Ok, fair point. But still, it seemed to me like the OP was looking to generate a discussion about the more negative ways clothing can affect our judgement of a person's character. Worded badly, like you said, but still. We can infer the direction he was heading in, yes? I don't think that direction included pointing out obvious things, like you are.
Where is the OP now? Meh maybe I make a terrible feminist. I read the OP and all I thought was "mer....serxism....blerg"
