Women don’t seem to wear hose at all these days. They just walk around bare-legged, in high heels or flip-flops, all winter long, showing their pale, mosquito-bitten or bruised, blue-veined gams ... for some reason imagining this is “sexy.”

It’s “sexy” like my greyhound lying on her back with all her legs in the air, looking like a dead chicken.

Don't let your greyhound hear you say that! She's just asking for a belly rub.

Women stopped wearing pants? When did that happen? All I ever see is muffin topped blue jeans.

I do not understand why or how women have bruises on their legs all of the time.

I might be in the minority, but IMO it's just inappropriate and tacky to not wear hose with a dress even if your legs are tanned and perfect. It used to be considered a terribly low-class thing to see a woman with bare legs and dress shoes...it just wasn't done. And please, please don't get me started on those ugly, nasty flip-flops. I hate them. They're fine for the beach, but that's all you see women wear in the summer now.

I wear pantyhose;I can’t go around bare-legged. It’s not as attractive.
