So I got sent to the dean today for wearing this top. My study tech teacher said that I was “exploiting” myself and that it could be a distraction to the other students. I got up out of my seat and told her that I wasn’t going to listen to her dress codes. In a way, she was being misogynist and slut shaming and I think that’s wrong. I will continue to wear what I want and nobody can tell me not to. The fact that womens bodies are sexualized and objectified so much angers me and that’s the reason why this happened. I’m going to wear what I want, how I want, when I want and that’s it.
I was there, reblog the shit out of this guys
I’m a guy. I can’t wear a shirt like this either, even though I’m not going to be wearing a bra. it’s dress code. It’s not slut shaming. You can’t show your bra like that at most jobs. why should you at school? Yes sexism is wrong and all that, but you can’t get ‘angry at the patriarchy” because you can’t show your undergarments in public. I’m not going to wear jeans with a rip in the side or the front that show off my flowery boxers, because that’s just not appropriate for school. Have some professionalism. You can wear whatever you like at home or with your friends or whatever, yes, but school prepares you for real life.
At work you can’t have this attitude of “I wear the fuck ever I want.” and expect to keep your job. School is the same way because it’s trying to teach you that lesson. That’s unrealistic; almost any job you get is going to have someone tell you what to wear or what to do because you work for them and you represent their company. If you don’t look the way they need you to look, that makes them look bad. A tattoo parlor probably isn’t going to hire someone who dresses like a nun and a top company isn’t going to hire someone who comes to work in a tank top that shows off her bra or a guy that shows off his ballsack.
You can’t blame patriarchy for this, I’m sorry. You can’t blame sexism for this. If I wore booty shorts and you could almost see my balls through my semi transparent flowery goddamn boxers, I would get in the same amount of trouble as you, and it’s within good reason.
I am a feminist and I have to agree with this one
Yes, I am a girl and I totally agree with this.
AGREED! Where whatever you want on the streets, at home, at parties- but school and work have uniforms and dress codes for reasons. It CAN be distracting, and it’s a learning/working environment, not a casual get together. There’s a difference.
Finally tumblr starts making sense on my dash.
F I N A L L Y
im a feminist. i will fight for bare shoulders, but i have to agree. if this was just a bra strap then i would be a little disappointed. but your showing the whole side of your bra hon. sorry, but i back that comment. :/
If you had been out in public and a comment was made, punch that bitch in the face. But you’re in school, and by the use of dean, a fancy school, which means a dress code, and a certain setting. Its the social contract, you’re going to a somewhat professional setting, so you should act and dress the part. Like the person above said if it was just a strap I’d be on your side, but its a whole side of a transparent lacy bra, hell a slight move and why bother wearing the shirt because part of the cup is already starting to show. Wear that to nearly any work environment and you’d be fired on the spot, or be very close to being. Hell even in a tattoo parlor since it could be seen as a health code violation.
And this is not slut shaming this is a teacher telling you to cover up your undergarments the same way they’d tell a boy to pull up his pants his underpants are hanging out.
