Hi Eric,
By coincidence, I, too, was thinking later about the shot in terms of 'prison' rather than graveyards. Not of the mind, though I do see your source - but of breasts: that sort of sharp, rigid neckline seems so anti-feminine! But then, I have noticed something similar with women at weddings, at least, at the ones I sometimes had to present myself years ago: in efforts to look formal, smart and possibly wedded to the right guy, there used to be a proclivity for wearing suits that looked as it they had been constructed (the suits, not the women) from sofa materials. I wonder why? Come to think of it, maybe it did make the women, too, look like sofas were part of their build.
I fully understand why youth rebels against this choke-hold on spirit. The hell with the girdle! Save the whales!
