A small protest that has gone international viral - made NBC news Today program in am and Nightly News in the pm.
Several other forums are covering it and it is not the first time that male students have had to push the skirt button
to get the attention of their administrators. In France bus drivers have rebelled and it is not going to be the end of
the very stupid archaic dress codes. Under the old rules men have less to expose than women yet are required to
wear more coverage think suit tie pants sox and shoes. Women however can wear less oh much less and blouse
skirt dress hosiery and flats or pumps for shoes. Thus results the battle of the temperature of the office - men turn
it down to be comfortable and women turn it up to avoid chilling ! Egads what a circus !

I think that some of you are really missing an important part of this situation.  If 1 boy chooses to wear the skirt, the result would be that he would be picked on and humiliated. but if 5 do this the first day, now the situation has changed and this now becomes a protest that many can participate in and not receive harsh words.  So the next day many more participate.  The take-away for me is that when given the chance with no consequences, more boys than you imagine take the opportunity to wear skirts.  When in a group, they all look happy to be wearing skirts.
we should make this type of situation more readily available and see just how many boys would willingly wear skirts.
