    I’m older, so things may be different now. But this very much feels like an equalizer for the warmth (or lack thereof) of women’s clothing. We cannot be expected to both be sexy and warm.

      It’s not like men’s clothing is magically warmer…there’s a definite shift in the direction of trying to make men’s clothes into paper-thin plastic garbage as well. The gender isn’t so relevant when you’re wearing shorts and a tank top in sub-freezing weather.

    • Ok, how insulating is latex? Not very?

      This looks thicker. Still hot.

      Winter is the time to express your sexy inner goth, and also keep those wandering hands at bay with some hedgehog-ish defense! And speaking of defense,

      No skin, super sexy. Can’t go wrong with full plate.

      Death notwithstanding, hubba, hubba!

      Finally, there is no one more sexy than Diana Rigg’s Emma Peel, many of whose outfits look reasonably warm

      If that last is leather and not latex, then plenty warm!

    Ah yeah, that time in school my crush suddenly got cold and then got angry.

    If you’re going to be moving and out of the exposure before you start shivering controllably, give them your jacket.

    If you’re not, seek shelter together, once you’re out of the exposure, give them you coat to warm up faster.
