It disgusts me how instead of teaching boys to not sexualize females, we stop girls from dressing the way they want, only because some hormonal teens can't control themselves at the sight of a leg or a bra strap. It's basically saying that boys' comfort and ease of focus is more important than girls'. It's saying that boys' education is more important than girls' (yes, comfortableness affects your learning) It's basically saying that boys' success in life is preferred to girls'!! Oh, and also, if you're a male member of staff and find minor students wearing skirts distracting, then I suggest you leave teaching. Looking at your students in that way is more inappropriate than wearing a skirt will ever be. Grow a fücking pair.

It's disgusting that they're trying to control what girls wear. Ridiculous.

Regardless of any other arguments, skirts are formal businesswear and are worn in every other tier and facet of society.

I am proud of the girls of this school for taking a stand.

if we can't wear skirts, surely female teachers can't wear skirts/dresses either...?

Disgusting that girls should be banned from wearing skirts if they want to. Boys need to get over themselves. Stop telling people how to dress, their body their choice.

Skirts are not a problem. The reaction to them by some men and boys is. So let's deal with the problem and teach men and boys to treat girls and women respectfully, whatever anyone is wearing.

There are bigger issues than girls wearing skirts in school, which I always though was standard, smart uniform anyway. The notion that it is distracting to male teachers and students is rediculous, should this be a real issue to consider it won't be long until sharnbrook teachers are not allowed to wear skirts and dresses to school either! Silly and unnecessary

This is appaling in this day and age. Why should girls be singled out just because they can wear a skirt. Sexism at its finest. Sharnbrook has turned out to be a school full of ridiculous rules.

Maybe males should earn some respect for females and learn not to get distracted. Instead of teaching girls a lesson by banning skirts, teach boys respect.

End Sexism!! Women should be allowed to wear whatever they want. Male staff shouldn't be looking and sexualizing young girls, that's just creepy!

This is ridiculous, my sister should be able to walk around without being accused of being a distraction to boys. Teach boys to not objectify the female anatomy instead of criminalizing female students.

If u would do this in sweden, a no skirts rule in school. The school would get punished so bad. I think its truly, very very disgusting. Justice for women.
