Things that make me say, "Hmmmmmmmm..."

[wlotus]

Sometimes I wonder if men who prefer "their" women in dangerously high heels and platforms have secret (or not-so-secret) control issues. After all, a woman in shoes like that isn't likely to be able to outrun you when you're being a jerk.

Hear hear...there is nothing quite like the female body. I like to gaze upon it, myself.

That said, I suppose I am too caught up in whether what one wears is functional to be able to enjoy the aesthetic appeal if it is not. Once I've established a garment is functional, I can then enjoy the sight of it on a body. If a garment is not functional, I don't find it fashionable.

For me the two are somewhat separate. I can't wear something unless it is comfortable, and preferably practical; but if it's on someone else who is okay with it, my range of appreciation is wider. I'm enough into art and photography that I like some things which are ridiculously impractical. Props, really, rather than ordinary clothes.
