Medieval men were what they were raised to be. They were taught by fathers and they were taught by mothers also. Men and women accepted the ideas that they were given from antiquity without the types of questioning consideration we have seen since the nineteenth century. They believed their attitudes were right and proper and did not see a reason to change.

Were the clothing during the Renaissance and the middle ages the same?

There was a certain overlap between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, particularly in Italy, where the Renaissance began about a hundred years before the Middle Ages ended. So there was a point when they were the same. Fashions change, however, and this was especially true in both the Late Middle Ages and the Renaissance. Apart from that bit of overlap, clothing of the Renaissance and the Middle Ages were different.
