Now in my 40s, I have never worn a mini skirt. Have always been hippy/bohemian in my style, so I have been wearing cut downs, floaty skirt and maxi dresses since my teens.
Men will always appreciate what they deem to be an attractive women. Plenty of women "perv" too, but "that's ok innit?". I really feel sorry for men these days.
Is it. It may be a bit of a strange question to ask (I agree), but it's the emotive language that people like you attach to it, like saying it is a strange question to ask isn't enough. Why don't you go the whole way and call men that look at women sex pests.
It's the same sort of thing as calling people that are eccentric, creepy weirdos and such like.
I'm not keen on maxi dresses as I have yet to see one in a print that I like so I'd go for mini skirt but I can't wear them at the moment as I suffer from chub rub but am hoping to get my weight down again so I can wear them next summer.
Don't put yourself down women are beautiful whatever size they are. I know a larger lady who is about a size 18 early 30's and wears hot pants and she is proud.
I prefer knee length dresses. Maxi dresses don't suit me at all - I just don't have the height for them and the ones I've tried on have swamped me! I'm a bit old for mini skirts, though if I go on holiday abroad I tend to live in beach skirts with bikini bottoms underneath, and those skirts are pretty short. I have worn them when going to the beach here too but I wouldn't walk around in one anywhere other than the beach.
Well I've just worked out that I own 22 maxi dresses and always get complimented when I wear them so one person I'll never meet thinking I must be lazy really isn't a big deal in the great scheme of things.
Though a little confused. The days I wear maxis and glads, I'm lazy but ther days I wear a bodycon and heels, I'm not? Both days, I take the same time to get ready so just a tad confused
I was just thinking that shorts on a woman look far more attractive than skirts of any length. Strangely even with black leggings.
Each to their own taste but I don't find the idea of women going commando or even thongs very attractive. Sounds quite unhygienic to me. White cotton are best - nothing floral or any other colour - though I can imagine that black has advantages at certain times of the month.
Though in summer pretty much any woman looks attractive.
How bizarre , I think there is only possibly one woman in the world who looked good in shorts and that was Daisy in Dukes of Hazard ! Ladies please do not EVER wear shorts.
Also the style you mention of shorts over leggings is simply dreadful , it's usually young teenagers who have no idea whatsoever about fashion or what looks good.
I'm too old for mini skirts so I wear knee length or longer. I do like maxi length skirt/dresses, they are very comfy and look nice and cool in hot weather.
During the winter I only wear trousers or leggings though.

Very true and the reason most men watched that programme!
Unfortunately it seems she wouldn't quite fit in them now!
However she is 60 years old and at the time she played Daisy in the "Dukes of Hazzard" wearing those tiny shorts was aged 35......not bad eh? Her legs were insured for a million dollars!
I prefer mini skirts- or rather, short dresses. Actually I don't think I've ever tried a maxi dress, I have a very small frame so I think I might be swamped by a long dress of any description, plus I find dress or trouser lengths rarely account for those of us with short legs! Perhaps I should try some on next time I go shopping. I think another issue for me is that in the hot weather I can barely stand wearing a short summer dress, I find it so difficult to deal with hot weather and even the thinnest layers make me overheat. I'm not sure I'd survive a hot day in a maxi dress!
As a petite woman, I find I look much better with calf-length dresses or shorter. I am also someone who likes to wear short-ish dresses with leggings. That look suits me.
I would also be really happy if clothes shops realised that we aren't all tall with a body of a teenager. Hence, they would realise that some of us would like dresses designed for people who are actually smaller than 5.3", and that some of us have boobs and hips too!

I hope if you buy it you buy a size that fits you unlike that 'model'! With those boots she looks like a tramp!
Oh I like the boots.
I like this one aswell, it's very similar but they don't have my size.

It may well be an area specific thing and you're right, Asian women can look very glamorous and often do.

I have got a maxi skirt with a slit in it which I love and one maxi dress which is too long and loose round the hips so doesn't look great.
I have really small boobs so legs is all I have
Haven't worn a skirt or dress since my 1971 school uniform, either short or long.

When I was in my 20's and weighed 8st then mini skirts all the way
Now I am in my 30's and several stone heavier then maxi dresses would be my choice. Sadly at 5ft 1in it's hard to find maxi dresses that fit.
Long floaty dress are very feminine (if that makes sense).
As for the thread all you ladies should post images so us blokes can make a considered opinion on the matter.
Get back in your cave you
