Exploited by New Fashions in Clothing. Do you Agree or Disagree with
ThisStatement?
你是否同意现在衣服样式变化很大这种观点?
Over the years, the great majority of men have successfully resisted all
attempts to makethem change their style of dress. The same cannot be said of
women. Each year a few so called "top designers" in Paris and London lay down
the law and women the whole world over rush toobey. This year, they decide in
their arbitrary fashion, skirts will be short and waists will behigh; zip s are
in and buttons are out. Next year the law is reversed and far from
takingexception, no one is even mildly surprised.
If women are mercilessly exploited year after year, they have only
themselves to blame, because they are afraid of the thought of being seen in
public in clothes that are out of fashion. They are annually blackmailed by the
designers and the big stores. Clothes which have beenworn only a few times have
to be discarded because of old fashion. When you come to think ofit, only a
woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes
andannouncing that she has nothing to wear.
Changing fashions are nothing more than the deliberate creation of waste.
Many women spendvast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly
been worn. Women whocannot afford to discard clothing in this way, waste hour s
of their time altering the dressesthey have. Fashion designers are rarely
concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort anddurability. They are only
interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of thefact that women
will put up with any amount of discomfort, providing they look charmingand
attractive.
When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, the conclusion to be
drawn isobvious. Do the constantly changing fashion of women's clothes reflect
basic qualities offickleness and instability? Do men's unchanging styles of
dress reflect basic qualities ofstability and reliability? This is for you to
decide.
