As a man, (even as a child) I never understood why women thinks it's ok to wear something without functional pockets.

That was fun!
I wonder if the mere act of wearing something, if it suits you, may mean that the item, even if correctly labeled - whether of male or female attire - transcends being gender specific at all. I'm thinking of some shoes here e.g. 'Loafers - if you can get them in your fitting [I can't seem to though] you can wear them; Gentleman or Lady.
I remember an English teacher who used to say 'It's not my shirt, it's the person who's wearing it'. And when Susannah York(deceased now, sadly) wore a mans suit in, I think, 'The Killing of Sister George' that looked sensational plus feminine at the same time. Anyway, great account of the month trial.
“The Killing of Sister George,” you say? I’ll find the time to check that out.
The Eldredge knot is awesome. I want to know what the Yonic Tie looks like.
It wouldn't be safe for work.
