      Why don't schools teach boys to keep their hands to themselves then discriminating girls who look fine?? I cannot relate to any of this since my school has uniform but this is common knowledge.

    My male teacher had me call home because the holes in my pants were too “high”. After our encounter he had a talk with the class. He said things like “Girls should NOT wear pants that have holes above the knees” “ it makes me and my male students uncomfortable” “No one wants to see your big thighs”. He began threatening suspension. He was to worried about our pants to focus on the fact that his punishments were taking time from our education.

    “ Your shorts are too short”
    WELL IM SORRY DOES MY LOWER THIGH TURN YOU ON?
    I got called into the office for that and wearing white colored contacts. It was too “distracting”. So there’s no problem with having fluffy rainbow hair you cannot avoid looking at from all angles, but my soulless white eye contacts? Apparently I can’t wear those! But oddly enough my friends were more pissed about it than I was.

      midnight magic they’re saying bright hair is easier to be distracting than eye contacts because hair can be seen from all angles, and it really pops out when it’s colored, but eye contacts can only be noticed if you’re holding eye contact with the person wearing said contacts

    My entire life,I've always been told:
    "Here's the rules for school:
    •no fighting, even if they hit you first
    •never wear a shirt without tucking it into your jeans first
    •keep your head down, don't draw attention
    •dont put that rainbow pin on your backpack! It will ruin your reputation!
    •never interact with your gf in more than a platonic/best friends kind of way in public
    •cover up, boys don't know how to control themselves
    •dont shower at school, I don't care how much you stink, boys love sneaking into girls locker room
    But I have never,not once in my life, heard a boy being told this:
    •no means no
    People set expectations too high for girls, and then get angry when we fail to meet those impossible standards. For example:
    •we're always told makeup would make us look prettier, but when we wear it, we're "fake" and "trying to hard"
    •we get told how quiet we are,but when we start talking, we're apparently "talking too much"
    •we can't express ourselves through clothing, bc "looks are the reputation of the eyes"
    This is really not fair to us...

      Honestly I don’t understand this
      In my skool they have this super strict dress code like we can’t even wear 6inch skirts and we have to have long sleeves or if we’re wearing short sleeves it needs to be till our elbows
      We can’t wear sweatpants or leggings bc they reveal our “behind” we can either wear the skool uniform (which is hella hot like we gotta wear the when it’s snowing crazy asf outside and the wether is freezing kinda like the poles) or we gotta wear like a full on formal thing they were to someone’s grave when they die.(no offence jus tryna like explain wut it looks like and feels like)
      Anyhow in our skool boys actually control themselves very well like they can control themeselves and they say we’re distracting the boys when all we’re distracting are old people working there giving us education.
      Bruh my friend literally went to our headmasters office for violating dress code and the MAN THE DUDE LITERALLY SEDUCES AND TRIES TO HAVE THE “THING” with my 15 yr old lesbian friend.
      Honestly Idk wut to say and since there was no evidence that this happened the skool didn’t rlly try to look into it and the police were like: “your jus a bunch of kids wut would u know” like in these cases the police should at least be there for u and help u isn’t that why they exist in the first place?
      And yea this was a kinda weird story or wutever but like honestly it’s rlly annoying me.

    When my peer asked why our teachers say revealing our shoulders is a distraction to boys, my teacher said it was an attractive nuisance. For those of you who don’t know; an attractive nuisance is when you have something in your yard, like a pool, and if someone trespasses and gets injured in the pool, you’re liable. The comparison is pretty much saying that if you are sexually harassed or raped, you’re liable because of your outfit choice.

It was so insignificant that they didn't realize it was there, I doubt they would've gotten in trouble if they broke it.

      I remember once I wore a dress to school with leggings that went down to my ankles cause the dress wasn't below my knees, so I thought I'll just wear leggings its fine. Literally I go to school and during lunch one of my female teachers that is wearing a skirt past her ankles go "hey thats to short and I can almost sleep your butt." (My dress was past my fingertips btw) I was so angry cause I told her its past my fingertips and so its allowed and she was like "No and if i see you wearing a dress like this again ur going to the principle, it's inappropriate." And you know now im scared to wear dresses to school 🏫 yaay

    2) Sure I have thicc thighs and it was summer so I wore some short overalls so I get dress coded and told “don’t let me catch you in that again or you will get ISS (in school suspension).” But then this girl who’s legs were as skinny as twig walked up with shorts were you could basically see her underwear didn’t get anything!

      You ranted, here's mine.
      I worked around the dress code that I had because I struggled with my looks and self esteem. All the other girls wore tight fitting polos and pants that looked like they were painted on, they didn't need the belts that were required because everything fit perfectly. I was hiking up my pants at least three times a day, even with a belt. I drowning in my oversized polos, screaming silently as I tried to claw my way to the top, past the girls who were nothing more than makeup, gossip, and lies. I drowned in the school system, because no one questioned the girl who wore baggy clothes. It was assumed I was trying to get attention from the boys, when in reality I was faced with the brutal reality where to be popular you need to be mean, to be pretty you have to be skinny, to be perfect you had to be stupid. I look back at those years, and I want to change something, anything. But I can't. So I sit and remember the girl who was ignored because she wasn't pretty or popular. I pray that none of you will suffer in silence like I did.

      Exactly! I came back from school a year ago from a small vacation and I always hang out with the same group, sometimes the people who play football/watch them (boys and girls). And course, since us females have to have so many dress codes, I got in trouble because I was breaking like three dress codes? Shoulders, legs (jeans had holes in them) and then some other one that I can't remember.
      I swear to the all spark. None of the boys stared at mw like the teachers said they would- It was a normal day. I watched them play football, and the girls won (because it wad the first game they started and thw boys always say they go easy on the girl's) then my group came over, convinced me to go join tag with another group of football players which forgot their football, and so I did.
      Near the end of the break we were walking back to go get ready to go inside and one of the boys, I'ma call him N, says "Oooh *;-;;-;* is breaking the dress codes.".
      And I just laughed it off. "N, how?"
      Then he nodded to my shoulders but then went straight back to walking his ex walk off.

