clevemire directed me to this article on "Zettai Ryouiki", the "area of bare skin seen between a skirt and thigh highs". Apparently the term originates from Evangelion, though I don't recall such a thing in the series. Of course, by the end of the series (and I'm sure to offend some since so many people think its so great) it just got so weird and hard to follow that I've blocked it from my mind. All I recall about the show is that Rei and Asuka were kinda hot. And that for a show about fighting robots, there wasn't actually that much action. And the robots actually seemed ill-suited for battle compared to big ass robots from other anime.
But I digress. The article remarks how odd it is that the least amount of skin showing between the socks and skirt seems to be best. But they fail to mention as those socks get higher, that skirt gets shorter. I mean, socks are form fitting anyways. So I think its more the fact that the skirt is riding so high that is enticing to the eyes.
TV Commentary:
Criminal Intent- I'll take things that are obvious for $500 Alex. ( spoiler cut )
