Why this female worker wants to ditch her shirt

The differences and inequalities between men and women have been a central part of societal debate for hundreds of years — and the topic remains just as relevant today.

Now, there is a female landscaper in Sydney, Australia, has set social media on fire after calling out what she sees as a major double standard in the workplace — why can men work shirtless in the heat, but women can’t?

”It’s a f—ing 40-degree day today..”
We all know how tough it can be to work outside when the sun is blazing and the heat is relentless. If you’ve ever had to power through a scorching day on the road or at a construction site, you know exactly what I’m talking about.

When I was growing up, it wasn’t unusual to see road workers or construction workers shirtless on hot days. It might not be as common today, but I still occasionally see men working with sunburned shoulders and nothing on top.

Shianne Fox, an Australian tradeswoman who goes by the name “The Bikini Tradie” on social media, took to TikTok to vent her frustration after being told she couldn’t remove her shirt while working outside on a scorching 104°F (40°C) day.
