In the days when cinematic skin on display was in short supply and America was young and innocent, much attention was paid to a great pair of “gams.“ But the legs seem unappreciated these days. In recent years, I’ve spent a fair amount of time in a particular bar with a certain group of gentlemen, appraising waitresses well-known for their various…endowments, yet little time was devoted to the legs. Being a well-known and self-admitted “ass man,” why do I spend so little time pondering the legs that are carrying these asses around? It’s a mystery.A quick web search reveals that legs are still well-appreciated by some. The “celebrity legs hall of fame” has recently inducted the lovely Kate Beckinsale:
Yes, those are nice legs. Notice how the boot accentuates that vast and shapely terrain, with the eye traveling up and over the knee and along the thigh. On those occasions when we did discuss legs in the aforementioned bar, they were often clad in nearly knee-high boots. Boots and skirts…that was a combination we were particularly fond of. But a very short skirt, without boots, sometimes leads to less focus on the leg itself and more pondering of what is under the skirt.Maybe I just haven’t spent enough time among the right female crowd to gain adequate appreciation. Our leggiest friend moved away too soon. But looking at Kate Beckinsale, I want to learn more. Maybe start at the bottom of the legs and work my way up. Eventually I’d reach places that, to me, are more interesting, but I think the long journey would be worthwhile in itself.

This sounds oddly like the crisp prose style of a southern man!
Indeed! It has a distinctly Southern flavor: sassafras and moonshine. Ahh.
Some nice commentary here: I'll have to reference it in my upcoming column on "heels."
Another star recently recognized for her legs is Jorja Fox, although she is not at all my type.
