I wasn't going to post this article as it's focused on women wearing skirts, but a part of the article irked me:
I take exception to this for one reason and one reason only - men aren't allowed to express themselves via clothes, so there is less to object about. Additionally, men are kept in strict compliance of their allowed forms of expression. Significant others, spouses, family - men try one thing out of line and they are labeled a "sissy" or "creep" and must comply or face being a social outcast.Women’s clothing has been policed more consistently and with more vigour than men’s; skirts are just the beginning of a long list (see also: leggings, shorts, bloomers, crop tops).
I'm not trying to equate our issues with the kinds of outfit criticisms women receive (or even say "woe is me") - but it's not all sunshine and roses on our side of the aisle either.
I think if there was anything I'd take away from the article, it's this statement that could be applied to us equally:
Of course, all of this is just noise, and just as wearing a mini is completely your choice, so too is the way you style it. If we have learned anything from the regulating of women’s appearances, it is that you simply cannot win, no matter what you do.
So do what you want.
