        what's behind it is a woman's freedom to choose how they want to dress.

        Men’s bodies are not subject to public discourse in the same way. You don’t want to be, I assure you.

        I get it, Aspie. I thought the point of my comment was obvious,but just to be clear, that was my point. BTW, I think we're on the same team.

        You can dress modestly and still look stylish.

        Many replies say more about the commenter than the content. Interesting article, but is about rich people's clothes mostly. My bias, exposed. The overall "modesty" trend is fraught, just ask Miayim Bialyk.

        Heard a long time ago dress designers really hate women. And we are stupid lemmings that follow so called fashion!

        Lazy. Low self esteem. Explains letting their bodies go too. Not to say that some men don't do the same. But when a woman tries, people notice, and tend to appreciate their efforts.

        They probably don't want people like Donna Karan criticizing them and saying that they deserve to be mistreated for how they're dressed.
