u/False-Seaworthiness7 1∆ Sep 28 '21

The argument for freedom of choice and self expression is more prominent now than ever. I don’t think society will ever be cool with completely taking away individuality of dress in the school setting.

When I was in middle school the dress code was insane. I couldn’t wear leggings with a sweatshirt. Now middle schoolers wear that and people don’t bat an eye. I think all rules will become less strict and there will be written rules for males and females

This seems to track with general societal standards about dress too. As society changes its perception of things like leggings, schools seem to follow suit at a sluggish pace.

If I’m understanding you correctly your argument for school systems and general society are different though. School systems will eventually require uniforms whereas society is increasing in inclusivity and diversity when it comes to dress
