Is this how kids dress at most public high schools?

Hope none of them are interested in any a medical or public health field.


Mine is in the BA/MD program at Brown and lives in sweatpants. Fortunately, wearing jeans was not considered crucial for being a future healthcare provider.


But wearing masks is crucial for a future healthcare provide. I assume PP wasn't objecting to the pants, but to the protest that this was filmed at.

Not sure how that precludes you from dressing properly.


Wearing a little skirt outside in February in Chicago is not dressing properly.

Oh, but to a proper misogynist it is.

Yes. But that is a discussion for a different thread. This one is about the sweatpants "uniform" found at schools that don't require a different uniform.

College sweatshirts are in.

I love that I can wear whatever I want. I don't wear PJs, but I do sometimes wear sweatpants (like now). Super comfy. I'm glad my kids can do the same.


I now work from home too, and literally get up in the morning, put on leggings and a t-shirt to go for a walk an hour before work starts, then come home, and change back into my nightgown and spend the day in it. Right now I'm wearing my nightgown with a sweatshirt because it's a bit cold.

Some public schools here do require uniforms. IMO, it can be a good thing (reduces competition, focus on learning, appropriate public attire.. ie, not showing so much skin). But, if they made the uniform sweatpants/sweatshirt in the winter, I would be fine with that.

Looks very immature, trashy and unserious compared to say...



Are those real people snap shotted or where is this?


As a woman (and former girl) I would have much preferred to wear joggers or sweatpants to school than have boys try to look up my uniform skirt all day and have old guys try to flirt with me (and also look up my uniform skirt.)

I also resent that the only time in my life I could have experimented with what I wanted to wear, I was forced to wear a version of business casual I would have to wear everyday of the rest of my working life.

The public school students look fine, warm, and comfortable.

Mine had a dresscode but it allowed us to wear jeans, sneakers, tshirts (as long as they were plain or school branded) and sweatshirts (again, plain or school branded). That's pretty much what we all wore.

Reminds me of that movie "Forgetting Sarah Marshall" where she dumped her boyfriend for being a man-child slob who wore sweatpants 7 days in a row.

I can't stand and don't own sweatpants, nor have I bought them for my young children. However, complaining about how teens dress and especially targeting it as sloppy is peak Old. Find a different hill to die on, OP.

I saw two high school girls at a sit-down sushi restaurant, wearing what looked like pajama pants. I thought "wow how disrespectful," and then I thought "omg I'm getting old."
