Someone in a suit is always suspicious.
They play dress-up to represent something that they aren't, to get you to think that they're serious and competent.
Someone who really has competentence and something behind the looks can show up in rags and I will trust that person. Someone in a suit makes me question, what are they hiding? Why the need to show off?
52You at a wedding: “Why is every man here wearing a suit? What are they hiding? Suspicion indeed!”
61Nah, in this setting I would ask myself:
Why do we require suits for a wedding? We're celebrating a couple, how does wearing a suit make it more celebratory?
And then probably go on a rant about our superficial society.
But the only wedding I would actually attend would be one where we'd sit on the ground in jeans and hoodies and pass a joint, or something like that.

5Here in the UK there are in general 2 categories of ppl who are still wearing suits: corporate managers and real estate agents. Not sure which is the worst, a close competition.

Maybe just stop basing your risk assessment on articles of clothing
48I think that's the point.

Slaves are rarely dangerous.
23Are you implying women in burqas are slaves? lol
14They’re equating a piece of clothing with its use by autocratic regimes to oppress women, while conveniently ignoring the fact that outside of those autocratic regimes, in the most progressive countries in the world women choose to wear burqas and other similar articles of clothing of their own free will every day.
And I’m saying this as an atheist American. I see absolutely no difference between a woman choosing to wear a burqa or to wear the attire of a catholic nun or to wear a potato sack. What she chooses to wear is her own damn business.

But I look good in a suit :(
19You might look even better in a burka.
11You would look... anonymous.

Was it men in suits that made you think that?

Suits should be legal for anyone to wear except for rich important businessmen. Fuck the man, and fuck his dress codes.
18We as a society need to teach our children about this propoganda (e.g. women in burqa's are a risk). It's a relatively easy concept and my daughter already knows ow to ask questions.
12ITT: people missing the point
9Let us ban suits and make full frontal nudity mandatory!
7Those people would still exist even you banned suits. You just wouldn't be able to recognize them anymore.
4I still love the men in suits who brought us out of the wars and fixed the economy.
4Where are these men of which you speak? I have seen neither them nor any evidence of the work you claim they have done.
16The nameless men and boys in the Federal Reserve and the suited man by the name of Joe Biden.

...after starting the wars and breaking the economy in the first place. And saying they fixed it is overselling it.
11I will admit, that particular suited man was an awful man. The suited men did not over sell it, many companies were saved from collapse and saved us from a economic collapse, which was arguably the most important part. As for the people, as with many things, it takes time for the effects of goodwill to rollout.
