As women I wish we would embrace and uplift each other instead of constantly beating each other down. I also hate to see other women in public overtly and covertly belittle another woman who likes to flaunt her goodies. If she's got it, she's got it. I think a confident woman who is comfortable in her own skin is the most beautiful thing.

Considering the fact that the mini skirt was invented by a woman (Mary Quandt) and the sole purpose was to make visible/present/sell the stockings she designed. And that mini skirts often have been a sign of the sexual liberation of women (in the 1960s or the Punk look) - I love them!... What's wrong about mini skirts? My female point of view!
What worries me more are men who think that women in mini skirts are (sexually) obtainable and that women who are sexually offensively-minded are ready to do it with anyone! This is the real problem and far more dangerous than a few narrow-minded, conservative women who believe what their husbands say.
Besides, who is to judge whether a woman would look attractive (to whom?) in a mini skirt or not? Taste is disputable!
And by the way, who ever discussed the problem of men wearing short trousers - cheap streetwalkers, they are..... just trying to attract our attention and adore their wonderful legs?????????? Hit the gym, guys.....

I believe in having to buy the cow so I don't give the milk away for free... In this case I think mini's show too much and are trashy looking in general. The only people I ever see wearing mini's in earnest are streetwalkers- So yeah, if I see what I think is a beautiful young lady wearing something which I think is inappropriate I'm probably going to comment to myself or my husband that I think she could have made a better wardrobe selection... It's my feeling that if you respect yourself you don't need to wear things like that because you know that you-yourself are worthy of that attention without having to wear something that shows off (as Dave Chappell would say) your "birth canal"!

Well, if I see a woman that looks better than me, it's ok. As long as I'm with my girlfriends. I don't hate. However, when I'm with my man and I see him looking at the hot girl in the mini, I get very jealous. For some reason, I hate seeing him looking at a smaller woman. I don't mind being the size I am, hey I've had 3 kids and my youngest is only 8 months, so I know I look good, especially for having 3 kids. But, he is attracted to little bity girls with 0% body fat, and that just ain't me. Maybe that's why I hate it. It kinda hurts my female ego.

Yes, some of it is the green monster jealousy.
However, reality is that the more exposed people are, the
more other people think of sex, at least initially.
Most people do not want to live/work/eat/sleep in a sea
of hormones - especially if they aren't invited.
However, really pretty women and handsome guys will
tell you that even if they dress in burlap bags, it may be
hard to get anything done.
It is distracting to the whole community - and makes it
less productive.

OK well I do not know where you live but I am in California and it seems like people run around here half naked all the time. I do not care honestly... Now if they are like 15 years old and they wear that I think that looks trashy but if they are old enough why not? I do and I work out all the time, very slender but curvy, I am not a hater!!

Not all woman hate on mini skirt wearers, and not all woman who are "fine" enough to wear on wears one. Some Woman have more class than to go trotting around showing everything she has when she bends over. And some were raised to know that you do not need a mini skirt to attract the opposite sex!!!

It's not at all the mini skirt, it is the person who is wearing it's tactfulness. I look great in mini skirts, but at the right time, not just when ever! You gotta know how and when to do it! Otherwise people will call you names like slutty.. but then you have to defend yourself if you know otherwise...

Well, I think there's a more complicated answer to this strange phenomenon than just "jealousy". Here goes...
1. Identity = Appearance
Let's say you're strolling along and you run into some old family friends; a man, a woman, and their five-year-old daughter. You greet the man and woman, but then feel obligated to say something nice to the daughter. If you're like most people, you'll come up with something like "Well, don't you look pretty!" or "Isn't that a nice dress!" or "Did you choose that outfit yourself?" or you may even just turn to the parents and say, "What a beautiful little girl!". At least, this is the kind of thing most females would come up with for small talk.
Think about it. How often do you see young girls being complimented for being strong, smart, athletic, tough? Do you ever jokingly turn to a baby girl and say "Look at you, you little tough guy!" the way you might to a baby boy?
The fact is, most females are taught from day one through compliments, "fairy princess" stories, and gifts that although they should be smart and have nice personalities, what really matters is their looks. Think about it - if everyone commented all the time about your eyes, bought you things to enhance the appearance of your eyes, and told you that the funnest thing to do is beautify your eyes - for years on end - you might start thinking your eyes are an important part of who you are.
I'm not saying this doesn't happen to boys too - it certainly does - but I don't think it happens as much. And I think proof of that is how much money girls spend on maintaining their physical appearance, compared to males. Makeup is damn expensive, for example! I think that girls are basically taught that who they are as human beings can be determined by looking on the outside - their appearances - rather than inside. I think this also explains why girls often seem so concerned about what "everyone else thinks" of them - because if who you are is on the outside, the person who can tell you what you're really worth isn't you - it's the ones who can see your body!
2. Love = Happy Ending
Maybe you got to watch cool action movies as a kid, (I was a Ninja Turtles addict myself) but most girls watched and loved Disney princess movies - you know, Cinderella, Beauty & The Beast, The Little Mermaid, Snow White, Sleeping Beauty, and so forth. What's wrong with these movies? Let's look at the "happily ever after" part. What needs to happen in order for things to be "happily ever after"? Basically - true love! The princess needs to end up with her Prince.
Which goes back to another childhood teaching given to girls - you can't be truly happy until you've found your "One True Love". Obviously, this is going to make competition heat up when all these child princesses grow into young women.
3. Identity = Appearance + Love = Happy Ending = Miniskirt Rage
So now we've got a generation of women who have learned that appearances are the most important thing, and that you can't be happy until you find your one true love. So what happens when a good-looking female walks by wearing a miniskirt? First, the "jealous" female insults her appearance, based on the common idea that if you insult a quality in someone else, it implies you are superior in that quality. She wants to be superior in that quality, because she believes that appearances are really important. And good appearances lead to "One True Love", she must increase the competition. She can't afford to lose status!
Another important thing to note is that most females aren't innocent here, even the good-looking ones. Most of the women I know have, at some point, insulted another woman's appearance - from what I see, the competition is even rougher and more ruthless among groups of good-looking women.
Also, many women feel disdain for attractive females in miniskirts precisely because they are trying to find "One True Love" - or just a nice guy in general - through their personalities - but all the attention is going to a woman who takes the "easy way out" of getting male approval by wearing a revealing outfit.
The fact is, it's easy to criticize women who criticize other women - but it's a lot harder when you're raised to do it. I think the best thing a guy can do is ignore it, but when you compliment a female (of any age), remember to not give her the message of "your body is all that you are" she's been getting all her life.
In other words, if you want a more respectful female...show her how that's a quality you admire!
