Agree about PH. My wife seldom wears Graters but the new Thigh Highs with stay up tops are also very sexy.she has some that are rather old fashion with Dark "Cuban Toes & Heels & seams. VERY HOT!

When I was a child my mother was slender and had no need for a girdle, so she used garter belts to hold up her nylons. I used her garter belts as a slingshot to shoot things at my brother.

I did however like how nylons were sold. It definitely was a different time. We would go to JCPenneys on Market Street SF and to the hoisery counter. The salesperson would bring down flat boxes with lids that held three pairs of nylons. She would open them to show the texture and color. Then B00M pantyhose came out and in frickin' plastic eggs!!!!!!!!

Years later I worked in the foundation dept at Sears and had to fit women for girdles.....Oh lordie I always had a need for a girdle but would not wear one.

Last summer I had to have surgery and afterwards the incision ripped apart and I had to wear a binder (similar to a girdle) 24/7. The last week of 2007 was when I freed myself from the confinement. yeah!!!

Yeah panty hose are a pain in the..no, I won't say it. And the thought of a girdle makes me shudder. Though on second thought some pantyhose feel like girdles with all that control top nonsense. Why don't they just call the darn things what they are? Pelvic straight jackets!

I prefer this type if I have to wear hose, especially if I'm getting dressed up for a date or a party. They just feel so sexy even if noone ever sees them. They're probably similar to the older style I imagine, maybe a bit lacier?

and NO that's not me lol...though I'd kill for those shoes

Gator -- We get the idea. The dang thing cuts off tops because it does not understand the concept of the aspect ratio.

Yeah, thigh highs are seriously hot.

THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!!!

nothing hotter than a woman in garter and hosiery...gets me going every time
