Eek!! I bought some leggings!

DeeDaa, I though mentioning the " gynaecological detail" as you call it was a step too far for me, but as you raised the subject, it was part of what I meant by "lumps & bumps" (also known as "camel toe")

Now we have lowered the tone completely I have another question -

When did women acquire nipples?

When I was in my testosterone filled youth, the 60s, not a nipple was to be seen. Nowadays they pop up everywhere, never short of somewhere to hang my hat.

Please appreciate that like leggings this is all part of a scientific study, and not as Linda says the dirty old man syndrome.

And, before I get slaughtered, mens dress suffers the same failings, but I am not including men in my study.

Now Pompa you are bringing us on to the subject of bras, which were much more substantial for all in the 60s. Today a lot of women lean towards lightweight support or nothing at all

If I remember the 60's correctly, substantial is an understatement, more like Fort knox, impossible to get into. (enough said)

Also the few girls I knew back then who went braless occasionally wore plasters over their nipples, if they were on the large side. I was horrified, it must have been very painful to remove them.

It's a sad fact that the women who least need a bra often are the ones with huge nipples.

The 60s was when we burnt our bras. Remember? Plenty nipples on show

Nowadays, nipples can be covered by self adhesive circles which you can buy in lingerie shops. I have some in the back of a drawer somewhere!

I'm talking very early 60's, by the time bras were burning I was married.

Marriage doesn't affect your eyesight!

Agus it affected mine.....and being short sighted means that DH looks exactly the same as the day we wed

Marriage does not affect the eyesight - and I was assured by an ex-electrician/physicist that a wedding ring is not a Faraday Cage.

AC faraday cage would be the perfect defence against lightening strikes, but no defence whatsoever from a wildly swung broom.

Not a defence against the lightning strike of Cupid's arrows either.
