Provocation in the Workplace
I'm quite sure modest dress in the work environment would be a great relief to male coworkers. Indeed, I often think that there is justification for suing for sexual harassment with what some of their female colleagues come to the office wearing!

Most places of business have some form of company-wide dress code all staff must adhere to.
If women wearing acceptable clothing are a distraction to you, perhaps the problem lies with you? (AKA Man blames woman because he can't control himself #2316846841165)
As long as it covers as much (or as little) skin as what is accepted and acceptable for men, I have no problem.
That is among the most pathetic things I have ever heard. If any significant number of men were such weak-kneed, unfocused, emotionally unstable, hormonal simpletons with ADHD as you tell yourself we are to excuse your personal indescretions that a woman in any state of dress merely being in the vicinity causes you to drop everything and fixate on her all I would have to do to paralyze the world is kick a crate of Victoria Secret catalogues off the back of a plane over major cities and watch the ensuing mental breakdown.
Idiots are always trying to paint women as emotion driven, mentally under-developed, or prone to hysterics but you'll notice a distinct lack of similar claims of an attractive man inducing such a state of helpless hyperventilating catatonia in the masses. Hell if a woman even mentions arousal you'd jump down her throat, call her a slut, and demand she get a hold of herself like you just said a man could not.
Aside from what's needed for safety (hard hats, hair nets, etc.) there shouldn't be such a thing as dress codes, either enforced by work or by the government. If someone wants to go around naked 24/7, more power to them.
What about female co-workers? Won't modest dress be a great relief to them too?
