There was a day when t-shirt's with any slogans of any type at all would have been considered a hazard to the good order of a school, much less the slogans that suggest sexual innuendos as this does.
That was my Dad's day, when he was a school Principal, and ran a good school.

But I agree with you to the extent that we were better off in the days when students wore button-down shirts and ties to school -- even to public schools. There may be no going back, though.

I sent a young man to the office for wearing a t-shirt advertising "Sex Wax". He was sent back to class with the t-shirt still on with no action taken.
