The mini-skirt club...

No matter how hard you try, you can never convince a mother that a skirt is long enough. Arguments on the length of the skirt have been raging ever since the delightful little things were invented.Beautiful and carefree were the days of childhood when glimpses of pink underwear from beneath ultra-short skirts were considered cute. Now the skirt barely climbes above the knee and the mother goes off like a siren.
When shopping for that perfect black mini-skirt for that amazing party coming up, you would do best to leave all motherly characters at home."What!!! you want to buy that??!!! Its barely there!""This one??!!! I absolutely forbid you to go around displaying your panties to the whole world!"

Confusingly enough, mothers have no problems with bathing suits. Exposing of legs hardly raises an eye-brow there. Then why the discrimination against the skirt? Why is the skirt the target of such abhorrence? Did these very mothers not argue with their mothers about wearing mini-skirts?Haven't they been through the short skirt debate? Then why not spare their daughters what they have gone through? Or do they just get malicious pleasure out of irritating their daughters in the same way that they were once irritated?
I mean honestly, what would the world be without the mini-skirt?
Lighten up mothers....
