School Bans Skirts – “They Put Girls at Risk”

A school has banned girls from wearing skirts, claiming that they “put girls at risk.”
The mixed sex secondary school, located in North Yorkshire, has banned skirts completely lest innocent young flowers unknowingly attract the bestial attention of marauding males, naturally inclined to rape any alluring young girls they come upon.
Girls under 15 will only be allowed to wear modest black trousers, whilst older girls will be allowed navy blue skirts only if their hemlines are no more than three inches above the knee.
The headmaster patronisingly claims younger girls under his charge are “wholly unaware of the signals they are giving out” – presumably he is unaware, or, as is more likely, unable to admit that girls of this age are sexually active and sexually aware, as most clearly are.
The school admits that its inability to enforce a simple dress code on young girls has led it to ban skirts completely:
“We have been seriously concerned now, for a number of years, that girls as young as 12/13 years of age are placing themselves at risk by wearing skirts of a wholly inappropriate length.
We are also aware that parents are becoming increasingly frustrated that the school seems incapable of imposing its authority on such young children. In the end we could probably do so but the cost in terms of detentions and exclusions would be very high and disproportionate to the end we would achieve.”
The school also complains about the usual schoolgirl trick of altering skirt length based on the environment:
“Parents who have come in have been astonished to see the difference between the length their daughter may wear her skirt as she leaves home and what has happened by the time she is walking the corridors of the school.”
Just what the girls are at risk of is not specified – stimulating sexually repressed teachers perhaps.

D'aww, why pants instead? Why just no skirts? Sadface.
( :P )
In my high school, girls weren't allowed to wear skirts either? And this was like 6 years ago...
I once smelled used legit japanese school girl panties. She took her panties right off in front of me for 5,000 yen and gave them to me. They had a very light brown stain with a woonderful smell of ass.
Lucky i just started colledge
Shut up, pedophiles.
It's disgusting how many of you are "outrage" that they're banning skirts.
Why? You want to look at some underage girls panties?
The whole lot of you should be castrated and put in jail.
Rofl, sounds like the cries of a troll. Go away troll.
Anon, u mad?
We don't outrage because of that...we do that because it's so completely and totally ridiculous of those people to ban skirts.And they discriminate males by saying we would want to rape those girls.Skirts were always normal girls clothing and those people just have an obsession of banning things like it seems.
Puts the clock back 60 years with all this stuff about modesty and skirt length.
This old person!!!! 3 inch is the soul of Japan!
Long skirts are <33333333333
These fucking sluts had it coming for their short provocative skirts anyway.
Girls wearing trousers doesn't make sense. There's no sense of fashion at all. I bet that old fart don't even understand what a girl wants. Especially if he has a daughter.
nazi school...
What will they think of next? Metal under wears!?
And those guys noticed that only NOW because....?
SO they can't wear skirts? Yay they'll be running around half nekkid. Time to go on a trip.
That picture of the headmaster is badass.
Stupid molesters... they had to push it to far.

