Short School Skirts.

Nothing new, a Merseyside school is pulling schoolgirls over and measuring skirt lengths, too short.

This was being done when I was at school, in the 60’s.

The main difference it was our senior mistress who did the measuring, not male staff, which seems to be happening now. Don’t agree with that (the males measuring), but looking at some of our local girls on their way to school, they’re skirts hardly showing below their blazers.

‘‘Twas ever thus” I suppose.

(My parents, by the way, would totally have backed the school).

Clothes dont belong to one particular sex. That's society imposing restrictions on people because of their sex.

Criteria - warm for winter, cool for summer.
So skirts and thick tights for all in winter and skirts and ankle socks for all in summer?
