I loved the strip tease that followed this scene.

The mid-century modest garments drop to the floor, one by one. The fitted suit. The cloche hat. The pumps. Finally, there is nothing left between the stewardess, the ad exec, and their one-night stand -- except a girdle.

I want to know -- how was that stewardess planning to get that thing off?

In time?

If you don't think there is a problem here, you've never experienced a genuine 1963 girdle.

When my daughter was eight years old, I explained the girdle facts of life to her. I took her to a department store and let her watch me pull three of the darned things on and off.

THANK YOU! Please don't ever region-lock these videos!

Plus, it is attached to stockings, and, if I am not mistaken, she wore panties underneath it. Oh, yes, those were the days, all right. And men wondered why it took us so long in the powder room!

Remember the old Red Skelton sketch where he is imitating a woman trying to pull on a girdle?

....one was worn out by the time it came to pull on and garter-hook ones' stockings....don't miss those garments of torture AT ALL....huff puff wheeze
