Not fair

"I love the furious youth,
And the crowd, and the gleam, and the joy,
And the ladies' thoughtful attire;
I love their legs; but scarcely
Will you find in all of Russia
Three pairs of shapely female legs.
Ah! Long could I not forget
Two legs... Sad, cooled down,
I remember them still, and in my dreams
They trouble my heart."

Alexander Pushkin "Eugene Onegin"

   Apologies for the lengthy quote. Couldn't resist.
   I want to briefly examine one of the hottest topics in today's American life, the concept of fair or not fair. This is one of the pillars of the idiotic political correctness movement.
   So, there are two smart, well-mannered, attractive girls of the same age. One with straight legs and the other with crooked.
   Is it fair? Of course not! And there's nothing to be done about it! No matter what the girl with crooked legs does, her legs will never become straight.
Society cannot, should not calmly look at this injustice! What to do?
   The simplest thing is to cut off everyone's legs, but that's not a solution. You could make everyone wear long skirts, but what about the beach?
   One could, of course, not go to the beach or visit women-only beaches (let them slander!). But it's a short step from there to orthodoxy...
   One might try to approach it from another angle, from the male perspective. What if we convince men that crooked legs in women might not be as aesthetically pleasing, but they promise better sexuality. Or even try to persuade them that women with crooked legs are more faithful...
   Still, there's no good statistics on this.
   Or maybe just spit on all this politically correct nonsense and let them wear whatever they want and be as they are!
   After all, we know that girls with crooked legs are sexier!
