Female bodies are so sexualized that- according to school regulations I am not allowed to reveal my shoulders because it is deemed distracting, but males are permitted to exhibit shirts with half naked women on them. Not only is this degrading it is also unjust! It's time to take a stand! This petition is only helping us move forward. Every signature is promoting change.

The stories coming in from you all show that this double standard happens in schools across the country every single day. I am currently compiling these experiences to present to the school board. Take a picture of this page and post it on your Facebook today so the administration knows we are watching.

The momentum behind this campaign proves that students are tired of being policed for their attire. Text the link to three friends right now and post it on your Facebook wall so we can turn this pressure into a policy change.

it makes no sense that a shoulder is distracting but a literal pornographic print on a guys t shirt is totally fine. fix this.
