A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    • 3.1) NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    • 3.2) Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    • 3.3) Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I feel sorry for men who have to wear pants (lemmy.world)

I can wear a dress to work and nobody criticizes me. I’d be really sad if I had to wear pants all the time, they’re just not as comfortable. Let’s normalize pretty dresses for dudes!

I for one am sick of hearing about "women's winter" with this. You are wearing a tank top, a short skirt, and sandals Janet. I have to wear long pants, a long-sleeve collared shirt, socks, and closed-toe dress shoes. Stop complaining. At least you get to be comfortable outside.

I’ve never heard it stated in those terms (“women’s winter”, ha!) but I agree with you. I’ll wear a sweater in the office if it means my neighbor doesn’t have to sweat through his suit. Ideally we could all dress in a way that’s comfortable and spend less on AC too!
