LDH,
Quite frankly m'dear, (Madeira m'dear?) I'm appalled.
My mum said that when a sister kneels down, her skirt will cover her legs and feet entirely if the skirt is of sufficient length to be fitting for a theocratically minded sister.
Now, what about us guys?

Omigosh, E-man!
I wasn't there when it happened, but a very young, newly married, socially deficient sister in our Hall (she's the one I would have had to die to protect during the tribulation!) made my daughter and one of her friends kneel right in the main foyer in order to "instruct them" that their skirts were too short and should touch the ground! A friend of mine's blood boiled and she went right over to the sister to tell her she was out of line and then she came into the hall to let me know what had happened. But the damage was done.
The girls were humilated by that self-righteous, tactless, ... I could go on but I won't.TW --
