About the time the cancan was invented. At least for actresses and other notorious female segments of society. They were showing the new shocking Closed Drawers--very masculine garments, you understand. Open drawers are a lot more practical if you are wearing your drawers under your corsets, of course. Closed drawers (or modern underpants) can be yanked down in an emergency, but are really difficult to get back in place after the emergency had been dealt with. :/ Ann in CT ____________________________________________________________________________________ No need to miss a message.
