No dressing up as zombies, either
A Kansas state senator issues some Rules for Sluts.
A dress code imposed by a Kansas Senate committee chairman that prohibits women testifying on bills from wearing low-cut necklines and miniskirts is drawing bipartisan ridicule from female legislators.
Sen. Mitch Holmes’ 11-point code of conduct does not include any restrictions on men, who he said needed no instruction on how to look professional, The Topeka Capital-Journal reported.
Sounds kind of like that imam in Cologne, doesn’t he. No half-naked women testifying on bills! Wear an abaya or stay home!
I hope some men show up in bikini underpants and neckties.
Holmes said he considered requiring men to wear suits and ties during testimony but decided males didn’t need any guidance. He expects lobbyists to understand the rules when interacting with his committee, although he acknowledged infrequent visitors to the Statehouse might be unaware.
Males never do need any guidance, do they. It’s only bubblehead women who need to be told how to put their pants on.
I would love to see zombies testify before that Senate committee–all appropriately dressed in sober skin-covering business suits, of course.
Can I wear my Richard Nixon mask? I rarely leave home without my Richard Nixon mask.
I would very much like for the men to show their contempt for this insult to their colleagues by showing up in miniskirts and lunging necklines.
Well to be totally fair, that does say ladies, so I’m guessing if you’re not a lady it doesn’t apply to you. My mother and my grandmother agreed on very little, but one thing they did agree on is that women wearing miniskirts and plunging necklines were no ladies. By definition, then, a woman who dresses that way could argue that the rule doesn’t apply to her.

We are not amused.
;-)
It’s years since I wore my miniskirt! It reminds me of a club in Southend in the 70’s that had a rule that men had to wear ties. The dooman, taking the dress rules literally, allowed men in wearing a tie but no shirt.
Am I alone in thinking that government should not be on a “No shoes, no service” basis?
Bruce – haven’t you heard? Didn’t you get the memo? The government belongs to (white) men and (nice Christian)women , henceforth known as “ladies”. That’s why the Republican debates are all about having to take “our” country back, because it’s currently in the hands of people who think “we the people” might include people of color, uterus – Havers and deadbeats who refuse to work jobs making more than minimum wage and spend all their money just to survive.
