I suppose these restaurants and clubs that insist on dress codes think their more conventional customers might stop going if they had to be among people whose clothes they didn't feel were appropriate, though I have trouble understanding how they could possibly be so uptight - I'm strongly welded to practicality and have never yet felt the faintest objection to the guy next to me not wearing a suit, under any circumstances.
My girlfriend watched the show Bar Rescue for a while & some struggling bars/clubs were advised to implement a dress code because they had a reputation of violence. The dress codes were about stereotyping people's looks to keep the thugs & riff-raff out.

I don't see why a conspicuous badge wouldn't work just as well. Unless the jackets had padded shoulders to make them look tougher than they were or something. But they wouldn't hire weedy-looking people in the first place would they?

Oh by the way, I don't give a s**t about nightclubs either. It's like somebody put a turnstyle on the mainstream human mating game. I don't want to pay good money out to go where it's not quiet enough to talk to people.

Things I don't give a crap about:
-Strong profanities (especially since they're being glorified)
-Politics
-Peer Pressure (namely negative ones)
-Drugs and Alcohol (though I'm fine with coffee)
-Live-action remakes and reboots (talking to YOU, Disney!)
-Nintendo Switches (as much as I like some games, such as Fire Emblem and Pokemon, I just think the company has gotten really greedy nowadays)

Some videogame thing I think. It seems a common special interest with autistics, though I've never cared for it.

Oh that explains why I don't know anything about it. I gave up with video games after Manic Miner.
