There is so much trolling on RIU.
Are you kidding I cannot afford a new one.. Go build the perfect one and see the cost.. Not for the average werdo.Thanks for the exciting link...wise guy.
Gotta love the free market. I ordered 3 of the different hot women ones for me, a specially built redhead for UTI, a gift certificate for GWN.... I asked if I could drop ship something to you, but somebody in their customer service said they had already sent 2 of their male models out last week and wanted to know if that was a mistake or not...then they reminded me to tell you the last ones you sent back had "I love Ernie" tattooed over their butts and don't expect a refund this time if you keep doing that... To each their own...Gotta love freedom. Gotta love technology.![]()

An advertisement for shirtwaists
19th and early 20th centuries, the shirtwaist blouse was regarded as the model shirt for the independent, working woman. A button-down blouse, the functional shirtwaist was valued for its ready-to-wear, workplace appeal and its simple design, originally modeled on menswear shirts. It could be worn jacketless and fashionably tucked into the waistband of a skirt, and it was sold as both an individual piece and as an ensemble. By the early 20th century, designers added lace and frills to embellish the iconic blouse, which was already available in every color. Articles in Vogue magazineand advertisements showed various enhancements, including elaborate details and stitching to the collars, wrist cuffs, and bodies that elevated the simple blouse to haute mode. An article written for the Pittsburgh Press on September 16, 1906, stated, "A very fashionable woman with a half a hundred waists boasts that there are no two alike." At the turn of the 20th century, production of the shirtwaist was a competitive industry. Although sold across the country, the majority of shirtwaist blouses were created in Philadelphia and New York City. In Manhattan alone, there were over 450 textile factories, employing approximately 40,000 garment workers, many of them immigrants. The Triangle Shirtwaist Factory, located in the top floors of the Asch building in Greenwich Village, was one of many shirtwaist factories operating in Manhattan at the time. This boom in industry helped solidify New York's status as an industrial center and provided jobs to the thousands of immigrants that arrived daily at Ellis Island.
The shirtwaist, however, came to represent more than a momentary fashion trend; the blouse was a symbol of newfound female independence in a time of progressive ideas. With their own jobs and wages, women were no longer dependent on men and sought new privileges at home and at work. The figure of the working woman, wearing the shirtwaist blouse and freed from domestic duties, was an iconic image for the women's rights movement.
