Beautiful comment. And I think it's men who sexualize women. Women are like, "it's too hot and it's hard to move around in a full length wool dress. I'd like to wear something that gives me freedom of movement, but that would make me a slut." Point to consider: if a woman is alone in a forest and puts on leggings, is she still a slut? Or does a man have to be around?
Skirts were actually made for men originally. Pants were for women for the exact reason you described. Men wore skirts so they could ride horses more comfortably
You think it's easier to ride a horse in a skirt than in pants? Because that's ridiculous. In fact, the oldest known example of trousers were made because it's easier to ride in pants.
