10th grader in trouble over 'Juicy' skirt
BECKLEY, W.Va. - Nichoel Hawks' "Juicy" skirt is a little too much for school officials in Raleigh County, West Virginia.

It's not too short, but too suggestive. The 10th grader was forced to spend a day in the principal's office after she wore the skirt to class. The skirt has the slogan "It's all about Juicy" along the backside.

School district officials say it could lead to sexually harassing comments from other students. Nichoel's mother, Jennifer Hawks, notes Juicy is a brand name of an expensive line of clothing. She says officials didn't know about the brand and made a mistake by banning her daughter's skirt.

1. Why do girls wear those shorts and skirts with print on the ass?
Maybe I am just a traditional guy but I just like the good ole cute blouse with a nice mini skirt outfit and nothing written on the ass.

4. I dunno, I don't gaze that much at their asses
because if I did, I could hear it from a mile away, shmack, its just I think the text is stupid looking, nothin wrong with short skirts, many girls look great with them but it just looks stupid to have writing on the ass I think.

3. Exactly
Edited on Wed Sep-08-04 06:37 PM by name not needed
I'm not going to glance at your ass cause there's something written on it. I have other reasons.

5. Glad you agree
Sorry for the late response, I was getting syllabus's signed. I dont wanna look at asses for what they have written on it, though I concede, I look more up, not just breasts, sorry if this offends some but I am a guy and I don't gaze too long, but I also am attracted to eyes for some reason now, but it mystifies me why a girl would have written something on her ass, its just tacky.

8. Do girls get that little white skirt when they enter a mall now
It seems to me that every girl has one now. No writing on the ass but pretty short. I tried to find one, but I can't but surely I am not the only one who has seen every girl wear one of these. Not that I'm complaining but it is almost a uniform now.

12. oh *gasp* wow, outrage, scandal
Juicy Couture is the name of a clothing design company.

It's a skirt with something on the ass. We see those or shorts with dumb slogans just about everyday in high school. Nobody really says anything about them at all anymore because they're so commonplace... and very rarely do kids ever take the stuff seriously that's written on them. The school board should maybe... lighten up. It's not like she's in junior high and doesn't recognize the pros and cons of wearing that kind of clothing.

15. The article doesn't mention the girl's ass
like if she had a flat ass and was advertising it as "juicy" (regardless of the fact the company is known as Juicy), I'd agree that she should have gotten in trouble, but for lying.

If the girl had a nice butt, then this is doubly ludicrous.

Just my two deranged cents.

18. What I've noticed...
It's always really skinny girls who have no ass wearing those shorts/skirts with something on the ass- or it's girls who wear them too small.

I don't get it.

21. I wish they'd catch some of them at my school
like "I love boys" and such. And the shortness of them...Jesus it must take about a 3 by 2 in cloth to make those in some foreign country, and then they sell them for retail here for 50 bucks.

27. I say shoot the parents
Edited on Wed Sep-08-04 08:44 PM by MissMillie
I'm sorry, but clothing that labels its teenager wearer as a sex object is completely inappropriate ANYWHERE.

If it's sick for adults to want to have sex w/ kids, then why do adults let their kids where this kind of clothing?

Flame away. I know I'm old-fashioned. But I just think it's inappropriate.

34. I agree
For the kids at the school I teach wearing that kind of clothing is dangerous. The johns cruising for real prostitutes aroung our neighborhood may someday cross the line and do something stupid and sick as one of our kids walks to the city bus downtown.

28. all depends on school policy
Our school has a written policy against suggestive comments on clothes. That wouldn't meet our standards here. It doesn't matter if it's a brand name or not, the manufacturer knows it's suggestive as does the wearer.

31. Yeah, she should be shooting Iraqi children so that Shrubbie McFuckWad
can make some more dinero.

Bout time they started cracking down on these teenage criminals, and stopped pestering the world with their investigations into 9-11 and Iraq and all that.

It's sex that's the problem, not violence or war or corporate greed or the worship of physical prowess and manliness as proven in the beating of wives.

SEX is the problem!

Well, sex and crack. Damned welfare queens. Should go after them next.

Oh.
My.
Gawd!

Little low-cut tops and HUGE boobs. Are we into another big-boob genetic cycle (seems to happen every 10 years or so) or did all these girls opt not to get the new car for a HS graduation gift?

40. more and more I understand why we need school uniforms
The one public school district in my area uses school uniforms. Mind you they keep it pretty simple (either Khaki or dark blue pants and plain white shirt) and they offer assistance to those families that can't afford school uniforms (I had a neighbor in my apartment complex that got a voucher good for JCPenneys where she could get 2 pairs of pants and 3-4 shirts)

I believe in freedom of expession but schools kids are trying to push the limits with how they dress & act. Oddly enough the comic strip "For Better or For Worse" just finished a segment about school dress. April got stop by her mother from wearing a skimpy dress to school and when she got to middle school, it was all the new 6th graders dressed up in as little as possible. The principal had a school assembly to put a stop to it

42. the brand name being juicy makes it ok?
So would they have still apologized if the brand name had been slutty? If it had said "It's all about slutty" or "It's all about Teen Sex." It shouldn't matter what the brand name was.
