Creating a feminine touch in a masculine SCOTUS (male, difference, thin)

[Cida]

The origin of the famous RBG collars:

"You know, the standard robe is made for a man because it has a place for the shirt to show, and the tie," Ginsburg told the paper. So she and Sandra Day O'Connor, the first female justice on the court, "thought it would be appropriate if we included as part of our robe something typical of a woman." They weren't going to obscure their sex or pretend it was beside the point. It was part of the point

There are people who actually need someone to explain this?

define who is "female"? define what is "typical of a woman"?

I always thought the lace collars looked silly. If the latest nominee is confirmed I hope she doesn't wear them. She is a beautiful woman and any embellishment of the robes to denote or call attention to her femininity is unnecessary and in my opinion a distraction from the serious business of the court.

Sorry, but I will forever associate those collars with Judge Judy! lol

If you can't tell the difference between a male justice like Roberts and a female justice like Ginsburg, you're in trouble.
