Women being shamed for what they're wearing is a tale as old as time. Nonetheless, the ridiculous sl*t-shaming stories keep coming at us in full throttle. A Reddituser asked women about times they violated the dress code, and the thread blew up. Whether you're a 6-year-old in elementary school or a woman in the workplace, no female is safe from being shamed for showing more than two inches of skin. Scroll down to read the horrific, sexist stories on the thread. Like me, I assume you'll be throwing up your hands and yelling the following at nobody: "come on, y'all! We need to do better!"
dress code
Being an employee means adhering to specific workplace rules and risking inevitable consequences if you don't. Included in those policies is the dress-code, which will, of course, differ depending on where you work. However, sometimes the rules aren't so clear-cut and can be left open to the employee's interpretation—for example, deciding whether or not wearing a bra is necessary. One woman faced this very problem and posted on Reddit's Am I The A**hole after receiving complaints from her new coworkers about her refusal to wear a bra in the office. She stresses that she didn't wear a bra at her previous job, her nipples weren't on show, and a sweater hid her 'large boobs,' and she was, in her opinion, entirely appropriate. Redditors, however, disagreed and argued that, although it sucks, it was unprofessional and if she didn't like the policy at her new workplace, she should find another job. What do you think?
