Corsets for cheap online prices draw in customers in the twenty-first century. This is surprising because fashions in the recent past tended to relegate this particular garment to the 'out of date' cupboard. Apparently it is being taken out again and restored to its pride of place as a garment that is the foundation of all that is feminine.

The economic situation over the whole world has created headaches for investors. They search in vain for sectors that can yield profits and growth as they did in the good old days. Everywhere there are scenes of retraction and stagnation as demographic realities make their effects felt. Investors sit on piles of cash, looking around for places to invest that will not seem like sinkholes sucking wealth into a bottomless abyss.

Small bags made of silky fabric that perform the same practical functions as plastic packets come and go on shop shelves, sold for astronomical prices. Jewelry, home ware and slips of sexy fabric sell lustily as though unaware of economic chaos and mayhem all about them.

A woman who disguised herself as a man for a year reported the unnerving experience of being looked at in a different way. As a woman she bitterly resented the lascivious glances that men cast towards her, seeing them as being insulting and demanding. As a man she was unnerved by the aggressive, competitive stares that she received from those same men. In a short while she returned to her feminine role.

During the feminist era many women objected to the admiring looks. They took off their bras, wore trousers and padded their shoulders to look more like men. Most of these efforts were futile because feminists were unable to disguise their femininity or divert the eager eyes of males. When a male grows his hair long in the style of a woman other males may walk up behind him, ready to make a friendly remark. They draw back, deflated, when he turns round to reveal his unmistakably male frontal look.

More than two thousand years ago women began to wear corsets in order to accentuate the beautiful outline of their bodies. Corsets are designed to squeeze the breasts together, so that a cleavage is formed. The waist is also drawn in, so accentuating the feminine shape that can reduce most males to wide eyed suppliants.

What became known as the sexual revolution promised to offer women freedom to have sex when they wish, largely unrestrained by social convention and taboos. For many such freedoms were manifest physically by wearing nonrestrictive underwear. This works well when a body is well toned by rigorous diet and hours on treadmills but in many cases the natural softness of female flesh asserts itself. To make it even for irresistible some girls wear corsets with embellishments like suspenders and stockings to make themselves look utterly sexy.

The phrase, corsets for cheap suggests a rather mercenary, market related attitude to this item of female mystique. In a strange way this reflects the nature of sex. On the one hand it is associated with love and the highest orders of spirituality known to human beings. On the other hand there is also a lot that is undeniably bestial and banal about the physical realities of copulation. The two extremes are held together, figuratively, within the corset.
