I remember a kid in my high school who wore so much axe body spray you knew if he had been in a classroom long after he physically left. And no one ever said anything to him.

I have a large chest and have had to worry about being dress coded constantly. When I was in 5th grade I was told to cover up because my bra strap was showing. I was wearing a dark green shirt and the outline was barely visible. Plus, the teacher was pretty far away from me so she was actively looking at my chest at 11 years old. Grown adults really need to stop staring at children's body's, girl, boy, doesn't matter.

No one should be staring at your child, adolescent or adult body. Look is one thing, but staring is another level. It’s creepy to stare at anyone regardless of age. I don’t consider anyone pubescent to have an adult nor a child body. I consider it as adolescent, nor are children and adolescent bodies attractive. Even if you was post puberty or 18+ it’s still a no. Ps. Anyone who finds adolescent or children body attractive needs help.

I’m glad matpat finally covered this topic, and in such detail. It’s seriously unfair what students have to go through just to stay in class. I’ve heard horror stories from so many friends about being forced to switch out clothing in front of school staff, among other things.

Once a teacher saw that I was wearing the color white (girls weren't allowed to wear white at my middle school, boys were) and I thought that she was going to give me a write-up, but instead she pulled me out of class halfway through the school day because she bought me a new shirt so that I wouldn't be dresscoded by any other teachers.

I had a friend in school who would wear a thin strapped tank top and walk past multiple teachers without getting dress coded. A girl did it once and she was immediately dress coded. My psych class did a whole survey on it because it's such a problem at my school.

I literally had a friend in high school get into a TON of trouble because her bra strap slipped down her shoulder and you could see it peaking out of her shirt (or at least that's what the Male teacher said). Meanwhile a girl who was on the varsity track team and academic team wore mini skirts and Daisy Duke style shorts and the school administration never batted an eye. MatPat missed the part where some schools favor their Athletic and Academic (specifically Academic Team, FBLA, etc) students over their other students.

It also doesn't help that many dress codes are entirely open to interpretation. A friend's 8-year-old daughter got dress coded a couple of weeks ago. Two teachers said her outfit was "inappropriate" (no specifics offered), while her regular teacher and the principal said it was fine. The outfit in question was a charming blue floral romper that hit just above her knees, covered her chest, and had fairly thick spaghetti straps topped with bows. I've seen more scandalous outfits in a Southern Baptist church. She looked...like an 8-year-old girl.

I go to school in a german gymnasium and as long as our clothes aren’t showing the “private areas” we are allowed to wear whatever we want (except hats for some reason). It doesn’t change our learning in any way and the students are extremely peaceful for the most part. Most of the teachers are even chill enough to just let uns get up in the middle of class to go to the toilet without saying anything. That said there are some weird rules as well. For example we are not allowed to sit on the floor during the breaks.

My main thing with dresscode is the fact that it just gets selectively enforced by staff, at least in my experience. I remember having the spaghetti strap rule, but multiple girls were allowed to break it. We also had the no black nail polish rule, which got one girl dresscoded in the most stupid way; her nails were done with a black french tip, and she got in trouble for that. Caused an issue because I think she was wanting the school to reimburse her if she removed it because they'd been professionally done. Meanwhile I had all kinds of black nail polish on and never got called out for it.

It also sucks how "thicker" students (usually girls and brown) get reprimanded much more. They could be wearing the exact same thing as another skinny student, but because they're thicker, it's "inappropriate and distracting"

You didn't even realize you got caught until the next school day when you were given a detention slip. They tried to control it down to our underwear. A girl got her period and leaked on her white underwear. She was expelled for it. I got yelled at for wearing a colored swimsuit to the pool by my science teacher during summer vacation. The MAYOR himself and his family saw this and chewed out the teacher. PLOT TWIST: The biggest gang in our area had their colors be black and white.

OH MY GOSH because of my family’s religious beliefs, we don’t wear clothing that is super revealing. My mom has spent so many hours for my older sisters sewing their prom dresses so that they are modest.

I'm an 12 year old girl that developed fast, so I have the body of about a 14 year old, I was wearing ripped jeans and the rips only went up to my knees, the principle came up to me while I was getting on the bus and told me that with my body shape I can't wear that and she didn't want to see me wearing tight clothes or anything with holes in them. Made me feel really self conscious about my body and I hated every second of the conversation.

