    Apologies for the pay wall but you'll get the gist of the article...
    Maybe Jess Phillips should have googled the 6 pillars of International Mens Day. One of them is to improve gender relations and promote gender equality.

    Is that why you had the operation?

    It's not the skin-tight clothing she dislikes, it's a large erection. Which is an involuntary bodily function and calling it offensive must be a hate crime.

    Cue lots of quickly deleted or altered tweets.

    Simply walking or running around around with a prominent lunch box isn't a crime. \However that's why male runners/cyclists wear baggy shorts over their tights/leggings.
    And that's why one doesn't often see nude ballet dancers!

    As choreographer Frederick Ashton pointed out "The problem with nude ballet dancing is that when the dancers stop, not all of them stops at the same time!"

    The men in leggings/tights don't have to hide they just choose to.
