As a guy I'm sure he'd have quite the perspective-- but since you seem to have such a great set of rules, I can see why he doesn't have to worry!

Women's clothes simply don't fit her, and God forbid she try Petites. Not happening. But Juniors clothes--good gracious me. Not things she can wear to the office. Even the ones that aren't flat-out sexy always have sparkly buttons, or shiny thread running through, or sequins in odd places. What is up with that? Of course, I've always been very irritated with plus-size clothing due to the Cat Sweater Effect. It's gotten better recently, but when I was looking for a prom dress, everything in my size was meant for the mother of the bride. Sequined jackets over knee-length skirts, heavens preserve us.

My tactic with the girls was always to ask "what kind of message do you want to be sending?" I was also willing to be somewhat flexible - I also dislike pants/shorts with writing on the behind, but allowed it on the swim team sweatpants the whole team wore.

This is their fantasy come true... When I think about what MY mother had angina over in 1970 -- I should BE so lucky!

What a hoot! Like girls really need to have anything written on their rear ends to get boys/men to look at them? Good luck with this. “Anything with writing on the posterior (who thought THAT was a good idea?)”
