This caught my eye on Yahoo
https://ca.yahoo.com/style/kim-campbell-says-sleeveless-dresses-161236218.html

Two things, well, three in fact.

First thing first. I love seeing women in sleeveless dresses. I think it is just so sexy. It must be some kind of fetish. (The women I have seen know what I am talking about). But I digress.

Secondly, I think there is nothing wrong with women wearing sleeveless dresses on TV. Heck, the reason I turn on the TV in the morning is to see those ... sexy arms of Kaitlin Herbst on Global. I think she should change her name to Kaitlin Armstrong Herbst. What a gorgeous woman!!!!

Thirdly.... and most importantly ............... didn't Kim Campbell pose semi nude for a portrait when she was in PM's office?

So it is OK with a female pm to pose semi nudish but not OK for a woman to have bare arms on TV? ...............

Like ........ wtf !

I too think sleeveless dresses can look professional. But I feel slightly hypocritical since a guy wearing a sleeveless shirt would just look ... silly. Or redneck. Or silly-redneck.

Note I say only "slightly" since, at the end of the day, it should be perfectly OK for men & women to wear different outfits - women shouldn't have to be wearing suits & ties anymore than men shouldn't have to be wearing dresses :)

If Kim Campbell went to some Latin American countries, she'd probably have a conniption. Cleavage and short-tight dresses galore on the meteorologists!

If I had my way, those weather girls on Global would be doing their job topless.
Which is probably the reason I'd never get promoted in that industry.

I bet you don't let those horses (make that mares) have anything on while they graze.

Beautiful horses, like beautiful women should never have loose clothing on....it should be skin tight or nothing.
There should be a law for it....then everything would be right in the world.

With all the shit going on in the world sleeveless dresses are not one of my priorities.

Still lost in the '60s
I danced with Kim Campbell once, before she was Prime Minister.
She was kind of hot back in the day.
Now, with this inane bare arms comment, she just seems stupid.

some should flaunt it (Yvonne Schalle), while some definitely should not (Kaitlyn Herbst)
and god forbid if we see Lynn Colliers wrinkly arms.
sleeveless is a good look but only if the arms are toned.

I did and thank you. :)

I hate saying this but I forgot Yvonne Schelle and Kateline Herbst for a few seconds.

Lynn makes me cringe and she really needs a fashion consultant. I know it is not her fault but HD TV is not for her face, and arms and skin and neck...

If the male anchors are expected to wear suits, why should their female counterparts not be expected to similarly wear business attire?

That was basically Campbell's point - to play the part of a serious individual you should dress that way. How many female executives do you see wearing sleeveless dresses? Probably some, but not a lot. For the simple reason that bare arms makes you look more casual and less serious.