      Statistics don't decide whether or not a person may commit suicide. If that's true, there is still a 20% for the female gender. That rate is referring to the world, correct? There's at least a billion people in this world, so even if male suicide is more common, there is still thousands of female suicides. My point- somebody expressed their opinion about the video, and you felt it necessary to make this dark. Then you tried to back it up with statistics, well I'm not sorry to say you're wrong. Your comment was uncalled for, and you need to apologize.

      +Professor Chocolate Cake lmao, how does the statistic that 80% of suicides are male mean that this girl won't kill herself? If you want to talk statistics then I would say it's unlikely she'd kill herself off of this one comment but you know nothing about her life that could make that possibility higher? Unless the statistic was that 100% of suicides are male, that doesn't eliminate the good 20% of females or the possibility that this girl could join that statistic.

    My school has told me to stop wearing a shirt that doesn't cover my front and back while wearing leggings because "boys are all over this school and you're sending the wrong message." I told my parents this (I'm in 8th at this time) and I asked them "Why should it be my fault if the teachers let the boys say these things and look at us like this?" I moved away and soon after I had someone tell me that my best friend felt like no one liked her because she wasn't "sending signals that people wanted her to." Women all over the world. Speak up and do what's right. Wear what you want. Because at the end of the day, you shouldn't care about what others think. Be you and don't let anyone stand in the way. Honestly, I'm ashamed of the way teachers sit around and just watch people getting bullied or harassed and don't say anything until the worst part is over with. I was bullied for my looks and skills all through 7th grade and they didn't ask me or do anything when I said something to them till the end of the year.

  • @IlluminatingNight
    @IlluminatingNight 7 ปีที่แล้ว +363

    Dress Code:
    It’s first period-
    My male administrator tells me I need to change
    Because they’re worried if I raised my hand too high
    They could see some of my mid-drift
    And that could be a distraction
    Second period-
    I’m still sitting in the office.
    The balding man asks me if I could call a
    Parent to bring me a change of clothes;
    The same parents that have to work weekend
    Just to make a living.
    It’s like he’s forgotten I need my education
    Just to make my 81 cents to his dollar.
    Third period-
    I remember freshman year.
    Our female administrators told the freshman
    girls in our class we need to “cover up” because
    Boys can’t control themselves and if something
    were to happen to us we’d be ‘asking” for it.
    I found out later that no one told the boys
    To keep their hands to themselves
    I was taught my education is less important.
    We learn through small gestures over time,
    Live a plant growing we don’t see it until it blooms.
    Fourth period-
    One of my classmates asks me how i can expect respect
    When I’m not dressed like I deserve it.
    Like a quarter inch of my stomach made a difference,
    Like she didn’t know what it was like to be objectified,
    To be treated like she was less than the emotional counterpart,
    Like she didn’t grow up hearing “this is a man’s job.”
    Fifth period-
    I was upset the Bible said that Eve was made from Adam’s rib,
    And maybe I was made from his rib,
    But there are 100 trillion cells in my body and each
    And every one of them is still multiplying.
    I consider this an accomplishment in itself.
    I can’t stop thinking about this,
    But I’m in English class, and maybe this is symbolism,
    But there are women in my life who don’t know that life
    Radiates from the palms of their hands and my
    Mother sculpted me from bits of herself.
    Sixths period-
    I remember the first time I was cat-called.
    I was 12 years old, in my forest green school uniform
    Walking the block back to my aunt’s apartment
    When a man told me the things he would do to my boy
    As I passed him in the street.
    My body that I was struggling to feel comfortable in.
    My 12-year-old body that was still trying to figure out
    How to put mascara on
    Or stuff my bra without making it too obvious.
    It’s the final bell-
    And the rap culture announcement
    Makes its way onto the intercom
    Remember students:
    The boys will open your bodies like books
    We have given them permission to read
    Even when the only word printed is “no.”

    I remember my sophomore year it was our first day back from winter break and our principal came over the announcements saying that if any girl had leggings on to send them to the office for dress code. Up until that day girls were allowed to wear leggings if they had a shirt long enough to cover their butt, but all of a sudden it was a problem no matter if they did have a long enough shirt. There was a line of girls out of the office and wrapped around one of our hallways all the way until 4th period. Our principal told them they should be ashamed of themselves. It was ridiculous that all of these girls had to miss out on their education bc of something so stupid.

    PREACH. At my sisters highschool the cheerleaders uniforms are extremely revealing. They take a small lean over a desk and you can see their underwear bright as the sun. No one tells them to put on shorts and no one makes the uniforms a little longer. A friend of my sisters wore a plan t-shirt to school and got a weeks detention because the shirt was cut too low. As if her collar bone screams "SEXY". As if her collar bone would turn on a man more than a cheerleaders underwear. At my jr high the dress code is really strict. We have to wear a collage shirt, a collared shirt, or a spirit shirt. If we wear shorts they have to be jeans and they have to go to the knee. We can't wear any other pants but jeans and they can't have holes. If the jeans have designs we get dress coded. As much as this dress code pisses me off, what makes me really mad is they tell us at the beginning of the year no athletic shorts (basketball shorts basically) but teachers favorites and teachers kids come to school in basketball shorts almost everyday. A friend of mine comes to school out of dress code everyday and never gets dress coded, If i came to school in what she wore i would be dress coded the second i made it off the bus. The dress code is not only restricting but it's unfair
