From personal experience, i have found that exposure of the legs on cold weather does not make me feel “cold” as lons as my upper body is covered. And i think it makes sense since walking and standing help keep muscles warm… also… the amount of insulation, i.e., fat that you have around your legs also makes a difference…

Trust me, manim, it was COLD! It had just turned from rain to snow when those pics were taken, but within the hour there was a few centimeters accumulation. And with windchill . . .brrrrrrrrr! The next day when there was still snow on the ground and it was still freezing? Still in minis. Right now the temps are kindof, sortof getting a few degrees above zero during the daytime but dropping back to zero when the sun goes down. I’m freezing right now wearing a sweater, long pants, and heavy wool coat. I can’t imagine how cold the mini-crew is right now . . .
What I have seen some more of since it really turned nippy is some girls layering a pair of colored stockings (usually the kind with the heel and toes exposed) over a pair of sheer or nude-colored stockings.

the cinnamon talk up there were pretty interesting and comin back to the point – yea why do girls/women wear miniskirts in winter? seriously i’d appreciate it if you guys didnt make the whole women species look stupid in the eyes of men. donning a pair of boots and knee high socks will not protect you against harsh winter cold. but i gota say the coats the girls were wearing were exceptionally cute… lol

I’d take exception on the girl wearing the pantyhose. I always feel that a good tight keeps me sufficiently warm on most days. The ground was wet, so it couldn’t have been too cold. Also, I doubt that these girls would walk more than a couple of blocks outside; when I stayed in Korea, I was often surprised with people getting on taxis to destinations where I’d normally walk.

FMS,
Obviously, constant complaining that it’s cold is annoying. But, most of the times, we just want you to warm our hands….ㅋㅋㅋ…

Half of them think that baring their legs in sub-freezing temperatures helps them lose weight, but then again they also believe that fans kill.

Don’t try. Seriously. Just google “cinnamon challenge” and you’ll see why you shouldn’t try. No one can swallow a spoon of ginger. And I’m not issuing that as a challenge. Seriously BAD I-D-E-A.

I don’t know if it’s possible, but it sure as heck does sound funny! Anyone want to try?

“추워, 추워!”라고 막 하면서 똥코치마 입고 있는 거야. 말이 되나? 바보아닌가? 안춥다고 하면 그렇게 입는 걸 이해할 수 있는데…계속 “추워추워!”라고 할 만하면 옷이나 좀 입지?! ㅋㅋ

Hence, many Korean girls in the early 20’s seem to be suffering from about the same common sense deficiency as American college kids who seem to think that swallowing a spoonful of cinnamon is 1) possible, or 2) at all funny.

Ah, the follies of youth.

That look is so many levels of dumb I can’t even express it. Actually, I think the look I shoot women with zero degree wind blowing up their butts is quite expressive because it’s simply stupid. And they’re usually running around chirping “it’s cold” (in Korean of course but I’m too lazy to switch the language to type it in Korean.)

It’s okay if it’s Southern California where winter temps aren’t that bad. But what nitwit walks around like that when the temperature is around zero and the wind chill makes it even colder? It’s most definitely suffering for the sake of fashion and, probably more important, for the sake of attracting men.

If I were a guy I’d not want a woman that fucking stupid.
