That's all well and good.  My point about the Denver Metro area is that it wasn't that a woman 
*could* wear a short mini, it was that that they were apparently *expected* to wear a short 
mini.

Case in point:  One of the women I worked with at my job there was sharp as a tack.  She knew 
her stuff, was down to earth, and went after her accounts like a bulldog.  She was also quite 
attractive.  She knew how to dress for her figure and did so nearly every day.  One day she 
came to work in a tasteful slacks suit, and the general office consensus (*including the 
women*, which blew me away) was "Oh, all of her clothes must be dirty."  While she and I were 
working in her office, I casually mentioned that I liked her outfit.  Her comment has stuck 
with me to this day:

"Yeah, I get tired of being the technical cock-tease.  I need a break now and again."

"Then why do you do it?  You have a good enough reputation.  You don't need to do that."

She shook her head and smiled.  "Not in this town."
