I'm not as much a leotard-man as I am a tights-man, but I'd be a lousy excuse for a B.L.B.M. poster if I didn't recommend "Stayin' Alive" (the sequel to "Saturday Night Fever") The movie's a total joke, but the leotard and tights action is a dream come true... Also, do you read comic books at all? If you're into leo's, you'll probably get a jolt out of one issue of Rumiko Takahashi's romantic comedy "Maison Ikkoku" in which two of the characters are trying on leotards while being spied on by two of the male characters. You'll find it in the MI collection (published and translated by Viz Comics) titled "Good Housekeeping." Ms. Takahashi is also responsible for the series "Ranma 1/2" (about a martial-arts expert who, due to an ancient curse, turns into a girl when doused with water.) Lotta leos in that one! And if you're really bold, head straight for Dirty Matsumoto's super-hot (but unfortunately, untranslated) "Schoolmistress Michiyo." Leotards, tights, bathing suits...it's got everything but english dialogue. If you're intrigued, try 'em out! -Depon Answers to this message:
