Answer
Hey Fonzie,
I'm not goNna lie, I was very nervous from the time he stepped out to be sworn in. There are a few people who are stuck in the 1950s who think their should not be a black President. My attitude is, who cares what color the President's skin is. We had over 200 years of White Presidents and look where the country is now. Give the man a chance.

Answer
You've asked a good question. But you don't deserve the level of response received so far.
Still, this seems to have come from adolescent males so they aren't relevant.
Especially the one who suggested he likes a girl in a mini because he can "see more".
As if.
Look, the truth from a female perspective has to be that mostly no matter what sort of legs we have,
, a miniskirt really makes us look so much better.
Ever since our grans and mums discovered minis way back last century, they knew there was no way any other garment that made girls' legs look so good. And nothing compensates as well either for small boobs or a flat chest. When you wear a miniskirt and a top with a Peter Pan collar, nobody cares or seems to notice if you have small boobs.
It doesn't matter if our legs aren't perfect. A mini does magic things because it uses the illusion of length and appeal, the suggestion that there's something more - the same way we sometimes feel out hiking that there'll be an even better view or campsite just over the next hill.
And that's more important to me, and I think most girls. It is the way a mini makes us feel. Not how boys like it.
The truth is that even in the olden days of the 1960s and 70s when miniskirts were much more colourful and stylish than they are at present (just look at the old retrospective movies and the models of the time like Twiggy and actresses like Susan George) the miniskirt actually hid more than it revealed. That is, it showed girls' legs of course, but the rest of the body was modestly covered.
Mary Quant is acknowledged as the first true modern miniskirt designer. She first designed and sold her minis in the late 1950s from her clothes shop in Kings road, Chelsea. It was called Bazaar.
But it wasn't until 1964 that she perfected her first successful miniskrt, and minidress with 10cm or 4" hemlines . She then adopted the name 'Mini' in honour of her favourite motor car, the Morris Mini Minor. I bet the boys on this site didn't know that :)
She said that among the many factors that inspired her were the freedom the mini allowed the wearer. This was something Amazon and early Chinese women had discovered cent juries ago. As had Roman soldiers and the Scots and Irish who w]all wore a sort of mini skirt that had a hemline sufficiently above the knee to allow fast movement and comfort in all weather and climate conditions - cooler in warm weather and warmer in cold weather, healthier and more hygienic than trousers or pants that chafed on movement, did not dry easily, and did not allow good ventilation or insulation.
It's how you wear it too. Schoolgirl Chic is one good way. A Peter Pan Collar is another. Only poor taste girls showed lots of boobs as well as legs. The same applies still. Only these days the bad taste girls not only show boobs or push them up, but they cover themselves in fake tan slap and look even uglier.
Anyway, that's my thinking about why we can turn men's heads when we wear minis. Even more than wearing shorts. And you would know the feeling you get walking in the mall or down the street that there are eyes following you...? You also know it is always men's eyes if you're wearing a mini.
I like it. It is flattering and gives my confidence and my day a boost. I low wearing minis. They are stylish, fashionable, flattering, comfortable, and always chic. Easy to walk in and run too.
They're so versatile too. You can team them with tights in winter or at night. And with heels they become super glam, giving legs even longer length.
Take Alexa Chung for example, she's on record as saying her legs are really too thin, yet she insists she'll never stop wearing minis and schoolgirl chic styles because they actually make her legs look so much fuller, better.
Minis are great for most of us.
But it is really nothing to do with revealing skin. More the illusion and the suggestion...
And most of all, we wear minis for ourselves first.
