Here’s to the heroic women of Iran !

[pratchettquotes]

Besides, she thought as she watched Wazzer drink, you only thought the world would be better if it was run by women if you didn't actually know many women. Or old women, at least. Take the whole thing about the dimity scarves. Women had to cover their hair on Fridays, but there was nothing about this in the Book, which was pretty dar--pretty damn rigorous about most things. It was done because it had always been done that way. And if you forgot, the old women got you. They could practically see through walls. [...]

Polly had forgotten her dimity scarf. She did wear it at home on Fridays, for no other reason than that it was easier than not doing so. She vowed that, if she ever got back, she'd never do it again.

My mom was watching Women Roland Garos the other day. I take a peek and Here's the convo we had:

Me: Wow, they still have to wear skirts to play in 2024?

My mom: well it's fine, they have shorts underneath.

Me: Idc about that. I care that they can’t wear pants in mf 2024. That men's shorts goes down to the fucking knee and are large. While women's skirt are tight and cover their ass and nothing else.

You would NEVER make a man wear a skirt like that, shorts underneath or not.

You’re just used to seeing women humiliated."

Dress Codes Explained

I feel like I’ve created enough templates for your mind development, routines, habits, etc. I’m getting bored with putting out the same content in a different manner so now I’m going to start switching up my content. I’m going to focus more on how one can carry themselves, socialise, etc etc.

My first article under this segment “Cultural Education” here will be about dress codes. You will find this segment on my pinned post.

Culturally, dress codes differ from one another. The western world is generally more tolerant towards showing of skin, for instance; but if you were to attend formal events in Asia and the Middle East, I’d highly, highly recommend you opt for a more modest look.

This is a very brief breakdown on what a woman can wear and when.

Images are for examples only.

1. Casual

Meaning: low-key, but not like you just woke up.

* Sundress

* Long/ midi skirt

* Tailored pants or nice jeans (not ripped, distressed, acid wash- plain and simple)

* Tailored shorts

* Plain T-shirt (no graphics), polo t-shirt, turtleneck

* Button-down shirt

2. Dressy

Meaning: no jeans, generally use of lighter colours

* Skirt (not bum short)

* Tailored trousers

* Dress

* Co ord sets

* Jumpsuits

* Sundresses

3. Semi formal

Meaning: dressier than your corporate office job, but more casual than a formal gown.

* LBD (but not too little)

* Maxi skirt

* Cocktail dress

4. Business

Meaning: what a typical office senior person would wear.

* Suit

* Dress (modest; at least knee length; not too short)

* Dress with a jacket

* Blazer and a skirt

* Stockings (optional in summer)

* 3-4 inch heels / loafers / flats

5. Business casual

Meaning: what one would typically wear everyday to a corporate job that does NOT abide by Gen Z clothing (meaning slightly more conservative)

* Skirt, khakis, or pants

* Open-collar shirt, knit shirt or sweater (no spaghetti straps or décolleté)

* Dress (again, modest)

6. Black tie

Meaning: formal evening events, generally after 6 pm.

* Formal (floor length) evening gown (avoid slits, too tight dresses)

* Dressy cocktail dress

Formal Attire - SUMMER BEACH WEDDING

Lil Kalish at HuffPost:

Schools across the country have denied students entry to prom, graduation ceremonies and other school activities because of dress code policies that advocates say disproportionately impact LGBTQ+ students and girls.

In May, 16-year-old Florida junior Sophie Savidge told NBC News that she wasn’t allowed to go to prom because she wore a suit. In a statement at the time, the school pointed to its online guide to attire, which stipulates that “ladies” are required to wear dresses and “one piece attire only” to formal events. A transgender student in Alabama reportedly wasn’t allowed to go to her senior prom in April because she wore a dress. The school’s student handbook said that it was up to administrators to “deem appropriate clothing or appearance,” according to AL.com. And the American Civil Liberties Union of Mississippi filed a federal complaint with the Department of Education against Harrison County School District for barring a transgender girl from wearing a dress to her regional band concert this spring. The complaint detailed a two-year pattern of the district punishing girls — transgender and cisgender alike — for violating dress codes requiring students to dress in clothes that are “consistent with their biological sex.”

