Reforming the dress code

The Issue

When you bother people at school and force them to change clothes or send them home because they are wearing fishnets under a skirt/dress, wearing leggings without a long shirt/dress/skirt, or their cleavage is visible. You are telling them that her body is distracting. This is a form of body shaming. Instead of telling people to cover up “because it’s distracting”, you should be teaching others that people are not meant to be eye candy. In other words, people should be taught how to control sexual urges. People shouldn’t be stopped from wearing shorts, skirts, strapless shirts, and tank tops. People need to know that a person is not an object, and that people shouldn’t sexualize thighs, shoulders, stomachs, cleavage, ect. These shouldn’t be considered distracting, they should be considered body parts.
