ANYONE who wants to wear a skirt should be able to comfortably and without fear of being objectified, discriminated against, or any other negative reaction.

It's crazy to me that this is even something worth banning. Banning skirts because it's "inappropriate" and "distracts the boys" is perpetuating the idea that girls are simply objects of desire for boys. This is not an ideal a school should be portraying. If the boys are getting distracted by it, teach the boys not to be; teach them that girls are not objects of desire, things to simply be looked at, but are in actuality people too.

This is ridiculous. Skirts shouldn't be banned because a few male instructors and students can't seem to contain themselves. Skirts make you uncomfortable? Get over it. We shouldn't have to suffer because of your inability to control your thoughts.

This partition is so important. Girls do not openly sexualise other girls, girls do not openly sexualise boys and boys do not openly sexualise boys in the school environment so why should boys be allowed to openly sexualise girls? They shouldn't. If you are to ban skirts for being short and revealing then PE shorts should be banned as well for both boys and gIrish. PE shorts are just as revealing yet no one sexualises them. We can't continue to teach girls that boys education and silly teenage desires are more important than a girls education. Education should be equal. Everything should be gender equal.

WHY WOULD YOU BAN THEM AND PUNISH THE STUDENTS? BAN THE TEACHERS THAT ARE LOOKING AT STUDENTS INAPPROPRIATELY FROM TEACHING.

the fact that this is not only for the good of the boys' education (insinuating its the girls' responsibility to keep them in line) but also for mail teachers is nasty asf. like if you dont want male teachers staring up girls' (who are MINORS) skirts, stop hiring fckin pedophiles.

Why are they doing this because this is a way to show that women have their own sense of beauty and it's giving them less confidence to show who they are if they are saying that people are getting distracted because we are wearing skirts they can control it they don't even have to look at that person they need to focus on what is important to them instead of looking at people skirts because if you're saying is distracting the why don't they wear skirts for themselves so they won't have to worry about getting to struck even though they are

One day, I hope there will be a world where women's bodies are not sexualized.
