to clarify, the only person’s opinion of you you should truly care about is your own, it is valuable to consider others, but you decide for yourself and only you.

I’m not from the eagle country either (though not in a better place) and by being quite close with my femme relatives I’ve seen this shit happen on many occasions.
It’s almost never polite, it’s never “well I think that would be better”. Oftentimes the “advice” is done with an insult, e.g. by comparing a woman to a prostitute.
Usually they’re just strangers who has no business telling her how she should dress. And yes, if it was a woman saying this it would still be equally bad. But it’s rarely a woman, 99% of the time it’s a man.
Yeah, the premise that all men must be ignored is bad but it’s the emotional response that often develops after yet another such an idiot opens his mouth.
