The Right To ...

We've been on this very important problem for some time. Now Slate catches on, six mos. later. (Why even bother, Slate? Can't compete w/ us!)
The sleeveless sheath dress, now ubiquitous on cable and local news, and especially beloved by morning news programs, is as much a uniform for TV newswomen as androgyny was in the mid-’90s, when boxy blazers and short hair reigned.
We wonder why male news readers can't show as much flesh as sheath-sporting female anchors? Course the equivalent amount of flesh for men would require wife-beaters paired w/ cargo shorts.

Nonetheless, men on the tube must keep themselves fully covered except for the hands & face. (Which, aside from hair concealment, seems to be the criterion for female dress in many Islamic countries. Odd, innit?)

    In that case, ball-gags & zip-up leather hoods.
