I can wear a dress to work and nobody criticizes me. I’d be really sad if I had to wear pants all the time, they’re just not as comfortable. Let’s normalize pretty dresses for dudes!

      Sexist rules in most companies, men are not allowed to show their legs nor feet, but women are, guess why.

      Dress code standards most places. It’s frustrating watching the women at work with skirts and tank tops while I’m dying because we’re not allowed to wear shorts or sleeveless shirts.

        Plan a day where some of the guys come in skirts. Bonus points if they are a bit too short. You’ll see how quick they change that dresscode. Employers are not allowed (at least where I live in EU) to have such dresscodes based on gender, that’s discrimination… we were planning to do it at the place where I work a couple years ago but when management heard about it they changed the policy.

        Fair enough, that’s too bad. At my work there is no such policy and there are a few men who wear tailored shorts in the summer but it’s not overly common here either I suppose.

      Capitalism, old dress standards, tradition…
