So . . . burqas for everyone, then?
Seriously, if you can't recognize that fashion norms for women and men are different, and can't tell the connotative difference between a sleeveless shirt on a woman and a tank top on a man, I cannot help you.

- mirimir 9y agoYes, "fashion norms for women and men are different" in modern American culture. Of course. That's rather my point. But what's up with that? Please say more about "the connotative difference between a sleeveless shirt on a woman and a tank top on a man". I don't see much substantive difference. They're both an assertion of physical power. I actually do think that "burqas for everyone" might be a good fashion trend. For privacy, given that there are cameras everywhere. But in professional American culture, it's actually men who are more constrained to dress modestly.
