Take 5

Short Shorts, Low cut trio and The slipper Mascara Gang

Have you, or your friends recognised a sudden flourishing in the number of girls in
Factor1:
Short shorts
Factor 2:
Low cut tops (they usually come in trios)
Factor 3:
the slipper masacara gang (a gaggle in black mascara sans makeup)

I can understand phenomena 1 and 2 during the hotter months of the year, although this appears to be limited to the sunny shores of Singapore. But what about in the icy cold malls of Singapore? Yet these mostly fine specimens of female homo sapien seem unaffected by cold climes. A recent straw poll with buddies has confirmed that ladies persist in their short shorts, low cut tops behaviour even in December's inclement weather.

I know that the shorts manufacturers of the world must be cheering since the rising demand means rising output. Pants and Jeans makers are probably bemoaning their industry's declining fortunes and shorning off pants legs in the masses. Maybe they could use these to make leg warmers.

After a long discussion with the Missus, I have surmised that the said ladies are immune to cold climates. I have attempted to express this in a logic equation as seen below.


As seen above, Factor 1 and 2 still does not ensure weather immunity. Thats where we must introduce factor 3, the slipper Mascara gang! I can only surmise that somehow, travelling in gaggles of 3, wearing thick black mascara AND slippers must give them additional weather tolerance! It could be the shared body warmth of trios. Or that they develop terribly powerful mind over body yogi skills when Factor 3 is introduced.

Perhaps if we export this winning formula to women facing the terrible Siberian winters in Russia. They won't need heating, or vodka anymore! That might lead to a vodka glut in the world however.

p/s - This post is not intended to offend girls in short shorts, low cut trio and slipper mascara gang configurations. Of course, the Missus came up with a more rational explanation: sloppy dressers.

pp/s - Looks like I'm not the only one who has noticed this shorts phenomenon. Check out this loon who has been caning girls publicly for their short shorts!
