I'm sure that you and the guy in the video are concerned that women are showing too much skin purely for philosophical reasons. Human sexuality definitely is not a factor.
Purely biblical reasons.

So funny that you should phrase it in just that way. Yes all Christian men are recovering sinners. When a woman wears provocative clothing it may cause someone to stumble. Yes men should strive to be blameless in thought and deed however it would be nice if some Christian woman would dress more appropriately. I'm not expecting women to wear a burka, just dress in a way that doesn't bear everything they have. A recovering alcoholic is no different than someone recovering from a porn addiction. Any man that says that he has never lusted after a woman is either a liar or gay.

Edification happens when the Body of Christ pursues holiness and speaks the truth in love with the barrier of pride removed from all.
1 Corinthians 8:9
But take care that this liberty of yours does not somehow become a stumbling block to the weak.
1 Corinthians 10:31-33
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God even as I try to please everybody in every way. For I am not seeking my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved.
It is possible to cause someone to stumble.
For every living soul belongs to me, the father as well as the sonboth alike belong to me. The soul who sins is the one who will die. - Ezekiel 18:4

This video is a rare glimpse of a pastor actively addressing the modesty issue, not as a ranting legalist, but as a loving pastor, concerned for his flock. Ideally, these issues should be taught by older women to the younger. But if that isnt happening in a church, then the pulpits need to address it. John Bunyan, author of Pilgrims Progress, once wrote on the low-cut dresses of his day and how they caused men to sin. Some things never change.

didnt watch the vid but read just a few responses and this would fit..
1 Timothy 4:2 (King James Version)
2Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;
if you do not think you can cause another to sin you are only fooling yourself.. todays church is no different than the world, you have women dressing like prostitutes in the church, low cut shirts, pants theyve poured themselves into etc...
maybe you guys should read this as well
titus 2 on the woman and study into each and every word..
the male can also do the same but not as easily
Relevant bit emphasized.
I made it 2 minutes. You have more of that what is it called...intestinal fortitude.
It starts off compassionate enough but then my spidey sense starts tingling away.
im basing my statements purely on the fact that many here think provocative dress isnt the cause of another sinning.. maybe people need to live by Gods standards instead of wordly garbage

Perhaps certain men should stop trying to offload the blame for their own lack of self-discipline and rampant passions onto women.
I think there's a difference between accidentally causing men to sin and wearing something in order to make men "look" at you in a dirty way. Sometimes I like to imagine wearing things that help my figure look better. It helps me with self esteem. I don't want to wear things that hide my body. I just don't want to wear it in ORDER to make men have lustful thoughts. If they happen to get the thoughts, that's one thing, but I don't want to purposefully do it.So do I..Oddly enough though, if I'm not mistaken, I think I am the only woman that agrees with the OP so far.
