WATCH: Barack Obama Wore The Same Tux For 8 Years And Nobody Noticed

IANS, 09 Jun, 2017 01:02 PM

    In a candid conversation on Tuesday, former First Lady Michelle Obama revealed that her husband and ex-POTUS Barack Obama wore the same tuxedo for eight years of his presidency without anyone noticing. 

     

    In doing so, she laid bare the sexist double standards of style - for she herself was scrutinized endlessly for every outfit she wore.

     
     

    "People take pictures of the shoes I wear, the bracelets, the necklace - they didn't comment that for eight years he wore the same tux, same shoes," she said to thunderous applause from the audience at Apple's Worldwide Developers Conference in California, USA.

     

    "You know, this is the unfair thing - you talk about Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers - no matter what we do, he puts on that same tux," she said.

     

    During her eight years in the White House, Ms Obama was frequently in the news for her sartorial choices.

     
     
     

    Michelle Obama acaba de dar um exemplo simples, porém muito significativo, sobre como mulheres e homens têm tratamentos diferentes na sociedade. Enquanto ela, ao longo dos oito anos em que esteve na Casa Branca, passou por uma rigorosa avaliação de suas roupas e acessórios, Barack Obama, no entanto, usou o mesmo smoking durante todo este período e ninguém sequer notou. "As pessoas tiram fotos dos sapatos que uso, das pulseiras, do colar... Eles não comentam que por oito anos ele [Barack Obama] usou o mesmo smoking, o mesmo sapato", disse.
