As awesome as it is that they even entertained the idea of female firefighters...how ridiculous is it that they were more concerned with fashion rather than function...

I would have a law passed that requires all firefighters to be in miniskirts at all times.

Fighting fires? Miniskirt.
Fighting foods? Miniskirt.
Fighting smalltalk in formal dress at some event? Miniskirt.
"Fighting" (wrestling) other firefighters in a naked calendar photoshoot? Miniskirt.


Its just a formal requirement to wear one, no restrictions on how it must look or how it must be worn. A belt can technically be considered a miniskirt.

Ya it would be a real shame for women to go one second without looking fuckable

W... Women? Who said anything about women?

This holds true for a great deal of contemporary thoughts for any given time.

Everything is arbitrary and we all make it up as we go along.

I don't know what it all was made of, but that outfit sure looks flammable.

Apparently a woolen tunic, and rubber leggings. Although this isn't the classic double-breasted tunic.

Wool and asbestos?

[-] FiskFisk33@startrek.website 9 points 2 years ago

Not really, wool is quite flame resistant actually!

[-] Drusas@kbin.run 3 points 2 years ago

I had no idea. It somehow just looks like it would be highly flammable. All the little fibers, I suppose.
