...more than a tease. The film's pretentious direction and disingenuous thematic grappling do little to disguise its creators' real intentions. "Showgirls" is just a racier version of the ubiquitous Verhoeven wet dream: all the world is a stage, and all the actors are snitty, well-oiled lesbians in thong bikinis...

...with sightless eyes. The man was slightly built, had coarse, nut-brown features and wore the flimsy black short-legged outfit we called pajamas. My gaze fixed on his feet. He was wearing sandals cut from an old tire, a strip of the sidewall serving as the thong. This was our fearsome unseen enemy. I felt nothing, certainly not sympathy.

Women have more of a variety to choose from when they get dressed (or undressed). Not only is there a plethora of fabrics, but there are more styles to choose from as well. Granny-cut, french-cut, thong and bikini underwear all grace local lingerie sections. Highcut panties are a relatively new invention, designed to alleviate the problem of VPL (visible panty line to novices).
