Did you mean that alot of younger women would not tend to dress up for such an event?

In all honesty, I wear shorts this short even in high-end, expensive restaurants..in my home town and wherever we vacation elsewhere. In the last 15 years, when I pack I minimize the amount of weight because either I have to cycle with all my clothing in my bike panniers when we vacation somewhere or I just can't be bothered to deal with "extra" pieces of clothing in luggage. My travelweight when vacationing even somewhere has become streamlined.

For a 3-wk. vacation, clothing is in 1 carry-on luggage.

Unless I have to attend a wedding or a business meeting where I am there as a representative of my employer, I don't pack any dressy blouses, dress pants nor dresses/skirts.

In a way, I wish some women in our age bracket who dress well, weren't too concerned all the time about their image even when they exercise. I've had a number of women tell me that they don't want to cycle because they are afraid of helmet hair or whatever other image fear they might have (ie. sweating alot, etc.).
