A woman in a t-shirt can be one of the sexiest things on God's green earth.

I don't know, guys. I can't agree with you on the t-shirts or tube dresses (Exhibit B types). I think I know what my problem is: Overexposure to Land's End catalogs during my teenage years. After a while, I just started enjoying the clothes more and more. Granted, I like the way the clothes hang/drape/sculpt to the body. I'm at an engineering conference full of zillions of engineers everywhere and I'm thinking, "Damn, every guy looks EXACTLY the same." Women are so damn lucky.

During their rap sessions, wonder if the Brethren have discussed the possibility of having LDS Burkas for the sisters. Of course, they might also have discussed how this would make Mormons appear to the rest of Western Civilization. The concept of modesty would no doubt give way to the concept of appearing normal.

And when women are girls they get to play with all the toys, best of the girl toys best of the boy toys, woohoo for lego robotics and the GS. Yep lucky :smile:

It seems that others are concerned about the female body too. Modesty in the work place. I think that the Mormons got it right. Of course, the woman in the story may have her 15 minutes of fame and a few extra bucks now when the lawsuit is settled.
