Sir: I thank Suzanne Moore ("Danger: women at work", 26 June) for her permission, but if I, a man, were to "strut around the office in skimpy T-shirts and shorts" I would at best be a figure of mirth. But a woman doing the same has a serious impact, and this shows either a wish to manipulate or a complete disregard of the feelings of the opposite sex.

Men and women have different body images, hormonal balances and biological imperatives. Perhaps, by trying to counter these differences, we don't create a fairer world - only a more confused and unhappy one.
