    “But dresses are naturally female!” (I’ve legit heard this exact statement multiple times.)

    Naturally? They’re naturally female huh? How? Did our ancestors the Neanderthals and Australopithecus africanus wear dresses? Are genetic female babies born in dresses? Do you see female non-human animals wearing them?

        Plus kilts in Scotland, and depending on your definition of what a dress is a lot of the traditionally male clothes in Asia and the Middle East (namely loose fitting, flowing clothes) can be considered “Dresses.”
