What is your definition of a good Catholic girl?

I think most of us can agree that the term 'good Catholic girl' has changed over time. What is your definition of a 'good Catholic girl' in this era?

Update:

The answers I have gotta thus far have not really answered my questions. In the 1940's, a good Catholic girl did not have sex before marriage, nor did she neck however she did kiss her boyfriend...but not with a lot tongue. On Saturday afternoon or Sunday morning, they want to mass...etc. How has this era of 'good Catholic girl' changed from that?

    Maybe this will help:

    A good Catholic girl is one who loves God with all her heart, all her mind, all her soul, and all her strength.

    God bless.

    For me, the definition of a 'good Catholic girl' really hasn't changed all that much. She would go to Church on Sundays, read her Bible, and pray her rosary. She wouldn't have sex before marriage, but kissing is still okay (even with tongue). She wouldn't swear or cheat on tests. She'd pray regularly.

    NO, many Catholic have had abortions in the past. NOT JUSTIFYING IT!!!, but we don't excommunicate them b/c we know God is a forgiving God. If she takes Holy Communion (without recieving Confession), then it will be considered YET ANOTHER MORTAL SIN!!! She has to recieve the Sacrament of Recconcilliation or else her sins will never be forgiven. Luckilly, though, she can ALWAYS recieve Confession when it is being offered. Actually, most Parish Priests will perform the Sacrament of Confession on request. God Bless.

    Lol...I think my husband would think of a good catholic girl as me putting on knee socks, a button down blouse, and a very short plaid skirt with mary jane shoes. :)

    Truly, I don't think of a "good Catholic girl" as any different really than any other "good" girl.

    Lol, one that believes in God as Unique and has no son.

    There so many great women that have been led astray by the shame next to them. May Allah forgive inshAllah amin, but I doubt it.

    Source(s): Allah is the only thing that is pure goodness and he created all things and all things will return to him one day. That is a promise from your Lord!
