Statement: Should fashionable dresses be banned?

Arguments:

1. Yes. Fashions keep changing and hence consumption of cloth increases.

2. No. Fashionable clothes are a person's self expression and therefore his/her fundamental right

  • A.Only argument I is strong
  • B.Only argument II is strong
  • C.Either I or II is strong
  • D.Neither I nor II is strong
  • E.Both I and II are strong

Answer: B

Correct answer: Only argument II is strong

II invokes personal freedom of expression, which is exactly the ground on which a ban on dress would have to be justified or defeated, and it is a strong objection. I is weak: increased consumption of cloth is a minor economic side effect, it is not obviously undesirable, and it comes nowhere near justifying a prohibition on what people may wear.
