It doesn’t mean no one else can wear a suit if they so chose to, it just means you don’t have to. Some more traditionally minded people like wearing suits on the street to look nice, it’s just clothing, everyone wore suits in the past. Just because everyone else dresses a certain way, doesn’t mean you have to.
say it’s part of expressing your gender and watch them backpedal
You don’t even have to say that.

This is practically an organized labor type thing. Programmers want to comfortmaxx at all costs and part of that is maintaining very low expectations for how professionally they should dress so management doesn’t have a leg to stand on in terms of increasing the formality of the dress code. If colleagues starts wearing sport coats and trousers to work, the next step is that management will ask them to at least wear chinos instead of sweatpants. Even if they wouldn’t mind dressing a little smarter themselves it’s a solidarity thing.

Bullshit. Programmers are generally just aesthetically barren cretins — they are not exercising worker’s solidarity by dressing like shit.

I’m not a fan of the jacket + t shirt look myself but on aesthetic grounds only, which can be subverted to make some salient points about fashion, people like you on the other hand simply slavishly follow "the rules" and are an embarrassment and I hope this look becomes a corporate mandated dress code uniform from now on, just to spite you
Yeah you’re really owning me by dressing like shit. Keep it up champ.

You’re just projecting like the terminally online stupid you are. If you want to wear a suit with a t-shirt and sneakers, more power to you. But you look like shit. The only thing you’re subverting is good taste.

It should go without saying that you should dress for your environment. If you want to wear a dressed down suit, great. Here’s how. >different cloth = different levels of formality. Mohair and silk/worsted smooth, worsted wool blends in dark, solid colors are the most formal >a polo will look much better than a t-shirt with the jacket both on and off while being casual, you’ll look like a TikTok clown with a t-shirt + dress pants and no jacket >ditch the sneakers for something like a Venetian loafer which is comfortable and casual, or go for a more casual one with a rubber sole like a Loro Piana summer walk (or one of the countless cheap knock-offs) to dress it down even more
If you want real advice though you need to post the fit.
t. wear a suit 3-4 times a week to meet with clients
>you’ll look like a TikTok clown with a t-shirt + dress pants
It’s just trousers and a tshirt, it’s the most inoffensive fit imaginable. Your opinion is trash
Tell them to mind their own business and open up a grievance with management and union if they don’t do so, harassment and bullying is not part of your job.
Discrimination of all types is taken very seriously these days in workplaces, especially office based ones, Places where i worked like factories and warehouses are usually less sensitive but if you go out of the way to harass and bully based on how they look you WILL get in the shit. You can also get in trouble if you bully someone if they have a mental illness for example.
It’s because that man wears a suit with a tshirt mentality: a tshirt is just a piece of cloth with a couple holes for your relevent body parts, so the suit in turn just becomes a piece of cloth that is shaped like a suit but distinctly lacks any of the complimentary qualities that make a suit actually a suit: it becomes as ‘inept’ as wearing a cape, because you are willing to commit to the appearance of wearing a suit, but not the subtle function of a suit. People are brain fried, but they are still capable of making negative associations. If you want to dress well, do it properly, which means wearing something because it feels comfortable to you
the major hurdle here is that being a programmer your intellect has been taken advantage of, and, because you receieve a paycheck for your work, you don’t realize that you are also being programmed; programmed to lack taste, to lack any physical self awareness at all; to think of things as strict relations of quantity. As such, you don’t even know the meaning of ‘good taste’ is rooted in your own level of comfort. You don’t even understand how fabric feels against your own skin, because your brain is wired to optimise software.
Thus, in dressing well, what will happen is not that you will ‘do it correctly,’ but that you will start to exude confidence because you are self assured in your tastes, and because people are really thermodynamic, they will be more receptive to your style. They will become like valent atoms and shed all their energy to you, because you are (literally) more attractive.
Likewise, you can wear a tshirt with a suit mentality.
Dress like the position above yours. You will increase your chances of promotion, look better than the people who have the same job as you, and your direct superiors will like you.
If you are a Junior programmer wear what the Senior programmers do. If you are a Senior programmmer, dress like the tech lead or whatever role is 1 step above yours. Dressing like the CEO will do more harm than good if you are in a low tier position.
I also make fun of people who wear jackets/blazers with t-shirts
They made fun of me for being “too elegant”
Odd, what’s your job?

Wearing a t-shirt and sneakers with a suit is a hecking awful look. Based coworkers.
I’m not a fan of the jacket + t shirt look myself but on aesthetic grounds only, which can be subverted to make some salient points about fashion, people like you on the other hand simply slavishly follow "the rules" and are an embarrassment and I hope this look becomes a corporate mandated dress code uniform from now on, just to spite you
Break the rules all you want, if you look like shit then you look like shit.
No one cares what you think, but if we did, we’d go out of our way to make you uncomfortable and disgusted
Yeah you’re really owning me by dressing like shit. Keep it up champ.

Looks great OP, your coworkers suck ass

By the sounds of it, OP’s coworkers are slobs that will think anything remotely resembling a suit is too formal.
>you’ll look like a TikTok clown with a t-shirt + dress pants
It’s just trousers and a tshirt, it’s the most inoffensive fit imaginable. Your opinion is trash
Post a fit of you looking good in suit trousers and a t-shirt, I’m begging you. Throw in sneakers so I can have a quick laugh.
This wouldn’t look half as bad without the sneakers.
say it’s part of expressing your gender and watch them backpedal
>mixing formal (suit) with casual (t shirts)
never gonna make it
Tell them to mind their own business and open up a grievance with management and union if they don’t do so, harassment and bullying is not part of your job.
Also tell them they misgendered you
