Quoting 2tallgary:

A few years ago, I heard, a very intelligent, wise radio talk show host, who is not that well known, discuss, an essay he wrote. It is called, "The death of the skirt". He lamented the fact, that fewer, and fewer girls, and women, are wearing skirs, or dresses, recently. The Britney Spears look, of looking like a slut, in hiohugger jeans, and top, cut above the navel, dominates. I find it despicable, and immodest, and unattractive. A lady author, wrote a book, several years ago, called, "A Return To Modesty". I myself, don't see that much old fashioned modesty, around. The female, that I rent from, is 47, and has not worn a dress, or skirt, since about 10 yr old! I know of a number of women, who only wear pants, even at church, or special occasions. I am not against women's rights, and equality, but, there are differences, and, I find it sad, to see so many gals, who will not wear a dress, or skirt. Look at old photos, and drawings, of people, in past generations. ALL the girls, and ladies wore dresses, and skirts! And, I don't mean mini-skirts! I don't say, that all gals should wear ankle length skirts, and dresses! But, as Dennis Prager, semmed to say, it robs them of some of their beauty, if they never wear dresses, or skirts. As a man, I prefer gals, to look more feminine, and wear dresses, and skirts, part of the time. I think it makes society healthier, less depressing. One thing is for sure- if men started wearing dresses, and skirts, en masse, they would be branded sick, perverted, and, I am not advocated such a thing. But, women have dressed just like men, for decades, and cut off their hair, and nothing is said! Ladies, none of you may be boycotting dresses, and skirts, but, there are many, who will not wear them. That is a right. But I don't know one guy, who does not appreciate gals looking nice, in dresses, or skirts, short, or long. I also lament, "the death of the skirt".
