Why do many women wear sleeveless shirts, more so than men?

I wasn’t allowed to wear sleeveless for 20 years, in my marriage, since it is against LDS modesty code. Which absolutely sucked. I was supposed to wear double layer of coverings and sweated horribly during the summer, to which I was tol “Look at yourself, you sweat so much”. Yeah, under the 3 layers of garments, and making sure my skin is covered im dark colors, so men don’t look at me, what do they expect will happen?

Why not? I love sleeveless, it is cool and comfortable. also, there are lots of fashionable slevless clothes that are very feminine. And, men have to decide what they want - women to be feminine, or look like men? I hear the both all the time - women look like men, we don’t want them; and wome lie to us with lcothes and make up. You can’t win this battle, so wear what pleases yourself.

Muslim culture actually doesn’t allow men to show their upper arms and thighs, so Muslim men and boys wear T-shirts and at least knee long pants.

Why are there posts saying the T in LGBT should be dropped? With what is happening in the US and beyond against the trans community cause for concern that if this is accepted could it be deemed acceptable to start on the LGB community again?

Also, most men don’t shave their pit hair, while most women do. So, men wearing T-shirts hide the abundant growth under their pits.
