I’m slammed for wearing crop tops to work but men get away with T-shirts and shorts – it’s double standards | The Sun

A WOMAN who has been slammed for wearing crop tops to the office has hit out at the double standards surrounding men and women's workwear.

Nina took to TikTok to share a video in which she explained her issues, as she began: "Ok I need people’s opinions because I genuinely might be wrong on this.



"But if a guy, many guys, if the guys at your office show up to work like this… T-shirts, shorts – not even necessarily jeans, could just be athletic shorts, and like Crocs or sandals…

"Is it ok for me to pull up in a crop top with a blazer on top of it?"

She then showed a picture of herself modelling a white crop top, high-waisted trousers and a cream blazer – with the tiniest bit of her stomach on display.

Nina added that she understood that "technically" the man's T-shirt and shorts outfit doesn't show "skin or midriff".

"But it’s still so casual,' she argued.

"It’s so casual and far from the professional end of the spectrum that crop tops should not be an issue, right?"

Sharing the video on TikTok, she captioned it: "I get the 'show skin' argument but if the whole place dresses unprofessionally then who cares?"

And people were quick to weigh in on the debate in the comments section.
