Women should be free to wear whatever they want. But if it makes you this uncomfortable, I have to ask, WHY?

Is the "style" value really worth it?

I don't get it man.

Unfortunately, they simply don’t make enough stylish, comfortable, non-revealing clothing for women.

As a celeb who needs to look good as a part of the job, find dozens of outfits for press tours, and have certain designers you might be partnering with, not enough time for fittings etc it can get really complicated.

Meanwhile, men have been wearing the same 2 suits for the past 100 years and managed not to risk exposing themselves somehow.

I’ve never understood why women’s clothing gets thinner, tighter and smaller the nicer the occasion, while men tend to put on more layers to dress fancy. Why does style = revealing?

Somehow western industry has convinced women to wear revealing clothes as empowering.

That's related to history of feminism..... Such clothes were a rebellion by women against the forced dress norms of men.

But interestingly, media and fashion industry glamorized them to please the male gaze and at the same time fuelling the feminist movement.

Women feel they are free to wear anything but...are they?