I remember the amount of things banned for “relating to gang activity” like colored hair and any kind of head covering. The real kicker? I grew up in the middle of nowhere. As rural as you can get. THERE WEREN’T GANGS. The closest you got was groups of escaped cattle causing property damage, or the gang tags on the trains that came in from Chicago, over a thousand miles away.

In that case why should parents police their kid for what they wear? Kids are stupid, they don’t understand the world around them or what they’re really doing. It’s a adults job to teach them, even if it may seem harsh to the kid it still will help in the long run. There’s been a lot of cases of parents being rough with their kids but in the end that roughness made them into more friendly respecting adults rather than being spoiled.

My high school started the hair dye bulls*it, so I bleached mine blonde and put black tiger stripes in it. They said "you can't have unnatural hair colors" and I said "blonde and black are both natural colors" and I won the case. Boom. If kids are so distracted by something so simple, the kids are too stupid to be in that grade or need medication ASAP. And then they banned trenchcoats after columbine. Dress codes are usually a whole bunch of f*ckery that has no real effect. You're also dead on, a gang can change their colors or specific logos so banning them barely affects anything.

I don’t have dress codes, I’m BRITISH *laughs in uniforms*

I’ll never forget being a first or second grader hearing my friend be told she couldn’t wear a tank top because of the “3 fingers rule”, especially when the reason given for those rules is that they might be distracting. If you are being “distracted” by a 7 year old, jail immediately. Also I disagree with the no logos rule, kids don’t have to deal with trademarks and saying someone can’t wear a shirt with a logo out of it will siglehandedly destroy the closets of most middle school boys who only wear Nike or a similar brand every day

As someone whos currently being homeschooled. I see this as a win. I dont have dress codes, just whatever I want.

0:52 shirt over T shirt is both ok and not ok XD Edit:also leggings too

Dress codes have, and always shall be, about maintaining control: control over attitude, control over character, and control over understanding. In an academic setting, this makes sense: you are literally teaching children about the world around them... but their reaching implications, especially in later years of education, are alarming and dangerous.

Maybe some parts abt it but still, kids need to learn modesty and decency in how they present themselves. No matter what race or gender

I would also like to point out that body size also matters when it comes to bias in dress codes. I would wear the same thing as a skinny girl and I would get in trouble and she wouldn’t. I was once told by a teacher that my body is more distracting than other kids. I also did horrible in school towards the end. I didn’t get to walk at graduation because I was supposed to stay another year. Half way through that extra year, I dropped out and got my GED. It was insanely easy for me to get. Like, I didn’t even need to study. I felt like I could have passed it freshman year if I had known I could.

Exactly. I was kinda disappointed that he didn’t talk about this in the video. Once I was behind some girls heading into pe and they were all wearing basically the same shirts-which I should add they wore pretty much everyday. The pe teacher checked the first two in, but the last girl who was a bit chubbier than the others, instead was asked “where’s the rest of your shirt” I felt so disgusted and felt horrible for her, and that was in middle school.

My friend got yelled at repeatedly by our vice principal for his hair

where I live they just tell you to cover up but they still allow more risqué stuff like thigh highs with a some what short skirt and a crop top and there’s also no detention

I’d like to add: it’s really weird and gross that tank tops are “distracting” to wear when you’re in younger grades especially. First graders aren’t going to be distracted by shoulders.

There dress codes in younger grades?

I think next Matpat should talk about backpacks, since there are schools that are not allowing students to carry them throughout the day, or completely banning them. It was a major issue for me when I was in middle school, having to carry all of my heavy books by hand and constantly having bullies knock them over

Really? Is it a "women pockets" kinda situation? look at those children and their backpacks. what could they be carrying in them? who knows? MAYBE SOMETHING ILLEGAL!!!

@@KapotaJC This is the reason that they are banning them though. Harder to sneak a weapon in if you don't have a bag to help hide it.

i remember seeing a thread of students where that happened, and the stuff they were using in place of it that wasnt banned by current rules. like one kid brought a baby stroller, one was using a janitor cart, one had a carry on suit case

There are places where the teachers are the ones moving from class to class, not kids, BECAUSE the kids are expected to bring a lot of material in one day and changing it every day, and asking them to bring it around it unfeasible These places are called Europe

yeah we weren’t aloud backpacks at my middle either and they once tried to ban girls purses but that didn’t go so well for them 💀

Jeez, why do the smallest dress codes come with huge punishments🤬😡🤬😡

It’s like everyone dies if you don’t wear the uniform
