There's been an interesting/hilarious/informative argument about the moral merits of pants and skirts taking over the series of tubes known as the internet. Since I'm not nearly as funny as Simcha Fisher, I'll just post the latest and greatest links and you can chuckle for yourself.

And for what it's worth, I think just about anything can be worn in a trashy/immodest/provocative way. Are some pants naturally more inappropriate than some skirts? Of course. Can the same be said of some skirts? Naturally. Should we give a little more credit to men, that they can wander this good green Earth, not pouncing on every female they encounter? I should hope so. Though we shouldn't make it easier for men to objectify by handing out views of our butts on silver platters, I really see no reason to restructure my entire wardrobe to eliminate mens' exercise of free will. And while I'm certainly not endorsing Paris Hilton for her own clothing line, I'm inclined to think that even if every last woman wore a floor-length burlap sack from here on out, there would still be affairs, pornography, and lust. Thoughts?
You're right
