any guy in it just for women to wear skimpier clothing should probably be investigated.

Is the western man being oppressed when he has to wear a tie and suit to the office in order to keep his job?

Suits are expensive and unnecessary. Some people (i.e. autistic) might have sensory difficulties when they wear them. If someone is vegan, most suits aren't so it further restricts what they can wear and they have to worry more about differences in look due to the stricter dress code. Fortunately, being restricted only while working certain jobs isn't as bad as being restricted in all public spaces.

Do we free him from this oppression by ostracizing him or making it illegal for wearing a tie?

But is he being oppressed?

Yes

Alright! So we agree that ostracizing people or making it illegal for them to wear what they wear is not going to lead to a more free society?

I already said that

Then I don't know what you were trying to say with your original comment other than agreeing with me?
