Solidarity, Uniformity Me-tooism

  I'm watching the Golden Globes and trying to make as much sense out of it as I can. The word was passed that the women should dress in black and they did, though the emphasis was on individuality. The men dressed in black also, as they traditionally have. Many if not most of the women's dresses revealed portions of their bodies considered by most to be sexy: cleavage, side slits, open back. None of the men revealed anything; body parts were  completely covered. 
    There have been a number of complaints about men revealing to women their private parts, or part, behind closed doors, office or hotel room.  It seems they want to be admired for what they have and can't show in public. Women, however, can show a good portion of their bodies, and for what reason but to be admired for what they display.
    If the females in the Golden Globe audience can be persuaded to all dress in black this year, why don't they all dress in black tuxedos next year to see what happens. If the women  resort to luring unwilling men into rooms,and stripping off their tuxes so they can flaunt to the men what has been tucked inside, then maybe the answer would be found.
