Please explain what the original ‘survey’ was for. The whole thing was weird. I got the feeling that the survey was ‘baiting’. I did an internet search on “Dr Evil Jackets Pantsuits” to see if I could figure out what the heck the question was about. I kept getting references in Google to links like the one above. As you know, I avoid threadjacking – just look at my history.

Hillary has gotten a lot of flack for her clothing – way too much has been read into it, as far as I’m concerned. Apparently she decided to wear fewer (almost no) skirts and dresses back in the early 2000s. She wears pantsuits in bright colors, some of which include a “Dr. Evil” jacket. I don’t think it helps her position among women, though, as it appears she believes that she cannot be taken seriously wearing more traditionally feminine clothes. Or she is concerned about age related cankles, which isn’t unreasonable. Or she can no longer wear heels at her age – and flats with skirts can be a little hard to wear in a way that looks polished. In any event – I think it suggests that “feminine” and “powerful” cannot coexist – which is contrary to her message. She also is looking more and more like my mother – which is interfering with my take on her :).

The original “survey” just seemed like it was for laughs to me. Turning it into (serious, as far as I could tell) finger-wagging on her use of money and resources seemed kind of thread-jacky. Sorry if I misunderstood the intent.

That is why I Googled the terms to figure the real intent. If this forum was solely a group of people commenting solely individual style, then yes – my comment could be a threadjack. But I don’t think Piggington is “The View” or “Entertainment Tonight”. I also looked at who was posting. I don’t think “no_such_reality” is much into clothing. This place does get into serious stuff, while “The View” and “Entertainment Tonight” is all appearance and very shallow types of thought. I was also trying to gauge where this was going – that is why also the reference (link) I provided. It is a sensitive/volatile/flame-ignition type of subject.
If this thread is as “njtosd” is commenting – then not for me an I’ll exit the thread.

Well, to be honest, I did Well, to be honest, I did have a hard time deciding between the pantsuits questions and Trump: Teeny tiny tanlines or orange glow full monty?
But I figured the tiny hands thing and orange glow had already been covered.
It’s just a irrelevant meant to be humorous question. It’s also a bit flippant on where political discussion is in our country.
For my personal opinion, I don’t think her clothing choices help her, kind of like a really bright hardworking tech person but they’re always kind of disheveled, but hey, at least she isn’t orange.
