Am I missing something here ? How can trousers be described as indecent ?

Short and/or tights skirts I can understand, but trousers ?

Something like that, Togo. :o)

Tut! What a thing to say! Didn't you know they abandon their funny foibles and odd beliefs the moment they hit our shores? None of them who have come to live here think like that!! The very idea!

[Togo]

Do they cover up their Camels toes in the desert?

I wonder if mikey (yet again) failed to read the link?

Beep Beep Speak, Talbot. The gospel according to Mikey. No need to read, just retransmit. Echo chamber ding dong.

Is not that long ago that women wearing trousers in the UK was considered quite shocking, mikey.
If you can't see how trousers can be provocative when worn by some women you must be blind. Pert bottoms and camel toes never passed your eyeline?

[Togo]

I don't wear mine like that hc. Must be quite uncomfortable for you. :))

It's only a very few years ago that the law was changed in France. The Gendarmettes (yes, they call them that) discovered that their trousered uniform was illegal so the law was eventually changed. Can't remember just when, 6 or 7 yrs ago perhaps.

[naomi24]

I don't expect Sudan to change its preferences any time soon.

[hc4361]

If I wore my trousers that tight it wouldn't be a camel toe, togo.
Just the hump
:D

I presume this is what Jourdain refers to.

It would be nice to think changes may happen elsewhere but maybe thinking is all it can be.

// caught wearing trousers //.....// morality police //

Says it all really. Sudan is a retarded ***, we should all just be thankful we don't live there.

You can't even see the shape of the women's bums, legs or anything else in those trousers.

The image on the link is a 'file/library image' - I'm not sure we have seen pictures of what the actual women were wearing, still stinks all the same.
