uniforms - even in virtual school.


 

School uniforms are the last, tired gasp of a dying patriarchy. You see a DARK bra under my blouse? Oh, God! Who knew girls wore those! School uniforms, with long sleeves, aren't made for pandemic washing. A guy told me that girls in school uniforms are a core **** motif. I told him his grasp of **** tropes must rival that of our school board. School uniforms are meant to UNsex otherwise provocative girls. p.s. I write short stories too =]

I worked in a school for 16 years the 'office style uniform' was taken to extremes by some of the senior girls and was so provocative with tight blouses and short skirts :-( hugs jan xx

This brings back memories. We wore uniforms 1st through 12th gade. How well I remembe those dull, unfashionable uniforms the girls wore. Your last stanza says it all, I have seen pics of some of my former classmates after they got out os school and found them quite provacative. Perhaps the uniforms were a means of population control.
