Even if they were, asking someone to dress fancy is different then asking them to wear short skirts. There isn’t even a male equivalent of that sort of formal-yet-sexual attire because it’s so unimaginable that male sales reps would be demeaned in that way.
- thu2111 7y agoYou know a lot of women find a sharply dressed man much more attractive than the same man in a hoodie, right? People seem to be getting upset here because they perceive a "short but formal" skirt as somehow sexualised or demeaning to women, whilst being asked to wear a suit isn't for men. But why do you think so many men wear suits in non-business settings? It's because women like it.
- elil17 7y agoYes, I myself find well dressed men more attractive than men in hoodies. But there’s a difference between dressing in a way that’s attractive and dressing in a way that’s sexualized. Being in a short skirt feels a lot more like being in a speedo than being in a suit.
- gremlinsinc 7y agoYou know a lot of women have self-image issues about their legs right? Maybe they don't like to show them, or have a scar? Maybe they are bio-female but identify as a man, and would rather dress as a man, or they're non-binary and go back/forth but always dress up in Tuxedo instead of Dresses, or pant-suits... All of which can be business professional. They could've just worded it - dress like you're going to the Academy Awards and leave it like that.
