I apollogise if this thread isn't something that we should share on this forum and therefore ask the mods to remove it if it is so.
But... Today I saw an article in Slovenian newspaper from 1927 (Narodni dnevnik, Feb 5th 1927) that the major of the town of Almendralejo (https://www.gronze.com/etapa/villafranca-barros/torremejia) did something quite, let's say, smart. The town's budget was on nil and he thought of putting up new taxes. Taxes on food, cars, fiestas etc., but was afraid of turmoils. Then he got this idea from the church that was complaining all the time about girls wearing skirts too short (no info on lenght in article though ) and that was put into town legislative. Girls/women were fined of course but gained one month permission to wear "short" skirts and they would pay fine again next month.
Girls were fine with that, town budget was fine with that and male citizens were also fine with that...
