I'm still amazed by the constant variety of people and the way the very design of our bodies determines the way we conduct our lives. It's kind of like 'here's your costume, so this is the part you get to play this time around'.susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16747450215034568033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8764563741359701027.post-82957116524338793482008-03-10T22:05:00.000-07:002008-03-10T22:05:00.000-07:00having been a clothing designer in a past life, i'...having been a clothing designer in a past life, i've done some studying of the whole fashion thing... mostly devised by men, who didn't have to wear the wretched stuff. a 'decent' woman didn't go anywhere in public without a girdle. and, in the glam circles just after WW2, women were told that if their cocktail dresses weren't too tight to allow them to sit down, they didn't fit properly.... there was no spandex in those pencil skirts.... and "always remember, dear, you are an appendage of your husband. your purpose is to make him look good."gfidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08452490194253665370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8764563741359701027.post-5445608012722753672008-03-08T22:11:00.000-08:002008-03-08T22:11:00.000-08:00Hi mathman - Goodness, memed by you directly and b...Hi mathman - Goodness, memed by you directly and by Scarlet indirectly on the same day! Okay, I'll give it a try but memes like chain letters stop with me.
