Regardless of the office dress code, women always show off more flesh -- below the neck, chest area, legs, knees/thighs, bare feet, etc. -- than any man would ever do (except maybe at the beach).

Even at the upper end of business casual, when men have to wear long sleeve button-down shirts -- women dress like in this picture. A mid-thigh skirt and a sleeveless blouse, and open-toe sandals that remind me of flip-flops!

Could you imagine a man dressing that way in a business setting? But men are in the office for business, to work, to get things done -- not to show themselves off like a piece of meat.

I'd say "not there to look pretty", but then I'd be talking about all the baubles, colors, etc. that women wear. Those things aren't necessarily immodest. But I'm focusing completely on the IMMODESTY issue.
How some women are hypocrites when they get all upset when men treat them like a piece of meat -- when they dress like one.

See the picture below? The men aren't showing *any* of their body except for their face and hands. The women, on the other hand, are showing all kinds of stuff.

Women who don't dress like men shouldn't expect to be taken *as seriously* as a man in the business world, or paid the same. It's that simple.

I've said this before, but at least the women who wear pantsuits are consistent. They want to earn the same as men, they are as serious about work and career as any man -- and they dress basically like men. Long grey (or other neutral color) slacks, a long sleeve shirt, and jacket. I would say they are disordered and all, but at least they have a leg to stand on when they demand equal pay, etc. Their choice of clothing projects that they are serious about work.

Women who show off ANY flesh at the office, more than an equivalent man, deserve to be taken less seriously. Getting paid 80%, 60%, or 50% as much as a man doing the same job is all fair game. After all, the woman must be there for other forms of compensation (landing a man -- for short or long term) anyhow, based on her dress.

If I came in to office dressed like any of the men, only my clothes were dirty or wrinkled, should I be taken as seriously as my peers? Of course not. What if I had sleeves missing, or came in dressed in shorts or bare foot sandals? Even worse. So the same should go for women. It's only fair. They want to be treated equally with men, right?

In other news, did you hear that the male/female wage gap exists, even in the world of "gig" jobs and jobs where you are the boss, such as Uber?

It's true! Men make more than women even at Uber, where you'd think there's no possible chance for the "big bad patriarchy" to do its thing.

However, it turns out that men are more aggressive, drive faster, are more bold in seeking clients, etc. and so they end up making more.

See? Nature wins again. Men are not women. Women are not men. They are very, very different. God made them that way "male and female He created them."

Men also win more awards, for example,

I've noticed the same thing as Matthew.  My parents watch a local news show on TV, and while the male reporter is always professionally attired in a suit and tie, his female counterpart wears sleeveless, cleavage-revealing, skin-tight, spandex dresses in a single neon color.  It is not only immodest, but not remotely attractive, even from a worldly perspective.  She colors don't look well on a person of her skintone.  Every bump and line shows.  Her long hair is often unkempt, purposefully it seems.  She does not look professional.  There is no reason I can see for this except for the programmers wanting her to look as she does.   

I work in a profession in which a blouse, skirt with jacket, or dress with a jacket is the required attire.  Men are to wear suits as well.  If I showed up looking like these bimbo lady reporters, I'd be sent home jobless.  Imagine the typical male/female newscaster team in a medical setting.  If the man came out and introduced himself as Dr. Smith, people would have trust in him and accept him as being a doctor.  If the woman came out and introduced herself as Dr. Smith, would she be received with trust and confidence?  No, because her clothing gives the message that she is ready to go clubbing, not to practice medicine!

I've noticed the same thing in other settings, banks, law offices, accounting firms, schools, auto sales, etc.  Brainless women are dressing like sex objects and then wonder why men are rude and nobody takes them seriously.  The newscasters are probably told what to wear, but what about the others?  Whatever happened to "Dress for Success," so trendy in the 80s and 90s?  

Good out of evil!  I sometimes find it consoling to find how much grace we men can gain from avoiding impure glances and on and on.  All those opportunities to gain grace in this way did not always exist -- at lease certainly not to the degree that they exist in modern times.  Temptations, of course, can either bring us down or help to raise us higher.  Just wanted to add that positive thinking perspective!

You know, there comes a time in a woman's life when having the air chilled really helps to offset those hot flashes.

Younger women might be a little prejudiced against co-workers of their own sex, based on AGE!

That would be age discrimination!

Women aren't even paid less anyway. The "70% of a man's pay" statistic does not account for women generally working different jobs to men. If you compare women and men working the same positions in the same jobs, they are actually paid the same. Despite usually being far worse at it: http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-06-30/bilnd-recruitment-trial-to-improve-gender-equality-failing-study/8664888
