7. The male business suit send a message about the past

Scary as it is to contemplate a massive change in power, the future most of us seem to want is one of power sharing, egalitarianism and respect for diversity, and joining together to solve the massive problems we have before us.

I think Fetterman understands this. He is making a statement about hierarchy and about equality within the male community.

The article from Ms show how it has taken decades for women to be accepted as equals in the halls of power and how dress figures in the resistance to power-sharing. We all need to move ahead faster now.

I think cracking the chokehold of the western male executive power uniform is just a matter of time and will accompany a reversal of the trend we have been in, which has concentrated power among the few and the wealthy.
