(33,224 posts)Were the leg photo posted by itself without the context of the rest of the article, I would have assumed it was a young man in a skirt.
If my wife had shown me legs like these on our first meeting, there probably wouldn't have been a second. That said, if I saw them on the third date, it would no longer have been a deal killer.
Knowing nothing other than a) the photos and b) the fact that she considered it important that DU and the rest of the internet melt down over it... first impressions are not favorable.
The core thing about this argument is the idea that she should be entitled to the guy of her choosing without the need to do anything to attract him, and that he is shallow if he instead chooses a partner who doesn't mind basic grooming.
She is, of course, perfectly entitled to actively alienate men, but the result is hardly their fault.
