If they're paired with bouffant hairdos, yes, it can get worse.

well, they are selling pedal pushers again except that they're calling them capris or crop pants and they look totally ridiculous on most people
oh, before they were called stirrup pants, they were popular in the early 60s as ski pants |

My boss admitted to owning man capris while drinking last night. The gays at the table even condemned it.

never wore stirrupsYour GYN just makes you hold your legs up? That must be uncomfortable. Even for a woman with very, very powerful thighs, I'd still think it's unpleasant. And rather rude. Does he make you hold your lips open, too? Can't the man afford a speculum? |

I'm reminded of a joke my best friend told me when we were in the eighth grade re stirrup pants. I'll get right to the punchline:
Every time I fart, my tennis shoes blow off. |

I used to wear leg warmers with jeans when I lived in Montana - kept the cold wind from blowing up my pants legs.

 Yeah Scruffy she makes me do all those things plus pull weeds outside her office.
Now I'll admit to owning the stirrup pants circa 1983 or so and thinking I was the hot shit with my big ass hair and my off the shoulder Flashdance shirt, but really now....when you can still look at old pictures of that fashion trend and bust out laughing at the sight of it what makes people think it's a good idea to bring it back? Are fashion designers just plain out of ideas? |

Ohhh... I didn't use a scrunchie... it was those little plastic things with the thing down the middle for the shirt.

scruffy! lol.
i pray daily for nonstinky jelly shoes. yay! i wear leg warmers with miniskirts and sometimes tights. it makes me happy if not fashionable. i have a passion for all things tights/stockings/kneesocks/legwarmers. i once owned a skintight pair of banana yellow jeans 
i wore them with a band shirt that may or may not have had george michaels as a memeber. double

I can't think of a single body type that looks good in stirrups.
