Waite until some judge rules on this one. the original ruling was as fine a parsing of the American language as I've seen. The intent was clear and the court knew it.

    I would assume that a woman not wanting people to see up their skirt in public would wear longer skirts. We seem to have a fairly strange outlook on such events, similar to women wearing low-cut blouses or tops becoming angry at men that then look.

    Passing a law penalizing the male for being a male, while allowing women to be women is a little ridiculous, don't you think.

    Well, it's good that loophole was closed so quickly. The original court ruling was issued on Wednesday, and here we are on Thursday with a new piece of legislation to fix that ruling? If only government always behaved so efficiently...
