Search Results: dress size

I remember an incident when I was in 7th grade.

I lived in a very hot climate at the time, and everyone wore short-shorts (even though it was technically against dress code). I was a goody two-shoes for a long time and didn’t wear shorts, but finally I gave in and put them on, since nobody else was getting called out.
Feeling much more comfortable, I went to school and avoided a heat stroke! However, halfway through the day an announcement came over the intercom:
”not_a_queen, please report to the office.”
I went, wondering why I was being summoned to the gates of hell (aka the VP’s office).
Apparently, my shorts were “inappropriate,” “distracting,” and “broke the dress code.”
EVERYONE ELSE WORE THOSE SHORTS. SOME WERE SHORTER THAN MINE.
But, because I was not an anorexic stick, I got in trouble. Having an ass is a crime, apparently. I distracted someone (probably a male) to the point that my body had to be covered for his sake—even though it was 110 degrees (Fahrenheit) out and people regularly got heat stroke or other heat-related injuries. I felt ashamed and objectified, and (to this day) I rarely wear shorts outside of my house.

Similar incidents have happened to other girls. Oh, she’s wearing a tank top that bares her shoulders? WHAT A CRIME!! Look, that young woman with a larger cup size and a waist happens to be wearing a tight shirt? GET OUTTA HERE!!!

So, guys, is it really that distracting? Are you unable to learn and function at school if a girl wears form-fitting clothes? Should women have to cover their bodies because you guys just can’t handle it? Isn’t that insulting to both girls and guys?

Food for thought 😋

I actually really really like his theory on body types! If you are not familiar with it, then David Kibbe's body type theory topic needs its own myTake. Forget the rectangle hourglass pear apple orange strawberry blueberry raspberry grape shape body types.

I find his theory more legit than most other fashion rules for different body shapes and sizes. His theory kind of explains why two women despite looking similar and being same weight/size (equally skinny or chubby) still can't pull off the same dress. It is definitely very helpful.
