It's like...for all the hoo-haw about equality of the sexes and so forth some have to prove how equal they are by "disguising" themselves as men. That doesn't say a thing to me about equality...just the opposite, in fact.

It's odd...most men don't have any desire to wear or appropriate women's clothes; but there doesn't seem to be any article of men's clothing that women won't appropriate...like--Hanes For Her?

Years ago, when I was going to a lot of shows, I started buying frock coats and band collar shirts and detachable collars and the assorted paraphernalia of the Victorian gentleman. It was a good look. It was eminently masculine. Although it took a lot of research and effort and money to put together. And then...women started wearing frock coats. Now, in that community, it is almost the women only who wear the frock coat. It's kind of sad.
