Actually, **anya marie** was the one who resurrected it. **Aphthartadocetist**'s post was the last made before the thread slipped into oblivion in July. 🙂 ---

Lo’s outfit in throatshot’s cite (the 2nd on the list) the same as the child hooker ensemble worn by Jodie Foster in “Taxi Driver”? Great minds must think alike, as the same thought passed through my head upon seeing the outfit. Hmm. ---

trishdish, you ask "Who exactly is wearing these flesh baring trollop costumes? " The stupid waitress at the restaurant I was at last night… This ho was wearing a butt-revealing short black skirt, heels, and a white-with-black-pattern top that showed off about three inches of midriff and which exposed her cleavage to boot. My dining companion remarked that said ho’s outfit _might_ have been acceptable on a cocktail waitress. At a _very_ fancy club. A bit of background : It’s a classy joint. Not too formal, it’s in a college town. Usual server clothes are pants and shirt. What was this gal thinking? I had some bizarre urge to lend her a coat. “Honey, it’s cold out. You aren’t dressed very warmly…” [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/if-i-wanted-to-dress-like-a-prostitute-i-would-shop-at-the-ho-store/112541.md?page=4)
