Vestiphobia?

 Vestiphobia is defined as having a irrational 'fear' of wearing tight-fitting clothing.  This usually starts off with some sweating and anxiety feelings....leading to claustrophobia.  

Back in my early days of the Air Force.....I'd been issued 'greens' and 'blues'.  You had two sets of dress blues....the summer 'lite' version, and the wool version for fall/winter. 

With a passion, I hated the wool uniform.  I won't say I had anxiety problems,  but I would sweat and feel extremely uncomfortable.  If I was forced into wearing it, I'd usually go spend my lunch-hour at the barracks where I took off the uniform entirely for forty-five minutes.  

I came across the term  Vestiphobia this week and thought a good bit about Senator Fetterman....the guy who walks around the Senate in shorts and extremely loose clothing.  It hit me....yeah, he's got a extreme case of Vestiphobia.  

The fact that the Senate is bending over backwards for Fetterman?  Eventually, some member is going to show up in a golf shirt and short-shorts, and they will realize allowing the Fetterman 'rule' to exist....makes no sense.
