In my own home country I’ve seen, and all around most asian and western countries in the world I’ve read, that women are given leeway in most offices to wear as little as tank tops and miniskirts, while men are still required to wear collar shirts and forbidden to wear shorts to work on any day. If it’s freedom of dress the world desires, then why restrict men to long pants without giving an inch of leeway to any form of shorts? After all, does a miniskirt pass off any better an image than men shorts do? I feel the need to practice consistency for all major governmental and private corporations, whether it’s image or freedom of dress they support. The most common form of argument I’ve seen online is “men should refrain from being provoked by what women wear”, so I ask in all fairness that “women not be provoked by men wearing shorts to work” too.
