I don't remember when, precisely, did
the harem pants burst on the fashion scene - as anyone who knows me
personally would attest, fashion is not on my top ten list. But for
the last couple of years I have been reading periodic complains from
the guys claiming that that is the ugliest piece of clothing they had
ever seen, that seeing a woman in it really turns them off, etc.,
etc., etc.
In this case I have to agree with men.
First of all, I really don't know how would any self-respected
Westerner use the word “harem” in any kind of positive light,
but, I guess, a lot of lefties attach too much mystique and romance
to this concept. That, of course, is mainly a topic for another
discussion; however, the fact remains – those blessed pants are
butt ugly and the women wearing them usually look like they have a
full diaper. The only pro argument I can see is that maybe they are
super comfortable.
The other fashion item that have been
boggling my mind for far longer, however, is what I call “extra
long professional pants”. As far as I can see, they were designed
to cover the whole shoe in case the wearer also has high heels on –
which I, honestly, don't understand. What's with this Victorian urge
to cover the feet and the shoes – especially if half the time you
get cleavage on top? Not only this, but these pants are usually worn
with low heels and flats, in which case they bunch up rather
unattractively, collect the dirt from the floors and the ground, and
get torn a lot of times. How is that professional attire?
Color me challenged in the fashion
department, but I don't get either of these things.
