Why is it accepted that School girls wear Mini skirts but Teachers are not allowed?

I also graduated from high school in 1969. We had a dress code, girls had to wear dresses or skirts that hit their knee. Many of the girls became experts at altering the length of their skirts on the way to school, we wore them as short as we could by hemming them shorter or rolling up the waist to make it shorter.

I was in a school with 4,000 students, 10th - 12th grades so I am sure the staff was unable to keep up with all the dress code violations. I do remember many times seeing a staff member holding a yard stick with some girl kneeling trying to make her skirt touch her knees. The girls were sent home to put on more appropriate clothing.

Two years later, in 1971 all the schools started allowing girls to wear pants and shorts. What a relief, finally the girls had protection when the Santa Ana winds were blowing and "sandblasting" all the school girls legs from Kindergarten through 12th grade.

Most Australian kids wear / wore a uniform to school. A good idea in my opinion, as it stops the "fashion parade" aspect of school and puts all the kids on the same level. When I was in high school, the mini skirt came into being, but we wore an ugly pale brown dress - knee length - when at school.

AFTER school -- oh yes we all threw aside the uniform and wore our skirts as short as possible!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
