South Korean Law Might Make Miniskirts Illegal




A law designed to combat indecent exposure and drunken abuse of the police has led to much speculation as to whether or not miniskirts will be deemed illegal once the law comes into effect today.

The law was passed a year ago, under the last administration, but left-leaning newspaper the Hankyoreh argues the legislation sets an ‘authoritarian’ and ‘regressive’ tone for the new president.

The problem, critics argue, is the ambiguity of the new law that says ‘those who show their bare skin excessively in a public place or expose parts of the body that should remain covered, thus making others feel embarrassment or discomfort, are guilty of indecent exposure.’

Rise up from behind your Starcraft PC you South Koreans and stop this!!!

What?!?!?!? That's MADNESS!!!!!

Wow.

Talk about moving in the wrong direction.

I say pass a law which makes women have to wear no skirts at all ;P

I see now why Rodman supports North Korea.

Imagine if they tried this in Japan.....

*applying for the goverment job mini-skirt measurer*

hey... somebody has to do this job..

Title is misleading. They could still wear miniskirts either at home or over other clothing.

Legislating on FEELINGS is always a bad idea

Blame gangnam style.

I will be in Seoul in September for a week or so. Now that I know what's up I won't bother to take my mini skirts.
