Loincloths? For real?

The ultimate liberation item or man’s latest attempt at objectifying women? For reals? Modern loin cloths? Methinks Japanese women should not be embracing this new trend. Before you know it, we’ll be dressing like the Flinstones, and saying things like, “Zugzug!”

I do NOT approve of fashionable loincloths.

The Little Mercat

There was once a advertising tag line for swim-wear that said, “If you can’t drive a Jaguar, wear one.” I don’t know if that’s condescending or ignorant. Whichever it it, it’s not very clever. Bathing suits with animal prints first appeared in the 1950s. Cats in water. That makes sense. Then again, I can’t imagine that fish scales would be very attractive.

Bikini meeni miney mo

Beach weather is on its way. If you’re into wearing a bikini, it’s good to know a little about it. The first bikini was introduced in 1946. It was described as “a two-piece bathing suit that reveals everything about a girl except her mother’s maiden name.”
Considering the modest look of the early bikini compared to what you see today it’s no wonder identity theft is so rampant.
