The brazen way some women dress,
I swear they’re in need of a redress.
With swarths of fresh skin exposed
decency demands they wear more clothes.
Advocates for women’s rights (men mostly)
claim a redress would be far too costly.
And at a time when a woman’s wage
is below that of a man’s, on average,
less clothes makes good economic sense.
