Stop Sexualizing the Dress Code


Stop Sexualizing the Dress Code
The Issue
Girls/women attending the Nettleton school district are unfairly being dress coded. Today i saw a girl get dress coded for a headband; that wasn't against the dress code. We get dress coded for a shoulder showing or too much knee showing. They say that a shoulder is a distraction to our peers. How? Why only dress code the thicker girls instead of dress coding everyone. The amounts of times I've seen them dress code a thicker girl for a little hole in her pant leg and let the littler girl go with a patch cut out her jeans is ridiculous. They let boys wear very short shorts and show their shoulders why cant we? Instead of only targeting one portion of the audience target the whole audience.
