the order of the boot

we have been debating women's boots today. although this wasn't a mass debate (in the durant sense, for those RBSers amongst you) it has come close because the principle features of Riga are (in no particular order) :-
- churches
- kinky boots
- women's bottoms
the crux of the debate has been why there are quite so many women wearing knee+ high boots of all different varieties. Compared to (say) London, or even Rome. These are our conclusions. Since all of their bottoms are perfect (or as close as makes no difference), bottom perfection alone is clearly no discriminator. Also it gets pretty cold around here in winter, so a long boot is both practical in keeping the legs warm and looks damn good too. Evolutionary theory would predict the non-survival of the lesser traits, so explaining the dominance of the boot-wearing, perfect-bottomed nymphomaniac*

(*) i have assumed the latter trait as a natural future discriminator now that almost all are wearing kinky boots

We assume that the women of Riga most probably have the strongest ankles in the world, since it looks pretty damn hard to walk on the cobbles in those things and maintain the elegance that is most definitely in evidence. So we are taking great care not to air these opinions in public for fear of a fatal kick to the privates
