I’m not the OP, but I doubt OP assumes every RL woman in clothes that actually fit is trying to look sexy as opposed to just well-dressed.

I didn’t read their comment as assuming that a woman wearing a fitted suit was always meant to be sexy, just that it annoyed OP that people who praise female characters for (looking sexy by) wearing well-fitting but traditionally masculine clothing, but say female characters are ugly/slobs for wearing baggy sweats and an old hoodie, or a tshirt and cargo shorts, or whatever other unflattering, androgynous clothing combo, are doing the same thing guys do when they complain that character redesigns that are more than strategically placed straps and handkerchiefs ruin games/comics/movies for them.

I took a bunch of sewing and pattern design classes in college, but I was always scared to take tailoring, because the things that stopped me being good at sewing/drafting were that precision is absolutely not my strong suit(e) and also I’m bad at mentally picturing anything, much less finished garments. I wish I was good at it, because I’m shorter than most off the rack petite stuff is designed for (I can hand-hem in my sleep) and aside from the boobs I have a very Humpty-Dumpty torso.
