some men can't control them selves and are not man enough to admit it even to their self , so they blame the women to feel better about their sorry ass

In Islam, we are instructed to be modest, ok? Clothes DO matter.

The people who buy into the dress codes think men are too stupid and weak minded to control themselves. They're also the ones that blame victims for rape.

unlike those young schoolboys who you all want to learn to control their urges immediately, most decent men already learned that and we can control the urge to act offended and make a big fuzz about it. Not being offended is also a show of self control. And as you say ... presumably.

So few men? How many men have you interacted with today and how many times have you been raped today? So few men? You're talking about a minority as though it were not even a majority but the rule and that the times you interacted with a male and weren't raped were the exception. Do you also wonder why people make fun of feminists and modern feminism?

I'm honestly not sure I understand what your comment means. Etc(deleted it, got it) Edit: Ok I think I got it now, English isn't my native language. If you mean that it's weird that people don't find it offensive when these dress codes are reasoned with it's distracting for teachers or other kids then yes I totally agree.

Vera, there is no need to make a negative assumption about most men. Most men are not misogynists.

Every normal person just dont give a f**k, because not everyone is easily offended snowflake, you know.

I have zero doubt that is a true statement

That's a uniform, not a dress code. And when applied evenly to everyone it's not a problem. The problem is that girls are policed where boys are not. In most cases when boys break dress code it has to be a case of violence or literally not wearing a shirt or something like that. Whereas if a girl's bra strap happens to slip down her shoulder she gets sent to the office for being a distraction and being too sexual. It is not evenly applied, it targets girls.

You are speaking about uniforms, not dress codes.

Ive worn uniforms to school in my day. Did NOTHING to stop bullying, especially over clothing. Someone still has the cheap shoes & someone still has the expensive pair. As for cohesion, just because we all looked alike, doesnt mean we gave a s**t. I had no school spirit & could personally care less. It was something i had to do to move onto the next stage of life. Thats it. Its high school, its not really that for most. Its about time we stop using it as a example of the "real world". If we did, maybe we'd stop seeing cliches & "high school" type antics in actual adult life...

@Macaw it's been said but I'll say it again: Uniform =/= Dress Code

School uniforms are themselves expensive and often difficult to maintain. It's possible to dress well on a budget, but much more difficult to hide when your one uniform is worn out.

I've never been in favor of school uniforms. It forces you to change clothes every time you leave school if you don't want to wear a uniform all day. Plus it forces everyone to wear clothes that they might not like and reduces self expression. Better to just let students wear regular clothes rather than trying to force everyone to be the same.

And that means getting rid of sexist dress codes and letting kids wear their own clothing. Because these girls are fighting AGAINST being objectified.

That's right, Mike. They should "objectifying" both female and male students. There are many opportunities to express yourself academically.

Women objective themselves. Guys don't dress liks.

Yes, it is easier than actually making real change.

the issue is dress code isnt enforced for guys. they're just asking for some freaking equality. when i was small we had a water day at school. the boys could wear swim trunks and no top, but the girls had to wear knee length shorts and long sleeves. because according to the school, while the boys going shirtless was fine, the female body was not.

And that line needs to be evenly applied. Plenty of guys in my high school wore tank tops but because they were sports jerseys no one cared. Girl wore a tank top and suddenly her sexy shoulders were just too much and she had to cover up
