Sure! But for a lot of people (especially men), roughly the same "decent clothes" are now decent for work, date night, going to the supermarket, going to your friend's rock show, going to the airport, family holidays, etc. In even the recent past, you could dress well or poorly, but you'd still have to dress more differently for different places.
I had jury duty earlier this week and was afraid I'd look like a jerk not wearing a tie. It turned out I was one of the few men wearing a collared shirt and slacks.
- sudosteph 9y agoThat's interesting! I got called for Jury duty once and actually dressed down more than usual. Figured that since I'd be sitting around all day and was legally obligated to be there (and not getting paid for it) I didn't really owe them any effort. Luckily the case got thrown out quickly. I never once felt underdressed or out of place though. It's a public duty, not a privilege, and you're not the one on trial.
