[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think girls or boys should wear booty shorts, midriff baring shirts, strapless tube tops, camis, or saggy pants that show underwear. Nobody should see a bra or thong.

Rules are actually easy to enforce if you bother to enforce them.

How?

Send Sarah Cameron and her booty shorts and bare tummy to the office, call her parents and have them bring her a change of clothes or take her home. If it happens again: suspension.

Then perhaps her parents will actually parent her.

I can’t believe some of what I saw on back to school pictures and at drop off.

They can do the same for masks btw.

Private schools don’t tolerate nonsense because they set standards and enforce rules. Public schools can, too. They just aren’t. [/quote]

In the eighties I went to high school wearing vintage slips and men's boxer shorts. We weren't allowed to wear actual shorts. I wore men's shirts, usually unbuttoned, over the slips. You could see my bras under the slips. They were usually black. It was hard to find black bras, as I recall, but Calvin Klein had some.

The world did not end. The boys in my class did not flunk their class. In fact, two went to Yale.

One day I wore a pair of fifties shorts that came down to my knees under a sixties minidress that came down to my crotch. That was the day I was called into the principal's office and told I had to change because I couldn't wear shorts. I nodded, smiled, went behind the nurse's curtain and took the shorts off. Wore the minidress the rest of the day. I had to sit very carefully.

Our school had no air conditioning, I must add, and it was 90 degrees.

I didn't do this for attention, or for anyone's pleasure but my own. That and comfort.

Kids are developing their style. Let them. One of the most valuable lessons we should be teaching is that there's no shame in a body, especially a woman's body, as this seems to be a specific flashpoint for so many. [/quote]
