Sleeveless dresses, long dyed tresses, thigh-high skirts, sky-high heels, make-up concealing or exaggerating, women flaunting sex appeal. You won't find any man who would object to this parade of estrogen. Young women feel this is what it takes to succeed. Grownup women are made to feel past their prime.
In the days before women's lib, the female presence in the business world and on TV was almost nonexistent. When women began to climb the corporate ladder or started to become more visible in TV broadcasting, they tried to look modest and business-like instead of like man hunters. Sexy was saved for the beaches, dates, and husbands.
Most men in the public eye are wearing suits and comfortable shoes. They don't feel the need to broadcast their sexuality. They look like authority figures who are taken seriously. The viewers focus on their brainpower. Women do not have to conceal their femininity, but should have confidence that a more sophisticated appearance is better than flaunting sexuality.
