    Hehehe. Geordies.

    I'm Scottish. So I'm quite thick skinned and I can withstand cold well enough. But I was out on Saturday when the snow was a couple inch deep and the cold was really horrible and biting, so I had a really long coat on. Everyone else I saw was decently wrapped up until about early evening when I was wandering about Glasgow city centre. Then the girls started coming out of the woodwork, getting an early start on their Saturday night. And it is girls that are the most noticeable. I was standing rubbing the feeling back into my hands outside central station when a group of girls wearing nothing but skin-tight white mini-dresses, starting just above the nipple and ending just below the arse-cheeks, clopped past with just strappy open heels on bare legs. WHAT. I was getting hypothermia just looking at them.

    Does what a person find more noticeable say more about what they notice or them?

    Haha, I was going to put a disclaimer but I thought - no, maybe I'll get away with it.

    I guess it could say something about me that I notice an underdressed woman and the length of her dress before I notice an underdressed man. But when a guy is under-dressed that probably means he's only wearing one thin jacket or a shirt over his t-shirt. Pretty chilly but not so eye-catching to most folks. If a guy was wearing shorts and a t-shirt in this weather then it'd be roughly as eye-catching, but I'm pretty certain it is much, much rarer than half-naked women.

    Police have issued a reminder to Geordies to wear their coats this weekend.

    Well, I can assure you that this Geordie isn't tough, even though I do sometimes look the odd one out when out at the Toon, all wrapped up. :D

    Hiya pets :)
    I'm a geordie ...(reference to a sunderland fan)

    anyway we up here are more used to the cold, and after a few minutes of the cold it isnt so bad infact ive only been wearing a thin jacket and dont see the point of padding up to 2x my nrmal size for warmth, when not many people wear trousers coats, loads of jumpers/coats but only 1 pair of trousers

    Thermal knickers can be quite stylish these days...apparently.

    I can just see the headlines in the Newcastle Chronicle - "Northumbria Police inflitrated by Southern Shandy Drinkers"..

    aw that's a bit uncalled for. The member in question may or may not be thick but there are plenty of posters from down south that don't seem to have 2 brain cells to rub together but I don't go around saying they are a good advert for how thick southerners are.

    I never wear a coat on a night out, but I'm a man and I can wear layers and long sleeves. Women, not just in Newcastle, seem to brave the freezing cold and wear skimpy skirts, heals and no tights. Seriously, I don't know how they do it... and then they start moaning because the snow or rain is affecting their hair and making their fake tan run.

    Bloody women (of this type, some of the vagina clad gang are OK :p)

    Wearing no undies keeps the flies away from the after club kebab! :D:p

    I've been out in quite a few cities over the years, in the north of the country as well as the midlands and the south.

    I can safely say that going out wearing as little as possible, despite the weather, is rife among young women everywhere and not just in Newcastle.

    I've noticed for years that, as you say, female yoof don't do "coats" or even substantial jackets. If you wear a coat, no-one can see your "lovely" body which is clothed in tight, low cut, vulgar clothing designed to show orf yer bits. :o:eek::eek:

    Girls would rather get frostbite and hypothermia then risk some bloke not seeing her "lovely" body in all it's "glory".
