First Ladies Night, Now This

Regional Russian Government Bans Short Skirts

In the only government more restrictive than New Jersey, a deputy (deputies have power like this! He should have been shot. Forget the sheriff) bans short skirts, outlandish jewelry, and encouraged to be modest with the makeup. Once again I must ask are you kidding me?!?!?!? To justify the move, he said that such dress aroused the "animal instincts" of his male colleagues. Doesn't he realize that's half the reason that his male colleagues come to work? Russia seems like Canada without the care-free attitude. They're not getting the Olympics in 2012 (Go NYC!). It is the simple pleasures that these people live for, which includes dressing provocatively and actively gawking at such wonderful displays of sexiness. I mean the best exports from Russia get worldwide fame on fashion runways. The men deserve to oggle the remaining beauties in all their splendor.

The only redeeming quality is that there are other male government officials who think that the decree is ludicrous. I guess they have some of those Annas and Katerinas in their offices. Fight the machine!
