It's like why does the Pope care so much about sex?

... that also men feel forced to wear jackets and ties in such hot weather. At least the women has wide choices in how to cover their bare arms and other offending body parts.

In my life... men have only gotten in my way and caused problems. I've raised two kids by my damn self. So, dudes who think you have the right to tell women what to do... STFU right now.

men are forced (matriarchy!) to sweat it out here in the humid swampland with cruel and oppressive dress codes. Thankfully we've had a milder than normal summer this year. But damn, I just don't have the money or the self-loathing to buy seersucker suits. Maybe at some point, I'll buy a linen suit. I got 2 lightweight blazers that I cut the back lining out of in the meantime.

I've been taking off my jacket when walking outdoors. I'd love to lose the tie and roll up my sleeves. Sigh, a guy can dream. Maybe I'll sweat off a few pounds.

Help! I'm feeling repressed!
