It's sexist.
So don't do it.
If finding a woman in uniform attractive is a crime, then lock me up.

I think the uniform symbolizes qualities like heroism, integrity, competence, strength, etc. If you like those qualities in the gender to which you are attracted, then the uniform sort of elevates the wearer.

I'm pretty sure it's not sexist as many woman find men attractive in actual uniforms ... I'm pretty sure it's a universal thing across gender lines. Just playing devils advocate here.

so you're saying the wife might have had more in mind than pride in her dofus husband when she posted these on social media for the cops to see then.....

Not only is it not sexist, giving someone crap for it is kink shaming. Jiri has been hoisted by his own woke petard!

... In seriousness I'm pretty sure the objection was more the way he worded it than anything. It gave the impression that female cops are essentially just playing dress-up and aren't to be taken seriously, which I kind of doubt was the actual intent.

In a way I'm slightly sympathetic for some of these people because they were duped by a Con Man but in many more ways I'm absolutely unsympathetic because they were badly duped by the World's Worst and Most Obvious Con Man.

We're talking 'Monorail Salesman' caliber.

Yeah its just the way he said it; went well over the creepy dude ledge.

"young women scampering around in their little cop outfits"
Vs
"I find women in uniform very attractive"

That is some scary s***. That being said, I still have some faith that the U.S. can eventually get this insanity under control. But as things currently stand, the future is indeed looking very bleak.

It won't be long before the US has to invoke Directive 51, and the activation of Strategic Homeland Division agents the nation over.
