Ally McBeal syndrome

One thing that keeps bothering me is what women here find appropriate to wear to work. It's not that I'm an old maid, confused by the fashions of the modern world. Nor am I all that prudish. Showing a little leg is fine (depending on your office). But the amount of leg that I see walking to work each morning...it's nearly obscene. Sometimes it's just a shirt dress, that looks more like a shirt, over some dark tights. Other times it's a mini, mini skirts that would cover nothing if the woman bent over to pick up her briefcase. Very often their jackets come down well below their skirts, so they look like flashers on the prowl. They look more like pricey escorts than business woman...and if I can't help but stare at them as they pass me on the street, then I fear how them men in their offices may react to their outfits.

*if i'm able to snap some pictures of this epidemic, i'll certainly post them
