Erasing a sexist dress code from Gilroy High School

Erasing a sexist dress code from Gilroy High School

The Issue

We want to eliminate a sexist dress code. On hot days, covering up isn’t so easy. We are uncomfortable and hot in class, making it harder for us to focus and enjoy our time at Gilroy High. Instead of teaching young women to accommodate to men, they should teach men not to sexualize underage women. It is more distracting to pull us out of class, then our shoulders, bra strap or midriffs being exposed.
