This is what men look like in a male-dominated environment:
Men getting a kick out of women wearing uniforms, and women not understanding the "beauty" of it, is a great example of how men are much less "visually" invested, and more prone to being into what is practical.
A woman in an ugly police outfit is "hot" to some men with such a fetish, because of the idea that they're fucking a cop, not so much because the outfit looks good visually. Women get weirded out because they think it looks stupid compared to the shining diamonds and bright-color dresses that they're used to wearing in order to stand out, not so much to the men, but amongst the hierarchy of women.
Men would still find women "hot" even if they were walking buck-naked on the streets, because that has been in-built into them. Women, less so. They are much less driven by sexual impulses, therefore it takes more effort to rouse their interest. The female's emphasis on appearance is born out of her capacity to pick and choose between aspiring mates, on a more rational basis.
