Analysis of the rise and fall of skirt lengths

Skirt lengths have changed for decades. It was once true that short skirts were considered a vulgar classification stigma of lower-class women's dress and skirts shorter than knee-length were considered to be positively shameful and indecent. Nowadays, you must be soft in the head to think so and consider yourself an up-to-date gentleman at the same time. Men like watching scantily clad girls and there is no question about it. And girls who strongly oppose wearing short skirts in most cases have simply nothing interesting to show beneath them. The fact is that not for nothing do women wear short skirts. This is done so to bare knees, legs, calves and make your legs an impeccable lethal weapon (however this loses its value when women reach elderly age).

In a nutshell, the shorter a shirt gets, the more male attention it arrests. Most men seem to be ignorant of the fact, but let’s put things straight: this is sheer psychical abuse and emotional frenzy. Worn of some certain occasions, short skirts may be a cunning gambit. Just image all those hopeless auditioners, employers, examiners, interrogators. When they loose their matter-of-fact sober point of view and acquire assessment-of-legs point of view, a pretty woman can overpower them. Indeed, a tricky way to distract their attention, isn’t it.

However, there is also some zany relationship between women’s intentions while wearing short skirts and its actual effect on other people. A gorgeous woman is conscious of the fact that it is relatively hard for a man to restrain from giving several piercing glances. But, she likes it somehow. On the other hand, stare just a second longer and you get a smack in the face. This is strange, no question about it. Women like to know they look adorably but are not always fond of being observed by lots of alert men in the street.

Another absurdity emerges when we take under consideration couples. A man loves his girlfriend wearing mini dress. He likes to be proud and he likes to swagger around with her among friends. But when he happens to notice somebody’s starved glance at his girlfriend, there seems to be a decent reason to start fisticuffs. Wearing short skirts brings in also several other problems.

Teens and even pre-teens in modern society are bombarded with messages that say look sexy, get that boyfriend(s), etc. Everyone wants to look like Brittany Spears or Madonna. Unfortunately, it sends the wrong message to the male gender, and I can't tell you how many times I've seen young girls get subjected to catcalls and rude gestures and comments from men/boys on the street, yet they refuse to change their appearance. I tell them don't advertise what you're not selling, but I'm told it's the men's problems, not theirs. Well, they're the ones who are upset, so I'd say it's definitely a girl's problem. This is indeed a decent issue for reflection.

The tradition of covering one's flesh was practiced in former centuries, not because we were prudish Victorian snobs, but because certain areas of the the body, particulary the "trunk" area, were so especially fine and of a sensuous nature that they were reserved for only one extra special person in your life: namely your husband. However, those who refrain from showing these body parts are not repressed, better-than-others types of people. And it is not because the more intimate parts of our bodies, namely the trunk area, are naughty, but because they are so specially fine and nice that they must be reserved for only the most deserving of our lives. Nowadays, this principle seems to be devalued. Most girls want to show most of their bodies to everyone around and there is no problem about it.

Once you begin baring your body, people start looking at your thighs, your midriff, and your breasts, and what can these things express? To dress so skimpily suggests that you have little else to offer, and you use sheer blackmail. This tells others nothing of your true self. Your clothes will attract the kind of people that fit the message. Do you want a bunch of worthless no-account men to follow you home for one night?

When you walk past those awful magazines at the checkout in the grocery store; those women's magazines featuring "sexy" women scantily dressed, do you ever hear a man say, "Wow, doesn't she have a wonderful smile?" or "She has such kindness in her eyes." Nope. Because there is so much flesh showing, the men are not even noticing those other things. And that is what you will do if you wear those short clothes.

Sometimes it happens that some girls dress scantily whereas they really shouldn’t. Sometimes a short skirt can spoil your whole image and turn totally against you. You must be really sure whether it suits you or not. That would prevent a disaster. And, last but not least, before dressing so, check if there is appropriate weather.
Though it is not right, lots of people assess you within a glance. Bearing that on mind, you must know that shortening your dress doesn’t have to have the same effect on everybody. Some people may look at you contemptuously.
