Utility and fashion are not the same most times, especially "fashion" shows. These pants are stupid and dangerous and serve no utility purpose other than looking flowy. They could be adjusted to be safe and the light flowy feeling won't go away.

Of course mens fashion is stupid too if its dangerous. I dont discriminat stupid.

Tell me you've never watched a variety of fashion shows without telling me.

You did discriminate by singling out women. You didn't have to punch down like that at all.

I addressed the image. If there were men wearing them in the image or story I would have addressed that too.

Women just like to live dangerously, also fashion is stupid.

Come on, you can't accept you made a generally insensitive and sexist comment and just edit it out or something? You have to double down?

No I can't because it wasn't. I was comparing two dangerous womens garments. You meanwhile haven't provided one dangerous mens garment as a counterpoint.

I'm not debating you on this.

But ypu said

Men also enjoy fashions that are not practical on first view.

Explain, since you think I was being sexist, provide examples.
