Show WOMEN IN TROUSERS Many women are reported to be buying "slacks." They are often seen wearing- these costumes in the streets, and apparently find them useful at home. Does this mean that women will eventually come to the two legged garment as a regular custom of working work-ing hours? The men have no monopoly on trousers, and the women can wear them as often as they wish. Some people think women should always look feminine, and that they appear better in skirts than anything else. Many women are supposed to wear the slacks for greater freedom of motion, or because they like something some-thing new, or because they want a similar style of dress or something that may require less care for stockings. Women may say they are not conscious that skirts impede their motions in the least degree. A man will say he could not put on skirts and move as freely as he does in his trousers. The women are living very active lives, and they will not want that activity impeded. As to appearance, they look fine, whatever they wear. |
