Tokyo urges men to wear shorts at work
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government has encouraged employees to wear shorts at work to reduce heat stress during a record-hot summer, as part of the "Tokyo Cool Biz" initiative. While some appreciate the relaxed dress code, many women oppose it, citing concerns over body shape, body hair, and "leg hair harassment." Surveys show mixed opinions, with some feeling self-conscious about leg hair, prompting increased cosmetic treatments. Despite gaining social acceptance, the policy has sparked debate over gender fairness and social etiquette amid rising temperatures and heatstroke risks.
