I saw a thread once asking women owners to reply and lots did. I couldn't find it in a quick search, but I did find a similar one:

I know of Two female owners here in Orlando and they don't post, they just use me for information - It's OK - Really, I don't mind

I know one here in Seattle but she's not on this site. But it seems like there are more than it appears. Not all of them are interested in Elisetalk.

I'm female, but I don't have any tips for getting in and out in a skirt. Practice?

I'm currently trying to figure out if I'll be able to get in and out of the car as I get farther along in pregnancy.

The trick is to pull it up to your waist (and like your mom told you...always wear clean underwear). Then you have room for your legs to move and get out.

As long as there are no perverts around to bother you, most guys would just say "Wow!" and move on.

No offense intended, I just couldn't resist.

Scoot as close to the edge as possible by lifting yourself and then keep your legs as close together as possible while exiting and do this really quickly. It really does take practice. I don't even need the valet's hand when getting out of my car. I think it actually makes it more complicated for me.

Actually I think I swing my legs over the sill first so that my booty is still in the seat, but my legs are out. Then push yourself out. Ya, I think that's the way. It's second nature now, so hard to picture without being in my car.

Halfway into this video (which was previously posted in the Video section) is a demonstration of entering an elise in a skirt - gracefully even.

1. Open door
2. Shift both knees to the left - pressing again the aluminum tub.
3. Bend knees toward you - similar to fetal position.
4. Place left hand on sill and right hand on passenger seat.
5. Lift both legs (but keep them together) over the sill
6. Place right hand on steering wheel for support
7. Lean forward
8. Push yourself out
9. Make sure you footing if secure (if you're wearing high heels)
10. Stand erect and discretely tug skirt down.

Depends on my mood, time of day, the streets I'm driving on, and people I'm looking to meet.

Wad up your underwear and put it in the snowcone holder. Then no one will see 'em while you're getting out.

Welcome to the site chirofox. I know there were some pics of Modern Wedgie getting in and out but didn't find them. Here is a link. It is in the video thread.
