[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see where our country is headed based on these loony responses. Let her wear a g-string to class, so long as she's comfortable!

Nobody has said that.[/quote]

Not exactly. But so much more importance seems to be placed on the will of the child rather than the greater good. Oh, mind your business, just listen to what the principal says! What BS.[/quote]

What greater good?[/quote]

How is anyone else's "greater good" served or harmed by what another person chooses to wear, exactly?[/quote]

We live in a society - what other people do affects us, and what we do affects others. [/quote]

But that doesn't answer the questions. In general, how do my clothing choices harm you, and how do your clothing choices harm me? Obviously there are exceptions, but in general.[/quote]

As adults, maybe they don't.  But I do have a problem with my 12 year old son seeing body parts that our family values as being kept private put on display at his public school.  I have no problem with sex and sexuality, but there are places where that needs to not be brought to the forefront, and school is one of those places for children.[/quote]

Ah. OK. I'm 17:14, the poster with a similar question not the one whose quote you replied to. Thanks for the explanation. I guess my disconnect was that I don't see bodies as particularly private or inherently sexual, which is why that objection didn't occur to me. I disagree with you but see how you could consider that a valid and very important point of view. That has given me an interesting angle to consider.[/quote]
