Haughtiness

In Perek Gimel the women were haughty and looked down on others and they were very materialistic. They were very arrogant in the way they walked and in the way that they dressed. They typically wore bells and perfume to attract male attention. As a punishment Hashem said that they will have nothing. Since they don't have anything they don't have a reason to look down on other people.
      Today, in the media we see many women who don't dress very appropriately to attract male attention. This is the case not only in the media but in everyday life. Some women don't dress as modestly as they should and are showing off their bodies. Although this is similar to the women in Perek Gimel todays society is different and this behavior is more accepted than it was back then.
