Many, many exist. It was pointed out to me recently that I've never worn anything that couldnt be classed as a mini skirt or mini dress.

I'm not ashamed

I think you just can't stand the cold(no sh1t you say) but we do see many a young lady baring beautiful legs in the winter time especially on a night out so whats your real excuse? :P

My AH answer is :City full of killjoys.

My intellectual answer is that this is a highly anti-feminist move that restricts the freedoms of women to dress their body as they please. Most normal people wouldn't really class low cut jeans as that revealing anyway, as things go. And Italy is hot, what are these women supposed to do, walk around in fecking knitwear all year round?

Feminists would say that women shouldnt objectify themselves by pandering to men by wearing revealing clothes.

Mini-skirts have been deemed as anti-social behaviour by an Italian Mayor so do Ah'ers think they should be banned in Ireland also?;)

Feminists would say it is a woman's own decision if she wants to pander to men by wearing revealing clothes. Feminism is about equality and freedom, even if you want to do stupid stuff with that freedom.

Also i haven't felt any german girls legs so i don't know. However it could also be becuase the ratio of males to females in this city is about 12:1. Sooo.... girls don't need to make the effort, if they want to pull it's no problem!

No. He has no known church and did not start the formality of the priesthood. The Romans did.

Are the Italians as conservative, or is it just their elected officials?

FlutterinBantam

Hmmmm.....

The Flutther was 'darting' into Connolly last week, engrossed in the Indo crossword when this bint sashayed into the carriage at Harmonstown.

Heavy set cow she was, and plonked herself down fornenced the Flutt, with a set of thighs on her that could kick start a 747, and a micro mini trying vainly to keep herself together.

When the Flutther finally summoned up the courage to glance upwards,he was confronted by a set of butter coloured thighs and at the apex was a ****ing mound of flesh barely contained by a flimsy thong which was stretched to it's limits, and stained by what looked like dried in tomato soup:eek:

Think of a plastic bag crammed with chicken fillets.

The Flutt took in the scene and the lady in question noticed and spread the buttery lads a little more exposing a cavernous arse crack whose stygian darkness accommodated a grimy thong string with generous ease.

Too much for the Flutt who exited at Clontarf and took the next available transport.:eek:

Nothing wrong with the old miniskirt, but there's nothing skirt like about the strip of material some wans wear nowadays. Unfortuantely it all smacks of desperation.

Think of Berlusconi, like the Tories all 'family conservative' types. Me thinks they need to get out more!

When I was last in Milan, there were scantily clad young girls in mini-skirts(just like what you see here!) dancing on the bar. Message been is that Italy is still a very nice place to visit despite what some nut-job is proposing!

Yeh right!

No.

Funny you should mention it actually, saw this one girl today, OMFG;) I never usually stare but I said **** it, she wears a skirt like that so she must expect me to stare:D Bloody well dropped me fag and all!

Somone post pics so that we can have a proper informed debate!

As for the observation thing, a whole group of them, like here come the girls from a song and some ad or other, and yet, despite they all wearing the same stuff .... one or two are just drop dead gorgeous, sirens, sex magnets and yet, if you look at them they go all shy and coy.

The only reason "friends" was so popular, in the early days, was 'that' waitress in her short dress sitting on the edge of the couch. Oh I'm gone to jelly ...............

Maybe German women don't feel the need to bare so much flesh on a night out because they feel they're worth more than just being eye candy for men? That they dress more to please themselves than to attract a man?

It was my impression of the German women I've met, (and Swedes, Norwegians and Dutch for example) that their self-esteem is not so much bound up in how attractive they appear to men and pandering to what they like, whether that's clubbing or in their daily lives and they don't need to feel validated by men.

They seem to be much more feminist in their way of thinking about this than the average Irish woman who seem to take their cue for how they dress up on a night out (mini-skirts, tits out, loads of make-up, staggering along drunkenly in high heels,)from working class English culture.
Sad really IMO. It's something we do far too much of actually in this country-aping the worst parts of English culture.

Not saying all Irish women are like that of course not (I don't dress like that and I still look good ) but you only have to look at the indecorous sight of gaggles of females out on the tear for a night out in any town in the country to see what I mean.
