Why do many women wear sleeveless shirts, more so than men?

Muslim culture actually doesn’t allow men to show their upper arms and thighs, so Muslim men and boys wear T-shirts and at least knee long pants.
Also, most men don’t shave their pit hair, while most women do. So, men wearing T-shirts hide the abundant growth under their pits.
I wasn’t allowed to wear sleeveless for 20 years, in my marriage, since it is against LDS modesty code. Which absolutely sucked. I was supposed to wear double layer of coverings and sweated horribly during the summer, to which I was tol “Look at yourself, you sweat so much”. Yeah, under the 3 layers of garments, and making sure my skin is covered im dark colors, so men don’t look at me, what do they expect will happen?
Why not? I love sleeveless, it is cool and comfortable. also, there are lots of fashionable slevless clothes that are very feminine. And, men have to decide what they want - women to be feminine, or look like men? I hear the both all the time - women look like men, we don’t want them; and wome lie to us with lcothes and make up. You can’t win this battle, so wear what pleases yourself.
