/jp/ - Otaku Culture

I'm not sure exactly why, but it is a cultural thing. Women there show a lot of leg, and it isn't considered slutty. that both said this. Skirts can be super duper short and people won't bat a lash. It should be noted that they also never ever show any cleavage like women in the West do. My guess is that as a result of this Japanese play around with leg fashion more. Japan also gets pretty cold, if you want to look cute you aren't going to wear a blouse and pants - no, you're going to wear a skirt and thigh highs. This allows you do dress cute, but also stay warmer. Hence more thigh highs in their fashion.

As for US girls not wearing thigh highs, yeah in rural places you won't see it, but in urban areas you will see some. It should be noted that lots of US women do not wear thigh highs very well and it often looks really slutty by using shit like leg avenue or something stupid like that.
