Sexy Has No Place Within these Walls

Suburban alt weekly Impulse reports in this week’s issue about the the problem of dressing too sexy at work.

Yes, that’s right, apparently there are some people — guess which gender! — who are being accused of showing too much money maker at the office. Philadelphia Will Do takes the stance that there is no such thing as looking too sexy at the office, but some professors at local colleges (la de da) think that there is:

“Basically, if it’s something you would wear around the house, on the weekend or on a date, I wouldn’t wear it to the office,” said Cherry Hill image consultant Rae Ann Broussard.

“The less skin you show, the less distracting you are,” she said. “I don’t want to sound like I’m bashing men, but let’s face it, we work with men and we don’t want to send the wrong message.”

I don’t want to sound like I’m bashing women, but obviously only a woman could say something this stupid.

The article isn’t all men-bashing, though. Oh, no, there is a great lead, and I’d like to preserve it below:

Justin Timberlake’s No. 1 pop song claims to be bringing “sexyback,” but that doesn’t mean sexy needs to be brought into the workplace, experts say.

Wait, that’s pretty much men-bashing, too. Screw you, JT, for bringing sexy into the workplace where it doesn’t belong!
