Skirt management

[oggbashan]

LOL

I knew that, more or less. But the point I wanted to make is, there are women for whom a 46" waist would be in proportion to the rest of her.

So, call me stubborn.

Even if she was seven feet tall, a nine inch length of skirt would not be flattering. In the mid-1960s my then girlfriend used to wear a ten-inch mini kilt. She was six feet two inches in her bare feet with a twenty-four inch waist and looked stunning. She wore Mary Quant pantyhose. With her high heels on she was taller than I was (I'm shorter now than I was then) and with her hair up I was out of the contest except when wearing my bowler hat.

She was a Phys Ed teacher and a very good amateur tennis player. Watching her play tennis was a popular spectator sport. At the time I was fairly athletic which is difficult to believe now. I played rugby, rowed number 5 in an eight, entered motorcycle cross-country races, did rock-climbing, ran cross countries, and whisper it quietly hunted foxes on horseback.

Even so I found it an effort to keep up with her activities.

Later I had a big girlfriend. She also was six feet two inches in her bare feet but built like a heavyweight wrestler. She weighed over two hundred pounds and most of that was muscle. Her 'mini skirts' were at least fifteen inches long but she changed to maxis as soon as they were fashionable.

I wasn't sure that I could have won a fight with either of them.

Thank God I'm near sighted. Can't read small print.

Would you have wanted to???

No. It might have been interesting. I didn't have to fight them.

It was more enjoyable being friends with them. When I was with the Phys Ed teacher I used to meet her in the Kings Road after work. She would have had time to change into her fashionable clothes. I would still be wearing my Civil Servant's uniform of handmade dark pinstripe suit with bowler hat, rolled umbrella and carrying an OHMS (On Her Majesty's Service) black briefcase even when we went to the rock and roll coffee bars. Sometimes I would get unpleasant comments from the other customers. It didn't result in anything because I was so large and fit. The more usual reaction was jealousy. She was a spectacular companion. We drifted apart amicably because her interests and mine differed. I liked the theatre, opera and ballet. Her idea of enjoyment was a 10k run and I wasn't the build for distance running.

The larger lady was from the County Set. Most of her friends had money and titles and I found that keeping up with her interests was beyond my means. The tickets for one ball at The Grosvenor cost twentyfive pounds each (in 1966) and I was expected to have several evening suits. One was expensive enough. Although she was a student nurse she thought that six formal gowns wasn't enough for living and partying in London. Her student nurse pay was about one hundreth of her private income. Daddy kept two hunters (horses) just for her weekends. The horses had to be up to her weight and fast enough to keep up with the hounds. The upkeep cost of those horses would have bought me a three-bedroomed house. The price of the horses was about the same as a Rolls-Royce. I had to take second place to the horses.

Og, when did you first notice the hostility to foxes thing? Frankly I think the idea of running after a fox on horseback is ridiculous.

It was forty years ago. Attitudes have changed. Fox-hunting then was a country sport that was acceptable.

With my weight there was no way that any horse was going to keep me close to the hounds. I followed the hunt, riding as fast as my horse could reasonably manage, but never saw the foxes we were hunting. I saw other foxes who were nipping around the hedgerows half a mile behind the hounds but not the real quarry.

As a Boy Scout I used to trap rabbits for my supper, killing them myself, skinning and preparing them before cooking over an open fire. That would not be allowed today.

I used to catch trout with my bare hands, tickling them. I caught freshwater crayfish - a wonderful meal. I even had baked hedgehog that I wasn't too convinced was edible.

The present UK government seems to be so convinced of its own righteousness about animal welfare that I would not be surprised if they banned fishing with rod and line and in a few years eating any animal products.

I am glad that I can say I USED to hunt. If I were fit enough to do it now I wouldn't because it would offend people I like. I might follow a drag-hunt. That is really what I was doing then. I was dragging behind all the lighter riders and I was left to shut all the field gates.

*shrug*

I was merely joking about the fox hunt.
When I was in Spain I really surprised myself.
Visiting a bull fight, I told my family they should not be offended if I left.
Hehehe. I found it fascinating.
Seems I'm more bloodthirsty than I knew.

It IS quite fascinating. And if we talk about morality, then I don't really see the problem either. As long as I eat burgers because they taste good (I could eat soy beans instead) I too am killing cows for the entertainment value.

Og, I love you!

I don't know many people other than you who'd notice something like that! Thank you for bringing a smile to my face today

Doesn't it make you think that Og is just a pseudonym for Carson S or Rhys? Especially with his alternative female persona.

In my experience, there are few men who notice the clothes you are wearing - they are more concerned with the flesh they can see.

Og, it's time to come out!!

Why should I be different from other men? Yes I notice the flesh but I also notice the skill of presenting yourself in the best light. I don't find total nudity very attractive nor an over-stated display.

Perhaps my only difference is that I look, notice, deduce from the evidence and state a hypothesis. An artist does that. So does a poet. Why can't a writer of porn observe as well?

Og is on his own with this one.

The current local fashion for women of almost all ages appears to be tiered skirts in all lengths from mini to floor.

The older women who would have worn the floaty fashions of the 1980s seem to have no trouble with managing their full skirts. However the younger women who were wearing short denim skirts a couple of months ago seem to have no idea.

I have seen skirts hanging out of car doors and dragging on the ground, skirts caught in doors (revolving doors seem the worst), heels caught on hems, and skirts trailed into dog-shit when sitting down at tables at picnic sites. Some of the women seem less skilled than a just-out-of-the-closet transvestite.

I have been enjoying the view when the wind blows and locally it blows almost every day which is why a wind farm is nearing completion off-shore.

Any tips on how lightweight tiered skirts should be managed?

I think there is a story in there somewhere.

PS. Some of them are also making Princess Diana's mistake - wearing a lightweight skirt that is transparent against the sun with nothing underneath, not even a thong. It's bad for Og's ancient heart.

They are not here. They are in TO and NYC jean, with pockets again, but follow the scent Og The scent and promise of panties is in every straight man's vision. Any skirt is accessible
