Not equating. Drawing a parallel.

If wearing too little is illegal in most places, why wouldn't it be possible to wear too much, in theory?

You are essentially at a point where you are saying “if I don’t like your outfit I’m going to legislate it.”

You might be cool with that, but I’m not.

That’s a really bad faith argument. What’s up with people attempting to summarise someone else’s thought in the worst possible way and putting words in their mouths?

Some forms of dress and undress have laws. Others don’t have laws but are still bound by social contracts. The person you are replying to is clearing trying to compare these and pointing out responsibility may come down to the wearer in both cases and wondering out loud that society may punish any extreme state of dress.

At which point did he say you should pass new legislation or that he agreed with it?

You always know you're in for a wild ride when a comment starts with "it sounds like you are saying"
