As much as you guys want to preach and say no its not true.. the truth comes out. So what if we wear a v neck shirt that has a little cleavage or tight jeans does that mean that we should be approached as a 2 dolla hoe lol. If a girl wears glasses and a business suit does that mean she rich or intelligent, she could be a stripper at night. God it will never change blame society I guess.

What do u think of a woman who wears a yellow business suit, and below her jacket there is nothing?

I know I have more respect for a woman in a skin tight spandex track suit than I do for a woman in a business suit!
What do you mean? Isn’t respect appreciating the finer points of somebodies assets?
I’m not black.
Now that you know I am not black don’t feel like you have a free pass to attack me.

Twilight asked:


In the business world, certainly at most management levels, men are pretty much mandated to wear a suit and tie in many parts of the world.

What are the reasons for this?

Are the demands placed around uniformity of male appearance as restrictive and stultifying to personal expression and freedom as some argue the Hijab is in the Middle East?

Might one extend the argument that capitalism is the religion of the OECD, and the business suit is much a mandatory way of dressing as the Hijab?

How far would such an argument hold water?

What do you think of the comparison?

Are suits a symbol of male oppression?
