From 2003: Telling men to wear ties is sex discrimination

Yes, I've worked in places where male employees were forced into wearing ties, whilst female employees got away with smart/casual dress. There were actually men who got SACKED for several times not wearing ties, whilst women, all the while, were typically not dressed anywhere near as smartly as were the said men when without ties.

Where I work now, I do not have to wear a tie, but do have to wear a shirt and trousers; as always, female employees get away with smart/casual dress. It's sickening.

I would like to see the Gumnut Department that orders women to not show their bras or cleavage. Just think of the howls of protest.

As it is at present, women flaunt their tits at every opportunity. It isn't that anyone can fail to notice that they have a female shape nor should woman have to disguise it but most insist on all sorts of ways to enhance it to the point - often - of sexual harassment. They wear thin, transparent blouses that show the pattern on their bras or it's different colour. Sometimes their outer clothes are so thin that they may as well not be wearing any at all. The very idea of 'under' wear has virtually gone by the board. Even their friggin' 'thongs' are flaunted.

I am a chap and quite like to see women displaying themselves. But not every friggin' place; not on all occasions. Workplaces are places of work not displaygrounds.

I can recall reprimanding an airwoman when I was a military officer for wearing a shirt (of standard material that one could not see through) but so 'tight' that the space between the buttons were pulled open. Her bra showed through. In other circumstances it would have been quite an attractive 'glimps'. I said to her quite loudly infront of the crew, "Just what the fuck do you think you are here for woman?". She 'offered' to go off duty to change into a less tight fitting shirt (time off?) but instead I ordered her to put her tunic jacket on a keep it buttoned up.

He is going to 'appeal' using YOUR friggin' tax money. I bet he'd think twice if it was his own.

I voice this same complaint about the characters on the various Law and Order series: the male detectives wear suits and ties while the female detectives wear jeans and jerseys- often quite revealing jerseys. Feminists do NOT want equality, to state the obvious.

I won this situation at work too. I worked for England's "Largest retailers of computers & peripherals" and my boss made all the blokes wear ties, while the women were given the option to wear a neckercheif thingy.

Due to my complaint falling on deaf ears, I started 'forgetting' to wear my tie.

A father of similar age to myself, who had been caught in the rough 'family' courts was sympathetic to my plight, and joined me... Wow, did our memories get bad real quick.

Eventually, another manager took over the store (in conjunction with the previously mentioned one) and put the suggestion that it was unfair in such hot weathers to make anyone (not mentioning men as a sex) wear such attire.

Yay. Victory for Karl.

I like the rules in IRAN:

1 -
Women must be covered except their face and bare hands
(this is the Islamic dress-code for women for Shia-Muslim-women except girls before entering puberty)

This might be recommended for some US-girls too...

2 -
Men are NOT allowed to wear a necktie - all age, including small boys
(contradict the nature of Iranian culture, banned as a sign of westernization)

Instead of the necktie you should have a beard, which might be trimmed.

------------------------------------

Neckties are a hassle - in our office, we men are supposed to wear a suit and a necktie (necktie not always, only when facing visitors, it's not really a strict rule) and women can use, whatever they like...

I was astonished, when one of our staff was ordered to work in Iran, he was worried, but to our surprise, he was asking after 4 years to stay 4 years longer.

He said, this is really a friendly workplace in Teheran. It was never like that before. No need to worry about clothings like business suit and necktie, nobody is really on time and to be late in office sometimes is no problem, Friday lunchtime all work finished and in afternoon all staff gone for praying and otherwise visiting friends at this occasion, no problem with women complaining or demanding anything - not only in the office but everywhere you go, cheap living, good food...

He did not convert to Islam. Yes, he finished full 8 years in Teheran. I could not believe it.
