@renegadejade one might identify as non-binary, but that human body is fortunately/unfortunately still going to do what it does.

@DanadasGrau This is not catering to the human body, which comes in diverse shapes and sizes, sometimes far from either gender norm.

This is economy of scale; shapes to at least somewhat fit 'the average' of the two sides of the gender binary.

@einalex @renegadejade I assume they are selling them in various sizes in both, like they do with other t-shirts.

@DanadasGrau What I mean is this:
Both version follow assumptions about where clothing should be snug or loose, as well es about a lot more details, e.g. neck/cleavage shape, proportions and relations between different body parts.

This forgoes variety, (that would allow bodies outside the narrow frame of these assumptions to look good), for planability and profit.

Benign example: I'm tall. I usually find things either too short or too wide. I'm lucky, others have it way worse.
