Code

understand that terms like “distracting” and “unladylike” are code for “slutty,” but punishing and shaming girls for doing what society has told them to do sends an extremely contradictory message, and possibly a dangerous one. Dress codes that utilize these code words force girls to ask themselves, “Will I be turning someone on if I wear this?” I can’t imagine that too many middle school girls would have been concerned about this without a dress code teaching them to think it. Moreover, if…

Would Uniforms Solve Dress Code Problems? What’s wrong with being a woman in society, humans were all created the same so why are women told to hide their body for “the sake of men”? Growing up girls are told to cover up that way a man can't stare at you a certain way, and yes people have sick minds, but we’re in a school environment, we should teach boys how to “control” themselves instead. Developing years do tend to lead to feelings and changes but people still need to be respectful. Most…

Changing the girl's dress code would be a highly recommended change. Also a few changes in the boy's dress code would be nice too. If we are buying the clothes we want and plan to wear what's the problem with wearing them to school. It seems like we are spending are money on only weekend clothes. Since we can't wear them during the week at school. The change in the shorts dress code is that we should be able. To wear shorts how ever short we want them to be. Without having to get…

I am writing this proposal in order to provide a solution to a major problem in school dress codes. In all public schools, the dress code is enforced to have students “dress for success.” However, school dress codes, particularly for female students, are far too strict. In most situations, when a student violates dress code, the student is removed from class and held in an office until they are able to change into clothing that better fits the schools standards, or even given detentions or other…

Take it off! You’re not school dress code! These phrases are heard daily at the Woodlynde School. Teachers will yell at students to take off their jackets, sweaters, sweatshirts, or fleeces everyday because they’re not in dress code. What teachers don’t know is that, students strongly dislike this rule. The school’s dress code for outerwear costs too much, it’s easy to lose, and it looks too much like others. Children who want to learn shouldn’t have to pay more or take off their own sweaters or…

thief burst through your wall and stole silver, but soon after is caught. Does he deserve to die? According to Hammurabi's Code, the thief would be pierced or hung in the hole that he entered (Document D), but is this punishment just? King Hammurabi reigned from 1792 BC to 1750 BC in Mesopotamia, he being one of the first rulers to write down a complete set of laws. His code, an accommodation of 282 laws, was inscribed on a large stone pillar called a stele (Document A). King Hammurabi strived…

Roughly around 1800 B.C.E. in ancient Mesopotamia, Hammurabi, the ruler of Babylonia, issued a law code. This law code, known as the Code of Hammurabi, was the oldest law code to survive in Western Civilization. It consisted of 282 laws which attempted to regulate Babylonia society and provided a glimpse of this First Civilization’s social and economic life. Hammurabi’s reasoning for providing these laws was “to bring about the rule of righteousness in the land, to destroy the wicked and the…

talking about dress code. I believe we deserve the right to dress however we want. The thing that sucks the most is that girls are the ones that get mostly dress coded than boys. The only things boys can get dress coded for is if they wear a California shirt or a plain blue or red while girls get dress coded for off the shoulder tops or anything too short. The thing is there are many things girls can get in trouble for wearing. So my purpose in this speech is too argue about dress code and how…

Dress Code It's no lie that a lot of girls complain about the dress code at school. I myself think that some of it is silly. I think it is silly until I look at some of the girls who don't come even close to following the dress code. I then realize it's not as silly as what I think it is. I think we need to enforce rules on the shorts. Woo some of those girls shorts. Man, do they need to cover up! I think that we should all dress modestly. Statistics show that the girls who don't dress…

the stringent dress code that was put into effort. The fact that students’ freedom to express themselves have been taken away is very unconstitutional, especially in a country that has always promoted free speech and one’s freedom to express themselves. Neither a school administrator nor anyone else should have the right to tell a student what to wear or to look. It should not be constitutional to tell a boy to cut his hair as it does in the Perryville School District dress code, as the length…
