Some women workers in Japan banned from wearing glasses because they 'give off a cold impression'
Quartz, the hashtag “glasses are forbidden” has been trending in Japan since Wednesday, after Nippon TV aired a program detailing the different types of employers who refuse to let women wear glasses on the job. The rationale is absolutely bonkers. From the article:
“Domestic airlines said it was for safety reasons, companies in the beauty industry said it was difficult to see the employee’s make-up properly behind glasses, while major retail chains said female shop assistants give off a “cold impression” if they wear glasses. Traditional Japanese restaurants said that glasses simply do not go well with traditional Japanese dress.
