Fashion from 1945.



There were probably some, brought up under Victorian prudery, who labelled such young women as 'immoral'.

Sadder still, there were probably a minority, who on hearing such a girl had been attacked, would say someone exhibiting bare arms and legs was asking to be raped.

Sad really, when victims of child abuse have their home backgrounds questioned, and what they happened to be wearing, instead of what is much more important. That being the fact that these men see these children as being worthless human beings, deserving of vile gang rape.
