Re: Worst Pennsic XL Moments!
I've known Flieg for thirty years. In a society predicated on honor, and one which he helped to found, there is nobody whose honor I trust as much as I trust Flieg's. Nobody.

They don't seem to be saying "they wore corsets." They seem to be saying "you can wear a corset."
It sounds like the corset idea is addressing our more modern rotund selves in how to fit a proper silhouette more.
