I'm worried about the safety implications of bringing them back. What if they got caught in an escalator, elevator door, taxi door, normal door.

Plus I think it would be rude if you are walking down the sidewalk and your cape/cloak keeps touching people who are walking by you.

I am aware of them haha but I know that those who wear them also do not like to wear long ones because of the inconvenience they cause.

It kind of irks me to be spoken for, so to say, so just for the record: me right here, I wear dresses, and I especially like to wear long ones. We do exist!

Also, any inconvenience is a worthy trade-off for vastly minimised accidental flashing risks, for me personally. I like dresses, but I'm not always good at remembering I'm wearing one 😅
