I'm GUESSING this, it probably isn't right though!.!.

Tights over the top are more like pants and for some really weird reason pants are considered more "masculine"!. And women wear tights under skirts which is considered more "feminine"!. So they're wanting their men to look more masculine and their girls to look feminine!. Well thats what I think anyway!.

I don't like stereotypes!. Sometimes society in general too lol!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Because they can get away with it!.

Both my sons and my daughters agree that some brands pull on the hair shaft too much making things a bit itchy!. Whatever!. But, it is the boys who can simply "get away" with it!. I don't know about other girls, but my girls say that they would wear them on the outside too if it was acceptable!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I never thought about this before though wow!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Because they do!. I don't think there's any rule about this, but it does seem to have become the general custom!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
