Banning Required High Heels

Men do not typically wear make-up, visit nail bars for acrylic nail treatment, visit beauticians etc etc This therefore begs the question why are you holding men and women to the same standards when clearly women spend a lot more time and energy on cosmetics, dress and physical appearance. Is it really because expectations are higher for women or that they simply create higher expectations by their behaviour?

Would you feel comfortable if your wife was required to wear heels and miniskirts at work?

if that's their choice, fine.

it is clearly wrong to force them to do so.

High heels should be banned as torture devices... certainly before burkinis.

what you fail to understand is that they are banning the requirement to wear high heels. nobody is stopping anyone from wearing them if they so choose. there is a difference. big one

Dilbert you dilbert, of course employers can stop you from wearing high heels at work, many do. You may be better keeping that activity in the privacy of your home anyway.

Does any male prime minister have to be concerned about a newspaper judging his legs' appearance?

Perhaps not his legs but Mr. Corbyn was repeatedly chastised for his alleged slovenly appearance. Its clear that Mrs May needs a fashion guru like me because some of her creations have been in very poor taste especially her trip to America. That orange jacket was hideous.

I can understand high heels and miniskirts being banned in a workplace.

I cannot fathom any rational reason to force women to wear them.

Because it is in the OP

The title of the thread had me confused? I thought D started this to complain about the city of Banning.

Me too, I thought this was a clickbait play on words where somehow Dark Lord Bannon's Whitehouse was revelling in the joy of seeing accentuated female calf muscles.
