I personally think it is unfair that women in politics are being criticized for their fashion sense. For example, First Lady, Michelle Obama always seems to be on blast for her chose outfits even though most of them are very fashionable. These women in politics are generally remembered based on what they wear rather than what they say, as to where many people do not pay attention to what men wear. It is sad that the criticism of Michelle Obama also leads to criticism of Mr. Obama as well.

This is also consistent with what female lawyers face. Often times they have to be careful with what they wear because if they dress in too much color, or clothing that shows their womanly features then their credibility is questioned. On the other hand, if a woman wears something that conceals her feminine features then she is considered to be more masculine which is also not pleasing. It is almost like they have to find a perfect balance.

This is problematic because a woman is already judged based on what she is wearing before she even is given the chance to speak. Regardless of what a woman wears her credibility seems to be at stake. Based on the article it seems that we only focus on what women wear. It seems as that is what we value over what they actually think. This is problematic because in comparison to men, this is highly sexist. No one seems to criticize male politicians or lawyers for what they wear and they are remembered for what they say. Although we have come a long way in equal rights for women, many women in predominately male positions such as law and politics are faced with struggles that society and their male counterparts regulate.
