Looked at his biography. He was a 'town kid', the son of a professor of philosophy at the University of Illinois. He probably grew up looking down on the 'farm kids' who wore jeans into town as hopelessly ignorant bumpkins. (That even happened in small towns.) He sounds like he wants to preserve the ability to judge a person's place in the social hierarchy by their clothing; all those people in jeans! he can't tell if they are lumpen proletariat or computer geniuses. Oh horrors. Bet he hates for women to wear pants, too. Heaven forfend that women should actually be comfortable in their clothes.
