When women are forced to buy men's gear or ostensibly "unisex" gear that is designed for men because there is no alternative, that is just taken for granted. See what it's like. You're not going to get wisecracks, it's just as appropriate for you to look at women's gear as for us to be continually forced to make do with things designed for men's height, build, etc. Okay, I've vented, I won't stay mad about the double standard behind that comment!
