I don't know if a girl wants that or not. Some might and some might not. The girl could be gay or asexual and hate male attention yet want to dress cute
Ah I went against the dress code in my school often. I was a rebel. Told off a teacher about being a creep then he allowed me to keep wearing my ripped leggings. More girls should stand up for themselves so this dress code issue stops
Yeah that would be distracting. definitely can’t even wear what I wanna at work because the simple fact that getting a boner is pretty much Fate as long as chicks Exist.
I went through 12 years of school wearing a uniform. Around puberty I started noticing the uniforms more but honestly it’s no big deal plus the girls rolled those skirts up super high. Made it hard to concentrate.
I have mixed feelings about it. Are you a parent of someone struggling with the rules?

Nope. I went to a high school with a uniform code, but there wasn't an actual way to really violate it because it was the same uniform for both genders, but I had a couple friends in private schools where they were extremely strict with their dress codes specifically to the point where it was ridiculous. Like you're being sent home because your skirt is 1 inch too short?!? I have a problem with that because like the sign says...it's more important to send them home for that, then to actually get an education?
Like I said I have mixed feelings. I believe in following the rules and if the rules are unfair as you mentioned then they should be changed.
In the example you mentioned where someone breaks a rule with a shorter skirt I agree with sending them home to change because it’s less about them missing time in school and more about education for future choices. Certainly if they have a job and violate the dress code at job they can risk getting fired; so better to learn the lesson now.
As you mentioned these rules are often more frequent in private schools than public and in that regard it’s the parents who are paying for their child to attend a Holme and therefore it falls back to the parents to create new dress codes if those codes are unfair.
Would you say that all things being equal girls would be distracted if boys wore short shorts while in classes also?
Take a look at the 80s/90s. Everyone was rocking some short shorts and mini skirts and weird cut offs and such, and people still went to school and survived without mauling each other. I think these types of dress codes say to boys...we can't seem to trust you to go to class if you see 1 extra inch of skin on a female student which is ridiculous and for the girls, showing one inch of extra skin is dangerous or implies you are some type of harlot when we're talking about 13-19 year olds.
If we're sending students home for these things, they are in fact missing out on their education. I do believe schools do need some rules, but the reasoning behind many of them targeting girls is over the top and implies boys can't be civilized.

It has always been about how we dress for work or school and nowhere near as much focus on boys or men controlling their urges.
I think dress code in schools should be applicable to both genders.
It's definitely not fair.
The codes should be far more relaxed than what they are.
Dress codes clearly discriminate against boys:
You can wear a dress, a skirt or trousers, unless you are a boy in which case you can only wear trousers.
No male in their right mind would ever wear a dress or skirt
Have you heard of Kilts? They are quite popular in Scotland...
Kilts aren't skirts, idiot.
@SlightlyEccentric - Clearly a comment from someone scared that wearing a skirt would turn them straight.
Nothing like snatching victimhood from the jaws of privilege, is there?
showing skin is the main issue. Guys don’t have that issue, u can really tells guys to stop getting turn on. It’s easier just to have a dress code.
Why should girls have to worry about turning a guy on? That isn't their problem.
@Apple1996 no but their creating the problem of making the boys excited in their pants. Second hand attention
It's still not their issue and something guys need to learn how to control
@Apple1996 so you saying because they put make up on, and match their outfit, to look cute they should have not look.
It's not exactly a invitation to look just cuz if those reasons
@Apple1996 so she wants to look cute but dosent any guy to look.
I don't know if a girl wants that or not. Some might and some might not. The girl could be gay or asexual and hate male attention yet want to dress cute
@Apple1996 since you don’t know they restrict them with dress codes just incase it’s for male attention. Cross ur t and dot ur I

@Apple1996 sounds good if girls like to wear what ever skimpy sexy outfit they please be my guest. Woint mind at all.
Same at my work. The men all have work clothes and the women were in yoga pants and Crocs.
Yes its distracting.

Oh I hate it. But I also hate uniforms in general and don't agree with school uniforms.
I never cared, honestly. Society lets women run around just north of naked in every other situation but grade schools.
Girls who dress provocatively are creating a distraction. As do young men who dress provocatively.
Don’t act like you’re not trying to get stares and attention you liar
Because men don't go around dressing provocative and acting manipulative
You assume it's only boys that are distracted, which is a poor assumption in 2022
Yes, girls are genderfluid and can be also distracted by an attractive girl as well. It can also cause jealousy among them.

The problem is most of those clothes are advertised by those who want to be viewed with sexual thoughts.
Girls seem to be the ones that dress "on the fringe."
Only because their skirts ride up their ass and show their butts
A disgusting double standard.
I am completely in favor of those rules.
Give everyone a onesie and be done with it.
