Joy of Tights (aka pantyhose): A Small Victory for Pantyhose

Mesa Arizona is getting its Hooters Restaurant back according to John D'Anna on azcentral.com

For those of you who don't know Hooters is the trade name of two privately held American restaurant chains: Hooters of America, Incorporated, based in Atlanta, Georgia, and Hooters, Incorporated, based in Clearwater, Florida. The Hooters name is taken from an American slang term for a girl's tits; its logo is an owl, an animal well known for its "hooting" calls ("wow!" you say "I never knew about the owl's hooting call before" Fuck off. Sarcastic git).

Like my owl?

The appearance of the waitresses is a main selling feature of the restaurant. A Hooters Girl is a waitress employed by the Hooters restaurant chain. The girls are recognizable by their uniform of a white tank top with the "Hootie the Owl" logo and the location name on the front paired with short nylon orange runner's shorts. Originally, the shirts were white cotton, low-cut, pulled tight, and knotted in the back to emphasize the breasts and expose the midriff. The remainder of the Hooters Girls uniform consists of the restaurant's brown ticket pouch (or a black one with the black uniform), -(and here's the bit that will interest my readers) - tan pantyhose, white loose socks, and clean white shoes.

Hooters have their imitators - you can't keep a good idea in pantyhose from spreading!

Now this is obviously a small victory for pantyhose. One more place where sheer tan tights must be worn - standing bravely against the march of the bare legged hoards. Mesa pantyhose loving men will flock to Hooter's and their nylon meme will be reinforced. Guys who have never had a thing about pantyhose before will associate sheer tan tights with sexy girls and the nylon meme will take root in their brains.

A victory for women

But a new Hooter's is also a victory for women. It provides employment for the good girls (and bad girls) of Mesa. Especially those Mesa bad girls proud of their tits and legs. But I hear those rabid feminists crying: "Its exploitation. Women being exploited for their bodies". Like cleaning offices, working at your local checkout, in a factory or at a call centre isn't exploitation. And many employers want you for your body not your brains - OK maybe not because your body is sexy - but because it can scan bar codes or pack colonoscopy bags. Of course the difference between mind and body is false antithesis, but more of that another time.

(Un) dressing for work

So why is Hooter's good for the girls?

1. It's a job and that's hard to come by today.

2. It's a laugh. Well its got to be better than stacking shelves in Tesco. At least you can have fun with the other Hooter's girls.

3. At Hooter's you make the most of your looks. Feminist intellectuals make money from their "brains", so why can't other girls earn a crust from tits and pantyhosed legs.

Hooters girls say "arseholes" to their critcs

4. At Hooter's you make the most of your personality. Working at Hooter's is for bright girls. Not sgirls who have book learning, but girls with social intelligence who know how to work with people.

5. A cute guy might see you in Hooter's and he won't be able to resist you in your tan pantyhose.

And Hooter's girls in pantyhose are good for all us girls. They make pantyhose more acceptable. They make more guys want girls in pantyhose. That's good for all of us who don't have perfect legs or think tights and pantyhose are cool.

After work

A victory for men

Obviously guys who like pantyhose will enjoy Hooters. But more men will see how sexy pantyhose can be and get into the look, feel and smell of 'hose.

Guys don't you love these girls?

A small victory for the US of A
The economy needs growth. The more women who become pantyhose converts the more pantyhose are sold. Pantyhose are a regular purchase and provide a steady income stream for retailers and manufacturers. Girls - wear pantyhose - and create jobs.
