Castellammare di Stabia, near Naples, intends to prohibit women from wearing provocative clothing

 

***************************************

 

Could it be that this is the town's effort in the War On Terror?

MEMRI TV latest clips Iran's Enemies Want to Destroy it with Miniskirts (Iranian TV); 3 more.

(The FR link abov is from 2005 and so some of the images and links may not display or work anymore, but as with any thread the FReeper commentary is always the best part ;-))

 

*************************************************

Recognizing the monumental importance of this article and appreciating how very essential it is that the article and all conceivable facets of the subject matter discussed therein be understood completely by all visitors to the thread, I would like to encourage FReepers to add imagery of 'provocative clothing' so that we might all understand better what the term means in all of its various manifestations.

Thank you for your assistance  :-)

There's a famous black and white photo of men leering at a woman walking dowm the street (circa 1950's, maybe), who is not wearing a miniskirt, but who clearly is attractive. Anybody remember? It looked like it was shot in Italy, but it could've been anywhere.

Vote every member of that council out on their donkeys!!! That ruling is like walking on the flag, worse!

[DanielRedfoot]

That is a very wholesome policy.

If you could post any pictures that would be most helpfull, for ..education purposes.

And please restrain from the Helen pics

“We need something similar in this country for baggy pants hanging too low.”

I was at a convenience/grill store a few months ago that had a sign on the door:

NO SHOES
NO SHIRT
UNDERWEAR SHOWING
NO SERVICE

It seems that our FRiend Martin Fierro has found it and has posted it above at #12  :-)

 

Claudia Cardinale

For some women, it doesn't matter at all what they wear....they could wear an old potato sack and they are still smokin' hot.

[1rudeboy]

Thanks.

[GOPsterinMA]

Amen to that!!! Magnificent!!!!

[Stoat]

A great one, thank you :-)

Sophia Loren is someone whom you can point to when making the case that God does indeed exist.

OK, Bolivian / Irish-American is not Italian, but smoking hot in potato sacks...

Here’s a solution to the muslims ....
