Message-ID: <746@eosp1.UUCP> Date: Mon, 26-Mar-84 17:56:55 EST Article-I.D.: eosp1.746 Posted: Mon Mar 26 17:56:55 1984 Date-Received: Tue, 27-Mar-84 01:50:44 EST References: <6492@decwrl.UUCP> Organization: Exxon Office Systems, Princeton, NJ Lines: 11 If it is true that women's clothes are more expensive than men's, and not made as well, the paradox is even stranger -- don't forget that many women MAKE clothes, saving a great deal of money. I'm under the impression (please correct me if I'm wrong), that it is primarily women's clothes (well, and children's clothes) that get MADE. I rarely hear of a man, or woman making dress shirts, suits, and sports jackets for men, or even slacks.
