<\/a>You can imagine my delight at finding these wonderful trousers at the super edgy, superbly curated fashion site Ssense.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n Mid-rise. Four-pocket styling. Single cropped leg. Zip-fly. Partially lined. Tonal hardware.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n “Single cropped leg.” Roger that. No explanation necessary! Here’s another view:<\/p>\n <\/a>So good.\u00a0 All eyes will be on you, hopefully. It’s a casual look, and quite breezy on the one leg, but you can upgrade for a more formal look by getting the nicely proportioned matching jacket.<\/p>\n <\/a>For some reason, I think the trousers would be better for a one-legged person, don’t you? Instead of leaving that poor exposed leg to just hang there so vulnerably, a one-legged person would look great, without having to to take it to a tailor. I feel the same way about the popular one-armed<\/a> look in dresses and tops. I just don’t feel good about the bared limb.<\/p>\n Let’s say you’re Dan Cooper<\/strong>, a guy who is currently featured on a reality show in the UK, living in a house with 4 other “extraordinary” people. Evidently, viewers<\/a> don’t have much sympathy for Dan, who had his leg chopped off in order to feel “whole<\/a>.”<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Dan<\/a> has BIID<\/a>, and suffered for many years with the affliction of having one too many legs. Interestingly, this appears to be an extremely British disorder. There’s a great documentary somewhere that spends time with a few of these guys and they are all British. A Scottish surgeon got in trouble for amputating healthy legs, even though he was just trying to prevent his patients from seeking a potentially life-threatening back alley solution to their being bipeds.<\/p>\n Be that as it may! Dan is now a TV personality and people will just have to learn to accept him. Thank god that fucking leg isn’t tormenting him any more. But how good would he look in those mid-rise, partially lined pants at Ssense?<\/p>\n I’m just saying.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" You can imagine my delight at finding these wonderful trousers at the super edgy, superbly curated fashion site Ssense.com.
