Sexy or Uncomfortable?

So I walked into Victorias Secret today to buy a few things when a man comes up to me and asks "Would you like me to start a dressing room for you?" well...a) i'm creeped out some man asks me that about bras and panties and what not and then b) since when can a man help you pick out those things, i mean does he even know what he's talking about? I just dont think its okay or appropriate in any way for a man to be employed at victorias secret. It's uncomfortable for women to shop and ask for help, sizes, opionions, options, etc. from a man. It's more reasonable for a man shopping at the store (for his wife/girlfriend) to ask a woman what his wife would like based on some information/ descriptions. And lastly men don't know anything about undergarments for women just like women dont know anything about style, comfort, feel, size, etc. for mens underwear, and a man isn't exactly comfortable asking a woman for help with his size and comfort for boxers, briefs, etc. Although it is sexist, I think only women should be hired to work in a place where women are stripping down to the bare neccessesities and trying on undergarments. So many things could go wrong with a man being around dressing rooms or giving advice/ size tips to shy uncomfortable women. It just helps the flow of things to hire only women and it makes the overall shopping experience much more comfortable. If we wanted a male's opinion we'd ask our husband/ boyfriend or a friend for advice on whether it looks good on, or is super sexy.
