As an office worker with stupid dress code during summer not allowed to wear shorts, while the ladies can wear the shortest short mini skirts. Fuck that logic

Wasn’t there this one guy that just started wearing skirts as well as the, and I‘m not entirely sure on that part, dresscode didn‘t specify gender in that way or some legal department ruled a dresscode based on gender to be discrimatory.

Sounds hilarious, is there an article or something on this?

It was on Reddit and I would rather not link there so I found it somewhere else:

„That night I went home and read up on the dress code rules. There was in fact a rule against shorts, so I was annoyed, but kept on. And then I found it, there is no rule preventing males to wear skirts/kilts. Here's where I devised my plan.“

(Oops ....replied to the wrong comment, sorry)

A couple of years ago, bus drivers in France started wearing skirts during a particularily bad heat wave because skirts were allowed but shorts weren’t.
