Misogyny has been a hot topic in 2017. According to a new report from Axios, nowhere is this more evident than in the office President Donald Trump.

President Trump has allegedly enforced a dress code upon female members of staff in the White House, insisting that they need to ‘dress like women’.

A source, who worked on Trump’s campaign, also stated that the President places an exacting emphasis on appearance of his staff and insists that they ‘look the part’.

The source also suggested that most women feel pressure to wear dresses in order to impress him and commented that even if women deign to wear jeans, ‘you need to look neat and orderly’.

Trump also reportedly pays close attention to men’s ties. A source who has worked with him suggested that ‘If it’s not a Trump tie, you can get away with Brooks Brothers’ or Armani.

Good grief that’s just a question of respect. I’m sure a well tailored pant suit would be acceptable, just not jeans and a tee shirt

Perhaps some of them are women who identify as men?

Has he even taken off his Suit Jacket in the Oval Office yet?

Apparently he holds the same standard to Men in his Administration.

they all missed the first part of the article - so where's the sexism ? Where does it say this a White House dress code?

• Trump judges men's appearances as much as women's. A source who's worked with Trump explains: "If you're going to be a public person for him, whether it's a lawyer or representing him in meetings, then you need to have a certain look. That look — at least for any male — you have to be sharply dressed. Preferably, I would say, solid colors. ... You should have a good physical demeanor, good stature, hair well groomed."

• Trump pays close attention to ties. Says a source who has worked with Trump: "You're always supposed to wear a tie. If it's not a Trump tie, you can get away with Brooks Brothers. But I'd suggest Armani." Trump prefers wider, traditional ties, this source says. Regarding Trump's rakish policy adviser Stephen Miller, the source adds: "I've always been surprised about how Stephen Miller survives with those thin ties."

Another one of those reports from unnamed sources. That means it is pure speculation or outright lies

Really doesn't seem like to much to ask.

At any workplace.

“I’m sure a well tailored pant suit would be acceptable”

I hope not.

And how is telling women not to dress like men “misogynist?”

Many jobs require uniforms and dress codes (for ex. medical, plant engineering).

Macy’s requires all employees to wear black...

This is just more democrat crap.

I propose we name this controversy “pantsuitgate”, in honor of She Who Shall Not Be Named.