The school district added the provision of “biological sex” to its dress code after LGBTQ+ students complained that they couldn’t wear clothes that expressed their gender identity, said Liz Davis, a fellow at the ACLU’s Women’s Rights Project. School administrators have long used dress codes to enforce a rigid gender binary and uphold different standards based on assigned sex. This year, there has been a renewed effort in school districts across GOP-led states to enforce policies that are more explicitly restrictive to queer, trans and gender nonconforming students, as a record number of anti-LGBTQ bills have been introduced in statehouses across the country.

“Requiring students to dress according to their biological sex —even if it seems to be neutral as a rule, and it’s not calling out any particular student — has a disproportionate impact on gender nonconforming, nonbinary and transgender students because it is tying gender expression to their sex assigned at birth, essentially,” Davis said. Students who are targeted over dress code infractions can lose out on class time or face punishments like suspension, and may face emotional distress from being pulled from class and told to change, she said. Sex-based dress codes often force boys to wear pants and girls to wear skirts or dresses of a certain length. Advocates say these rules push rigid gender stereotypes and outdated, misogynistic ideas of how girls should dress in the presence of boys. And they leave no room for less traditional gender expression.

[...] Policies that purport to bring “clarity” to sex discrimination laws by codifying definitions of “male” and “female” in order to exclude trans people from those categories often use exceedingly specific language that also fails to account for intersex people. The language embedded in these policies, often called “Women’s Bill of Rights” bills, was first proposed by Independent Women’s Voice, a conservative organization that has argued it’s necessary to protect women-only spaces and activities from trans people’s inclusion.

So far this year, at least 10 states have introduced or passed similarly worded legislation to narrowly define “biological sex” based on a person’s reproductive capacity or chromosomes. Oklahoma’s governor just signed the state’s own version of a Women’s Bill of Rights into law on Monday. Last year Arizona Rep. Debbie Lesko (R) introduced a Women’s Bill of Rights resolution to Congress, though it’s made no progress since. Some state-level legislation now includes definitions of sex that explicitly bar trans people from updating their drivers licenses or state IDs, which makes it harder to vote, travel, and exist in public life. Advocates say that an emphasis on “biological sex” has negative ramifications for all people, including cisgender women, because it encourages people to police one another’s gender — including kids. People have harassed child athletes who they suspect are transgender, and one state official in Utah came under fire for falsely suggesting that a student was transgender because of how she looked.

School dress codes are yet another tool in the weapon to suppress LGBTQ+ expression in schools.

It is my firm belief that the Kristoph wears shirts that are too big him to hide his snatched waist.

I totally believe like John Melaney, he’s got them feminine hips, so wears clothes that don’t fit so he can be “taken seriously”

He makes himself look ugly cause he’s too afraid and insecure to be the pretty little bitch he is

kristoph gavin is the first man to experience misogyny in the workplace so true

The obsession with bra straps will never not be absurd to me. I am a woman. I exist in a body with breasts. Therefore I must wear a bra, the most secure of which being those with straps. I do not endeavor to put them on display but should they so happen to escape the often meager confines of my clothing, they really should not be a cause for scandal. If people wear bras, your poor wee virgin eyes will be subjected to incidental glimpses of bra straps. Let me assuage your anxieties and reassure you that they are not a whore, that's just what clothing does and you are the greater asshole for pointing it out (or even worse, trying to "fix" it without that person's consent, as my own mother has attempted to do many times whilst walking behind me on the street and that woman is very lucky I have not accidentally hit her due to being startled at someone's hands on me) than you would be for keeping your mouth shut and your eyes almost anywhere else. It's underwear, it's breast support, not some lurid secret or kink best kept behind closed doors and never mentioned in polite society. Quit it with the puritanical-minded bullshit.

I’ve been listening to the rise of the pink ladies soundtrack hoping and praying for a second season and this morning when listening to “Sorry to distract” I got this memory from when is was in the 9th grade so about 14 or 15 and I had worn a racer back tank (that was up to my schools dress code but I have broad shoulders) and got dress coded for probably the 4th time that year (I was poor and fat so sometimes my tops wouldn’t fit all the way over my hips no matter how many times I’d pull them down) and was made to put on my heavy spring jacket, by the end of the day I felt like I was about to pass out so that night I asked my mom to take me to the store and got the biggest men’s top I could and spent the whole night making a statement top… that got an in school suspension/detention before the first bell. So dolls if your school has an oppressive dress code I’m sorry and I hope this can maybe inspire you I wish I had worn it everyday for the rest of the year
