This whole thread is ridiculous. Unless schools are policing boys' underwear, they have zero business policing girls' bras.

Dress codes should be applied evenly - and yes, that would include letting boys wear skirts or kilts if they wanted, if they were allowed for girls. I'm sure the girls who are bold enough to take a stand for their own bodily clothing autonomy would support boys in their own endeavor to break free from clothing stereotypes.

Exactly.

I doubt I’d notice. Like I said, I’m not staring at women’s breasts.

Nor at men’s crotches.
Much of the time you don't have to stare to see it. I'd bet if those female students had their braless breast inside a blouse and blazer it wouldn't even be an issue. The issue arises when a students dress is distracting to other students or tends to cause, as I said earlier, bullying, insults, harassment, etc.

How would a company enforce this. Or school. Check for bra straps every morning?



Maybe there should be a determination each school year or when a woman is hired whether they need a regular bra, underwire or just bandaids to cover the devil nipples.
That's why it should just be a general dress code for females with breasts.
Men generally have "breasts" when they are overweight and generally no one is aroused or distracted by them.

In general I agree but why do students think they don't have to abide by dress codes and rules? Adults do in the working world. I don't think the issue is telling people to cover up their anatomy so much as to reduce distraction. Teens and tweens are not going to restrain themselves and act as adults so your going to get a lot of unwanted behavior and problems when you allow certain dress and behavior especially what is viewed as sexually explicit.


All they have to do is wear a bra during school hours/events. They can take it off as soon as they leave school grounds. I hate bras and shoes but I have to wear them to work because as an adult I have to respect the dress code of my employer but off they come as soon as I get home.

They do. If a guy is walking around "sagging" his pants so low that you can see his underwear then they tell him to pull them up. But for the most part, men don't usually break the dress codes.

I do not think employers should be in the business of policing underwear either. They can have standards such as clean, professional, etc. which are of course subjective but they really have no right to demand that women wear specific undergarments while men theoretically can go commando without any repercussions.

You got to have some kind of standards otherwise people would continue to "push the envelope"

These same girls will be very sorry when in a few years those same breasts and nipples are headed south and pointing to their belly buttons!

The only reason we freak out is because we’re such prudes.
If a woman today in a typical work out gear was sent back on the 20/30s she would be arrested.
Finally, some sense in this thread.

Designating something "forbidden fruit" makes it more titillating, not less.
