…, said many when women had the audacity to wear trousers in the 1920s.

“The main reason why parents refused to buy their daughters a pair of trousers or restricted their use was that trousers were perceived as indecent. One of the respondents described how she had asked her mother whether “we women” should not also wear trousers: “The answer was clear, they don’t belong to women, and why should we imitate men?” (SKS KRA Housut 88.2006, respondent born in 1929). Reactions to women’s trousers were mostly negative; they were seen as indecent, immoral, disgusting and too mannish for women.”

This is not a good analogy, because anyone can choose (or not) to wear trousers. Meanwhile, few women can grow a mustache without hormone treatment. So it will always seem "mannish" to grow a mustache, and facial hair will always be associated with men.

:roll:  :roll:  :roll:  no one is trying to grow a mustache as a fashion statement. We are just trying to point out that it's ridiculous to be disgusted by a little bit of facial hair on a women's upper lip that grew there naturally.[/quote]
