Obviously it's a ridiculous outfit, and no, I wouldn't want to see my relatives in it.

I wouldn't mind it seeing a model in it.
Like every year the models wear far LESS in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition.

At my age and general state of decrepitude, there is nothing I could possibly wear that "will fry the brain of sex-starved lonely males," unless the brain-frying would be from sheer horror.

(*"You Owe Me A New Keyboard!&quot

Reminds me of a story about some elderly folks (two men and two women) in a nursing home. Being widowed, the two ladies were trying very hard to get the attention of the two men, but their efforts were to no avail. One day, one of the ladies said, "You know, I don't think we could run past them NAKED, and get them to notice us!" The other lady said, "I don't either, but it's worth a try!" So the next day, when the two elderly men were out in the yard enjoying the sunshine, the two ladies stripped down to their birthday suits, got their walkers, and hobbled past the two men just as fast as they could go!
The first old man said, "Did you see something just now? What WAS that??"
The second gentlemen stroked his chin, thought a minute, and said, "I don't know, but it shore did need ironin'!"

I've seen some artwork with females (and a few males!) wearing the sweater, got a good laugh from it.

I know it's ridiculous.

But just about all 'sexy" outfits are ridiculous.

Japan's problems with young people not forging romantic attachments has nothing to do with "the women aren't dressing hot enough," and everything do do with Japanese culture's horrible work-life balance and its rigid adherence to antiquated sexist gender roles.

in "The Tall Blond Man with One Black Shoe".

Spoiler alert: There's a pic at IMDB which will spoil the set-up of a great sight gag. Watch the movie first, if you haven't already.

Mme. Darc passed away (at 79) this past August.

then they've got larger unseen issues that merit discussion...

How does a country that produces the most weird, deviant perverted otherworldly erotic media (or so I've heard ) get to be so repressed sexually?
