Melbourne school bans leggings because boys can’t concentrate

That’s bad enough, but the school’s justification is worse.

“Schools have a right to talk about uniform and they have an obligation to make sure their students come to school dressed, however the reason behind this is the issue.Source:Supplied The school nurse told her: “You’re not allowed to call your mum and you cannot change. She cannot bring you clothes. You need to go back to class and you have to wear these borrowed pants.”

That’s so outrageous. It’s akin to blaming females for what they were wearing caused a male to rape them. RapistsRape Victim blaming is never acceptable. How about teaching boys to be responsible for their actions!!!! StopVictimBlaming Clothing doesn’t cause sexualisation

This is a reflection of the Principals inhibitions in controlling his sexual desires and fantasies. Not the majority of men’s normal behaviours of decency and control.

That's right. Rules, schmools. Get them ready for their first overseas holiday MeMeMe

The stupid is strong in this article...

Sexism, teaching girls to adjust their appearance and make concessions for males.

Isn’t there a uniform...?

Is it leggings or is it ‘active wear’

Hopefully all the parents of girls have removed them from the school and all parents of boys have explained to their sons that self control is their own responsibility and that what girls wear is no excuse for bad behaviour. I also hope the teacher has been disciplined.

Not wearing clothes will be worse for those poor boys! stupiditypersonified

Seriously?

My high school had the option of wearing skorts which girls often pulled up high and no one batted an eyelid

In my experience it is not the clothes that distract young boys it is the hormones. Hard to do much about that.

Let’s not get carried away. School uniform policy is that skirts can’t be too high to put in plain English. In other words, dress respectfully. But you add your spin

Students have uniforms, what's the problem

Tell the school to getstuffed

This is reasonable, kids are there to learn, not be distracted by their raging hormones.

Last time I was in Victoria car licence plates displayed TheSmartStateor even TheEducationState. This is extraordinary. What planet are these teachers/school leaders on. Promoted to their level of incompetence. No way could they work in a classroom with 28 quick thinking teens

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 a school with some common sense. My daughters will never dress like the skanks many teens do today. ItsNotCuteItsSlutty

I DON’T CARE what anyone says but I have ALWAYS dressed ‘modestly’ and was viciously raped as a 21 yr old many yrs ago. The vile things he said indicated that yes, dressing looking like a hooker a lot of teens today do, it makes perverts more inclined & wanting to rape etc

What’s the issue? I thought these days everyone identified as genderless

Shit like this wouldn't be an issue if it was easier to home school hahaha

From 1908?

I probably would have been expelled if I arked up at everyone who told me I was wearing the wrong clothes 20 years ago

Sounds Islamic to me..

Just make the uniform a niqab & accuse anyone that objects of Islamophobia.

This is ridiculous! I was able to work fine with a boner at school.

That’s was the best part of school , being distracted by the girls!

Should be banned. 'As a jewel of gold in a swine's snout, so is a fair woman which is without discretion' Proverbs 11:22

Boys don't need a excuse for not concentrating.

1st world problems!

Feminists, do what you’re told and stop whining.

General opinion seems to be It is ridiculous to ban anything short of indecent exposure. Or is there an arbitrary line dictated by fashion that shifts and we need to guess at? All a bit random really.

I thought we live in progressive world, this doesn’t sounds like progressive at all

Do these school principles not see the news. Do they not see the outrage that other schools stating this have caused. Do they not realise how backwards this thinking is

Does that apply to female teachers as well ?

If I was still in high school I'd be furious; but women wear leggings everywhere and I work in the CBD so eh

Nice!

That’s why girls get higher grades unfair advantage

the school should be shut down
