 Q. Please tell women that low-rise jeans only look good on a handful of people. Whenever I go out, all I see is "girl love handles" (GLH) hanging over low-rise jeans. Someone needs to tell women who are overweight, tubby, fat, or just not properly proportioned to stop wearing jeans that show off or create rolls! Just today I saw a girl who would have been attractive had it not been for her damn jeans. GLH is never sexy, ladies! It's revolting. No one wants to see fat rolls hanging over the tops of jeans or bulging out from under belly shirts! There really are only a select few of you who look good in them. If you don't have the body for it (and if you have to think about itâ??even for an instantâ??you don't!), do not wear low-rise jeans! â??BUTTER WITH YOUR ROLLS
 
 A. I'm opening this week's rather random, slightly scattered column (damn medical marijuana!) with your letter, BWYR, because I happen to agree with you 100 percent. I simply can't believe we're headed for a third summer of low-rise jeans, high-rise shirts, and overflowing GLH. Low-rise is not a fashion statement we Americans should be making just now, what with our skyrocketing rates of obesity. If North Americans want to flounce around in belly-and-backside-exposing pantsâ??and apparently we doâ??we should get the obesity epidemic under control first.

If they never acted on the bicycle shorts fiasco what makes you think they will come through now.  I felt biking shorts should be outlawed if you are more than 10 feet from your bike...
