Teenage Girl Pulled From School After Deputy Head Says Her Clothes Remind Him Of Bondage

35. I see. Well, apparently that girl's mother is doing just that.

So, that's your answer? It's an interesting one, indeed. Maybe we can look at it another way and make a comparison. In some states in the U.S., it's almost impossible for a woman to obtain an abortion. Maybe those women should look for another state to live in. I mean, why should they have reproductive choice everywhere? They can just move. How does that sound to you?

That school has a dress code: students wear standardized uniforms. On this one day, they invited the students to dress as they chose. That girl chose to wear a gothish/punkish outfit, complete with leather choker and garter bands. She's covered almost her entire body. Yet, the official at that school said that she looked like she practiced bondage. He appears to have used his imagination in a way I don't find appropriate.

Maybe we could get a photo of a line of girls who attend that school as they were dressed on that non-uniform day. That would be informative, I'll bet.

Here's what I think: The school official was really offended by the clothing because it wasn't conservative enough to suit him. It was a bit cheeky, as they say in the UK, and not standard enough for him. Besides, he was slightly aroused by her, and that disturbed him, so he blamed her and her attire.

I though it was a creative outfit and not at all unsuitable for a dress-down day. I'd have smiled and said, "Kids..." and gotten on with my work day and let her get on with her school day. That's what I'd have done.
