Why this petition matters

Started by Tonia J

The schools dress code targets and harms girls (as well as boys), to violating freedoms of religious expression, school dress codes can often do more harm than good. We should be able to dress to express ourselves and feel comfortable as a whole. What we wear is not distracting to anyone. Dress codes teach girls a young age, that our bodies are to be hidden. To show skin is to be “skimpy, fast, distracting” They teach that young girls' bodies are provocative and sexy. By banning cleavage and thighs, dress codes teach girls that their bodies are objects and they are a distraction. Dress codes perpetuate the vibes of “women must protect themselves” instead of teaching men to behave themselves and act like decent human beings.
