> ask yourself whether you would applaud or criticize the same person for wearing that outfit to Wholefoods. My criticism would persist because presumably the same person wears that outfit to Wholefoods for the same reason: garnering attention. Wearing baggy cotton trousers and a grubby, loose t-shirt looks scruffy in the workplace or Wholefoods but has a purpose: comfort. Wearing Daisy Duke shorts to the workplace or Wholefoods has a purpose: garnering attention. Anything that is designed or intended to attract attention is by definition a distraction. That's where the differentiation arises. It's irrelevant whether that attention is inappropriate due to objectification, the point is that the mental effort to overcome the context-shift is distractive.
