“Too many girls dress like street corner whores.”
One of many reasons to support school uniforms; I don’t have daughters, but if I did she would hate me...

I went to a school one year that required uniforms.
I had a neighbor who attended the local Catholic high school (my brothers and I transferred to public school after tuition got beyond my parents' ability to pay). His mom worked in the school's office. At the beginning of each school year they measured all the girls for their uniforms.
One year, since his mom worked there and he could access the office, he pilfered the list. He and two co-conspirators made multiple copies and distributed them to all of us adolescent boys in the neighborhood.
"Complete Compendium of Catholic School Girls' Measurements" was the hottest underground publication ever to sweep the young males our neighborhood.

(getting lost in thought back to 1972....)Those early 70 years were the no bra years at the college I attended.

“Nothing works except banning girls themselves if youre trying to avoid distracting a teenage boy.”
I still see old school buildings around with the separate entrances for boys & girls; our students have never been as smart as they were when they were schooled separately in the same buildings...

Yeah, but how else do you draw attention to yourself without going naked?
Make no mistake, those wearing this stuff are not entirely unaware of the effect.

Yeah, try going through adolescence in Southern California in the 70s.

When I was in Jr. High in the early 90s, it was "biker shorts" that were creating a commotion They were quickly put on the banned list.
But this managed to slide???

Yeah, I looked it up also. I guess that’s why my wife is always telling her to wear stuff over the top — the long sweater or t-shirt or whatever. With the pelvis and rear covered it doesn’t seem all that immodest to me.

Whenever I hear the phrase “because that’s the style,” I have a good laugh. So if the style is having various parts of your anatomy exposed, that makes it valid? How about having dead animals on top of your head ala Johnny Depp in the Lone Ranger movie? Would that be alright if a lot of people did it? “Because that’s the style” is an illogical argument.

My 58 year-old wife wears yoga pants quite a bit and leggings on occasions; but she has earned the privilege.
To: MNDude
I remember our school dress code from the early 70's. No tanks tops,boy's hair can't go past the collar,and girls could not wear pants!

So - ban leggings and yoga pants because it is distracting for boys... but use Planned Parenthood developed sex-promoting (errr... sex ed) materials... makes so much sense...

DOLPHIN SHORTS, remember those MMMMM God were they distracting.
At UCF, there is no dress code. The girls all dress like Daisy Duke. I’m not complaining though.
But one girl had SO MUCH rear hanging out it was hard not to stare. Not much has changed since I was a kid.

I remember when I was a freshman at a Catholic high school fifty years ago, the nuns used to get exercised about girls with skirt hems above the knees and blouses with unbuttoned top button. I still remember one ancient nun declaiming to the class that nobody wanted to see the girls’ “knobby” knees. All the boys, like me, just bit our tongues.
To: Gamecock
My sister was the same way with my parents; she didn’t want to dress like a prostitute, but she wanted to at least get her ears pierced...
