The gown was almost wanton — fluid but curvy with a neckline that plummeted
dangerously. “It makes me feel sexy and beautiful,” said Natasha DaSilva, who
slipped it on for a fitting last week.
Cut away at the rear to reveal a tattoo at the small of her back, the dress suggested a languorous night in the honeymoon suite.
Except that Ms. DaSilva, who will be married on Long Island in
September, plans to wear it at the altar.
“Why not?” she asked. “I want to look back in 20 years and feel like I
looked hot on my wedding day.”
Ms. DaSilva, 26, thinks of herself as adventurous, but not so brash
that she is about to cross a line. Dressing for a wedding as if it were an
after-party is accepted among her family and friends. “For my generation,
looking like a virgin when you marry is completely unappealing, boring even,”
she said. “Who cares about that part anymore?”
Natasha DaSilva, that tattoo just above your butt telegraphs to the world that you're one classy dame. I'm sure your daughters will be so proud of you one day. "Wow, Mom, you really hooched up your wedding, didn't you?" Dreary old me, maybe you do become an old-fogey at 30.

I'm so glad I don't have friends like yours, DaSilva, bad company corrupts good morals! How dare you call being a virgin boring, unappealing, and "who cares about that part anymore", how irresponsible!! That kind of comment is so harmful to young girls who follow after every word you say and try to live up [or down] to your low standards! There are many young girls and women who are still virgins and proud of it!! You need to get around some decent company who can teach you that sleeping around leads to many heartaches and shattered dreams, and even death. Thousands of innocent babies are/have been born fatherless and many teenage girls fall pregnant, ruining their future's. Here in South Africa we hear of so many new-born babies [who are still alive] being thrown on rubbish tips, dumped on waste ground wrapped in rags, or old paper, left abandoned in public toilets, all by young unmarried women & teens who are scared of the stigma attached to it all, and many african women will be killed or badly beaten and ostracized from their whole family and community, all because they listen to famous influential people like you and want to be like you. I find your comment sleazy, irresponsible and immature. You could do so much good, but instead you turn something that’s good and decent into a joke and mockery!! I don’t envy any of your life, I think you will end up lonely and a very unhappy woman.
