"Heck, let's try to find a way to force more men to become fashion
designers, which the women are clearly driving us out of with their
discrimination"

Actually, many, if not most, haute couture fashion designers are men. See
http://www.newfaces.com/magazine/designers.php for example. If you would
have mentioned nurses instead, yes, I bet there is some discrimination
there. At least the public seems to view male nurses as somehow weird
people, unfortunately.

This is one reason why high fashion is so bloody bizarre, so utterly
unlike anything a sane woman would actually wear, and apparently designed
for stick insects or rather thin men rather than actual women.
