Allow girls to wear leggings in school

Created by G.H. on October 02, 2014

girls should not have to change the way they dress because of boys. Schools are teaching us girls that our bodies are inappropriate and that's making girls that already struggle with accepting their bodies feel even more self conscious. For the most part girls wear leggings just to be comfortable not to distract guys. Even if they do distract boy why should we be teaching girls at such a young age to not be themselves and to wear certain things because of the male population, it just worsens the problem and makes normal to discriminate against women. We understand that schools want to keep it a "learning environment" but there hasn't been a case of students having significant grade drops because of leggings in school. Stop sexualizing women and let us wear leggings
