Two well-known examples of kneegotiators were
Daisy Duke and Pocahontas, although in both of their cases, they went a lot farther than just having "petite" pant-legs --- Catherine Bach's character wore her famous nearly-butt-baring cut-offs while
persuading the Hazzard-County officials to go easier on her uncle and cousins, and the historic Native-beauty chick would actually show up stark-naked when she went to assist the colonists or hold
diplomatic talks with them.
