Who wears short skirts?
We wear short skirts!

Twice now I’ve come home on the bus and sat facing women who should know better than to:

1. Wear skirts that short
2. Wear ankle length hose with them (who invented this fashion faux pas?)
3. Leave their legs uncrossed while sitting across from someone - or worse yet - leave them open while bending forward to get something out of their briefcase.

Short skirts on uncrossed legs ride up when you sit down. PERIOD. And ankle hose is just silly - if you’re going to put sheer synthetic fabric on your legs, at least wear the full length stuff so I don’t contemplate if you were scarred in an ankle-height fire. Now granted, I’m a girl (last I checked), and so maybe this inexcusable behavior is somehow ok among “just us girls.” But somehow being offered a view to places I don’t really care to see, on people I don’t really care to see them on… makes me want to smack them. Ladies! Have some dignity. Just cross those legs, please! Even an ankle cross is ok. Please?

And while you’re at it - please remember that the girls do hang out if not properly secured… I’ll save that rant for another day.