Why girls have to wear skirt to begin with?
If the one who take responsibility for this is a man
I can't think of something other than "it's easy to have sex". :P
I would say they prefer to wear skirts instead of trousers...but I can't proove it because we have no school uniforms here in germany and I can't ask anyone about it^^
Remember back in the day when girls wearing trousers was a sign of "sending signals"?
It'd be interesting to find literature or posters and bring those back.
Just more socialism. Everything is headed towards socialism.. what does wearing a seatbelt due to hurt anyone else but you? What does wearing a skirt do to anyone but you? It's more socialism and less freedom.
Perhaps you were thinking of fascism. This certainly has nothing to do with socialism, but I guess now that communism is pretty much dead that certain political elements needed a new scapegoat word to push onto the populace to blame for all of the world's ills.
i think the second comment on this article justifies this rule completely...also, why does artefact always have to insert his opinion into the end of every article? does he think we can't think for ourselves? or maybe its to make clear his opinion so that anyone who disagrees with it can be thoroughly ridiculed (yeah yeah, let the ridicule begin "why are u on a porn site if you aren't for sex everywhere, all the time, in everything you see.") Maybe I would rather not get a raging hard on when im just walking down corridor at my school, simply cus some girl is wearing the sexiest thing ive ever seen. Maybe i'd rather think about school when im at school, and not think about girls to the point that my grades suffer. I think rules like this are to help the minority of people, like me, who can't control themselves when it comes to sexuality (the "weakest link in a chain" example is fitting in this case.) A chain is only as strong as its weakest link. Help out that link, will ya?
If you cannot fathom that all news is opinion you are indeed the weakest of links.
um, i believe i already established that. thank you for reinforcing my point.
Letting children be born puts them at risk. Ban procreation.
Careful, if the politicions see that post they might do it...hell they might go a step further and ban sex altogether.
It's a church school we are talking about here(watch this video http://abcnews.go.com/International/video/pants-school-bans-shirts-10929428 ) No wander suck a thing happened. From the other hand last time i checked church is supposed to be against trousers...
Oh well new world order has done it's job well i guess.
But I like it when girls show some skin =(
There was a point in time when only courtesans wore panties... The fashion trend seems to be changing.
I smell Islam at work...
That SOB, Just wear knee socks like K-ON its modest yet adorable, that SOB should watch some anime, maybe that'll reconnect his balls into his brain.
This saddens me a lot. Not only will the confidence of girls be affected negatively more than ever now due to the school restricting free choice of uniform, but this will lead to a robot-like society in the future. That is, dull, boring and all too similar.
When you are asked to wear a uniform, you should be free to wear it how you want to. There is no guidebook in this planet that says a girl's skirt should not be worn higher than how you normally would wear one.
They might as well change the uniforms to orange like prisons, shave their heads and mind-wash the students into fully obedient slaves.
"free choice of uniform"
WTH?
Saying that when you wear your uniform, you should be allowed to wear it how you want to.
I was also trying to point out that changing uniforms to the newer ones only limit freedom even more.
Objection!Girls wearing pants in school is just...plain weird
Nope. While the ban on skirts is odd, when I was young and didn't live in UK, most of my female classmates wore trousers. Especially in winter, as it was warmer. Trousers were better: it was easier to run in them, and if there were any uncomfortable hard chairs in a classroom trousers kept you less uncomfortable, and so on. But then again the teachers very much encouraged us to play active games during recesses, and the classroom usually had a few simple toys you could borrow. Such as bouncing balls, long elastic band, really long skipping rope, and so on.
ffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!
is it just me or is the headmaster is saying that it is the girls fault if some guys cannot control themselves?
is that guy living 100 years ago or something?
good job
hes just pist cause he cant ware them hahahaha
Yep this is the way my country is going im afraid. Ugly black semi flared trousers... *Sigh* YUCK!!!
Ive got an idea: Shorts or Jodhpurs? (Cmon give us SOMETHING to work with, Give us a little candy)
Lifes getting tougher. :(
Who's he foolin'? Those girls know the higher the hemline, the higher the reportcard grade when dealing with male teachers.
That man must be gay, because skirts are the best thing made. Seriously, they're sexy and stylish. UK makes the most annoying laws ever. Seriously. OFF WITH HIS HEAD =D
Well... just to play devil's advocate here for a moment.....
While it's still largely a stupid thing to do... random sex AT school (though likely extremely consensual) may be lessened without the easy assess a skirt would provide.
But not by much. If you REALLY wanna fuck at school you are gonna fuck at school.
This is rather how do I say, conflicting. First I don't really care what the girls, wear and that it can be fine statement, but It was skirts right? Not dresses?
Still, you know the girls are altering them on purpose because they dislike something about the school.
Frankly their reasoning is BS. The headmaster is just a feminist supporter using this ban as a political platform. It's obvious the real reason the need for banning skirts was because people weren't following the rules. Why are they using the excuse that it's due to "placing themselves at risk"? They know perfectly well that it's done on purpose yet claim the girls are doing it unknowingly.
Frankly this is more of a insult than a punishment to the preteen females than it is to the boys. It contradicts this statement of protecting women and their dignity.
It's like a slap in the face and then spitting on it. The headmaster could have been clean and clear about the issue being sexually deviant and breaking dress cod. Instead they send out the message of "you're an ignorant on to what your doing you shouldn't be exploring your sexuality because you don't know that you could get yourself raped".
Frankly, I'd be pissed about this if i was a girl. I'd be like, well you're just incompetent on putting authority over us. And then you're telling us because we wear provocative clothing, we're stupid?" The girls are doing it on purpose and probably know what they are doing, cuz like they said the skirts change on their "environment". They have a brain.
While it is a bit of common sense for 12/13 year-old. They extended to the junior high and high school section as well apparently. I think that a high school girl would definitely have a sense for danger. You aren't supporting females at all you're calling them stupid.
I agree with your comment-- however he isn't REALLY a true feminist supporter. He might claim that he's "feminist" because of his attempt to "protect" women. But all in all he's really hurting young women by taking their choice away and calling them stupid--as you said.
No, what is really is: a sign that they are doing something that you personally don't like, which you are calling 'moral decadence' and which you have absolutely NO right to tell them they are doing something wrong.
To be blunt, it's THEIR body, leave them the fuck alone!
Ah, but most of the time, the parents in question have NO PROBLEM with what their children are wearing, and would rather the overly moral asshats butt the fuck out, to put it MILDLY!
I have even had parents tell me that, that they wished that the religious morality idiots would DIE and leave the world, because it would be much better off without them.
