[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work in a corporate office and have never looked at anyone's legs. Hardly anyone even wears skirts anyway. You all are living back in the 80's or something. Or like usually DCUM there is one mom here that keeps posting over and over again to [b]humiliate her daughter and keep sexism alive and well.[/b] [/quote] ^I'm an old, retired big law partner and this, this, this.[/quote] Yet I bet both of you shave your legs. And if you don't you wear pants. Such hypocrites. [/quote] That's not hypocrisy. It's trying to end the cycle of humiliation and sexism -- It ends with us![/quote] +1 Burn the bras!![/quote] But none of you are!!!! You just expect the young generation to be braver than you've ever been. But you love to talk smack on DCUM.[/quote] That’s how progress works. Each generation has a particular set of norms to push back on. [/quote] So start pushing if you're so sure. No one is stopping you.[/quote] I’m tired and I like my smooth legs. But my DD doesn’t care about shaving and I support her. I like seeing young people in the office bucking the norms. Seriously. It makes me smile. Traditional corporate dress codes are relics from another era.[/quote] Agree. I'm "old-fashioned" and still prefer women shave their pits and legs. I also prefer people dressing for work, not going to school in their pajamas, etc. The "norms" are changing and all things considered, so what? I will always believe people should dress differently and appropriately for different situations - that how you dress reflects self-respect and your respect for others/the occasion. But if jacket and khakis instead of business suit and tie is that new level of appropriateness and respect, so what? I may mourn what I perceive the "losses" to be, but that doesn't necessarily make me right.[/quote]
