    They became “unisex” (often still labeled men’s clothes and on men’s section of the store) because so many women used them.

      So they’re still seen as unisex. Also what was the reaction before they were considered unisex? Oh yeah not great. Women were banned from wearing pants in various places for a long time and women wearing men’s clothes dealt with hate. Look up people like Marlene Dietrich

        It’s unisex because of how common it was and still is. Meaning there’s no issue about it since there basically isn’t male clothing anymore.

        I guess what I’m wondering about is what sort of clothes these butches are wearing to cause issues?
