I get the message and i agree with its meaning but:

Tops designed for fem frames do not fit my broad shoulders. I know this from experience.

Yeah, the sad truth is that there absolutely are gendered clothes. The issue lies with manufacturing and the fashion industry at large. I really wish there was a place where I could shop for dresses that naturally fit my male frame, but nearly everything I've ever liked has needed alterations.

I blame the Victorians for getting us into this mess.
