==== Fashion ==== {{Seealso|Androgyny in fashion}} In the marketing of fashion lines, some designers are beginning to design gender-neutral clothing, that is not labeled as either "men's" or "women's". In today's society gender neutrality is becoming more widely accepted. "Both males and females are now 'allowed' to wear certain clothing items once thought inappropriate for their sex". Women have more freedom because them wearing more masculine clothing, like suits, is generally accepted, but men wearing feminine clothing, like dresses, is less approved.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Davis|first=Leslie L.|date=1 March 1985|title=Sex, Gender Identity, and Behavior Concerning Sex-related Clothing|journal=Clothing and Textiles Research Journal|volume=3|issue=2|pages=20β24|doi=10.1177/0887302X8500300203|s2cid=145492153|issn=0887-302X}}</ref> This aspect of gender neutral clothing says "that the world according to (ruling-class) men [is] the only viable one" because most gender neutral clothing looks like typical male clothing.<ref>{{Cite book|jstor=j.ctt183p0z0|title=Stitched Up: The Anti-Capitalist Book of Fashion|last=Hoskins|first=Tansy E.|date=2014|publisher=Pluto Press|isbn=9780745334561|chapter=The Anti-Capitalist Book of Fashion|doi=10.2307/j.ctt183p0z0}}</ref>
