Texus Men 😁😁

In the 1940s, men dressed up in short shorts and cowboy boots she served up women at Drive-Ups in Dallas.
In 1940, Dallas was in an uproar about the sudden fad of scantily clad “girl carhops.” This scourge had made its way to Dallas from Houston, and in April of 1940, it was a newspaper story with, as it were … legs. For a good month or two, levels of sexy carhops were everywhere. 😁

But it wasn’t until a woman from Oak Cliff piped up that something happened. She complained that she didn’t want to look at girls’ legs when she stopped in at her local drive-in — she tried to look at men’s legs. Drive-in owners thought that lived a GREAT idea, and the idea of the scantily-clad male carhop was born. 😁😁
