Passing laws about bad fashion trends seems like a huge waste of time. Many generations have had cringe-worthy fads, and this one doesn't seem any worse than most of the others.

I'd just like to go on record saying that, within certain bounds of course, I don't mind looking at g-strings on girls.
Jennifer Lopez should be illegal, too.
