Why do the High School Girls Wear Their Uniforms So Short??

Gross! Stop checking out kids! Teenage girls are children!

But, get real, when girls wear tiny shorts and revealing tops, it's intended to be sexy. And while they may not be seeking sex, per se, they get that that sort of dress is "hot" and appealing to males. The whole point is to be a little daring and risque. It's not the summer temperatures that motivate girls to wear uncomfortably short shorts.

I get that fashion has few limits right now, with celebrities regularly getting in the news for wearing sheer dresses with just a thong out in public.

But to blame the viewer for finding provocative dress provocative, well, that's silly.

Ewww! They are still kids though! They aren't doing it for adults! They aren't thinking that hard about it. and if YOU think it's sexy, then YOU are the problem.

Parents should also check what their kids are wearing to dances. You have girls trying to fit into mini-dresses that aren't made for every body type. The dresses show too much when they fit ‘right’ and even more when they don’t. Bring back age appropriate attire please.

i think part of the point is that based on what they're wearing it's easy to misidentify their age.

you see a half exposed butt wiggling down the street and as a man, your eyes are drawn to it... you look up and see from the t-shirt they're wearing that they are a rising senior at Sidwell and the proper reaction should be "oh no! gross!" but whether they're doing it for adults or not, whether they realize it or not adn whether they should be looked at isn't what draws the eye. it's what should keep the eye from going back.

Haven't you heard about the magic button you can activate just by demanding on the Internet that everyone changes their behavior to suit your personal biases?

It always works, of course. All social problems can be eradicated with a few keystrokes (especially if you add !!!!!!)

This whole dialogue is meaningless letting stuff go into a whirlwind that doesn't care in the slightest what is said here.

Easy. Parents tell their DDs they cannot wear such short skirts. I guess some parents want schools to do the dirty work for them.

Oh my.

And how, pray tell, do you suggest the parents enforce this?

Cannot wait for this answer.

Look at your kid before she leaves for school and tell her yes or no. Was the answer worth the wait?

And then she rolls it on the way to school.

Then you have a child who is willingly defying you. Hardly earth shattering, but it's something you as a parent must deal with as you see fit. There are some parents who are fine letting their daughters wear tight-fitting, revealing clothing, and others who see it as typical adolescent behavior as these kids rebel and begin to claim their agency and autonomy. It also isn't dealing with the root issue of the problem: how our culture conditions us to almost always view women's bodies as sexual objects.

You are working two different issues.

You are simply being unrealistic if you think parents can control whether their girls roll their skirts.

Right - how hard can this be? Yes girls may roll their skirts but most of the skirts I see are HEMMED to be this length so a parent is definitely involved and is cool with the exposure. I find it extremely odd that parents see their daughter walking out of the house this way and are totally cool with it.

You’re looking at these girls’ skirts often enough and closely enough to know they are hemmed short and not just rolled? What is wrong with you people?? Stop staring at children’s butts!

Yes I am a MOM at a school where my daughter’s skirt is the length acceptable per the handbook. Of course I’m trying to figure why everyone else skirts are shorter and of course my tween complains her’s are too long because of her peers. So yes I’m looking. With reason. 🕵🏻‍♀️🕵🏻‍♀️

you're going to stump them wiht this one, but they'll eventually come back with you being a sicko for trying to sexualize children by telling them that it's not appropriate to display ALL parts of their body in public.

"IT'S ONLY INAPPROPRIATE FOR THEM TO SHOW THEIR ASSES TO STRANGE MEN ON WISCONSIN AVE BECAUSE *YOU* TOLD THEM IT WAS ABOUT SEX! STOP PERVING AND LET THEM ENJOY THEIR OWN BODIES, AND ALSO LET STRANGE MEN ON WISCONSIN AVE ENJOY THEIR BODIES!"

You seem to be fixated on schools girls on Wisconsin Ave.

This whole dynamic seems to work well in Japan.... I don't see what's the problem?

Then raise your daughters not to roll their skirts.

Tell us exactly how you do this and how you enforce it and check on your daughters during the school day.
