I play male Sims almost exclusively, and agree that there aren't many jeans that don't rob a man of his dignity one way or another, but I never felt stinted on fashions and hairstyles because...I actually don't care that much, about fashion and hairstyles! They are a pain to have to deal with. In fact it's more work than I like, to have to set a different outfit for each "occasion" (formal, everyday, cold weather, hot weather, etc) and I just found out you can set more than one for each category?
So the problem as it is laid out, makes sense that it's discriminatory. On the other hand, in real life, women do seem to want 3X the number and complexity of options associated with their appearance, compared to men.
There are exceptions, of course. But in general, "his" and "hers" closet space are not equal.
As for me, irl and in the game, less is more. I usually have 2 pairs of jeans, 2 pairs of shorts, and in summer I cycle between 3 Hawaiian shirts and a couple of "home" t-shirts. And I have one pair of Keens, and a pair of flipflops, and that's it. I like my hair best if it's in a way that doesn't need "doing" in order to walk out the door.
Judging from the male clothing options that are already in the game, why would I want the same people who are designing jeans a guy would never wear, to make MORE of that to choose from? :D
