Skirts “Illegal Discrimination against Transsexuals”

Schools in the UK are being told that mandating skirts for girls as part of a school uniform may be illegal, as it constitutes discrimination against female-to-male transsexuals.
The UK government’s Equality and Human Rights Commission published a report stating “requiring pupils to wear gender-specific clothes is potentially unlawful.”
Its concern over the plight of girls thinking they were boys, yet humiliated by being made to wear skirts, was particularly acute:
“Pupils born female with gender dysphoria experienced great discomfort being forced to wear stereotypical girls’ clothes — for example a skirt.”
The Commission hints darkly that schools refusing to abandon “discriminatory” uniforms may be subjected to “costly legal action” when the guidelines come into force.
The guidelines also extend rights formerly reserved for those diagnosed with “gender identity disorders” to all who might claim them, “regardless of whether or not they intend to undergo, are undergoing or have undergone gender reassignment.”
Previously such rights were the preserve of those who had acquired a medical diagnosis of some sort, although with children as young as 9 being given such dispensation these were evidently not hard to obtain.
The UK’s tiny minority of transsexuals, thought to number in the thousands, as elsewhere consists mostly of men or boys intent on becoming women; it is at any rate apparently not thought necessary to provide such children with female clothing in schools.

if girls can wear pants, how come guys can't wear skirts?
i think UK is being very discriminating against that minority of transexuals...
They probably can. No one has tried it.
They do, in Scotland.. ^_^
FREEEEEEEEEDOOOOOOM!!!!
Hey, Fuck you. it's a kilt
It's a joke. Seriously...
And the difference is?
@ 09:35 anon:
One was worn by William Wallace to kick serious ass and the other is worn by women to emphasize serious ass.
I think there's a good point, in this silly, silly discussion.
No one would suggest that a Kilted Scotsman isn't manly-indeed, many of them fought WW2 that way.
When it comes down to it, a garment is just a garment, and it's your behavior that determines whither butch or bitch.
The difference is you don't ever wear underwear with a kilt and you do with a skirt usually
if you remember that article from a while back like 54%(?) I dunno guessing since I dun remember how much of women don't wear underwear to work =/
they never wore a kilt in ww2 they wore what everyone else was wearing mans clothes not bs "kilt"
OMFG EVERY DON'T WEAR SKIRTS CAUSE THERE ARE LIKE 2 TRANSEXUALS IN THE SCHOOL
HAHAHA OH... FUCK!
Sometimes people are incredibly stupid.
You need to be ballsy to wear a skirt or not have any. Btw think about how easily it would be to teabag someone.
What kind of idiot would expose their bare testicles to someone who might try to rip them off in rage? Makes as much sense as exposing as much as you can of your neck to an enemy.
Hahaha silly anon. Obviously the captain is aware of that! Which is why you only teabag someone when they are incapacitated.
or dead.. defiling a corpse is hillarious when its revenge and its if its a not a corpse video phones let you Blackmail them and such. Never piss off someone willing enough to wear a skirt
Well then someone should...who wants to try
I'll do it.
Little known fact that I was born a girl in a guys body. And I live in the UK.
Problem is I don't have a skirt...
Then go buy one or make it yourself. What's stopping you? Wanna wear the skirt? Go put it on!
On other news...I put a skirt a while ago and my balls froze... =P
to be honest Britain, unfortunatly, aint a skirt wearing nation its to dam cool.
Women who were skirts as uniforms tend to have tights. or long socks... fuck I love long socks to much
Double standards.
Bah it would be interesting if an article forces them in a shower at least once a day instead of stinking up the room with Brit sweat
Because their girls and guys are guys.
If you argue with a girl and you are a guy the girl is right.
If you argue with a black and you aren't black the black guy is right.
See a pattern here?
eh no isn't if your white fighting with the black guy the white guy is right. I'm not trying to be racists against my follow black folk but that's hows it been.
Minorities are always right.
the one with a gun , or bigger knife, is always right.
So blacks are right...
the one with the biggest dick i always right.
nostradamus is always right.
left is right, right is wrong
@Anon 07:22
You can have the sword the size of a car and I'll still kill you with my butter knife.
If you troll, you are right
As long as the trap is hot, then I've got no problem with it.
amen brother
...if only the were trap like Jun, Hideyoshi or Aikawa Kizuna in the real world...that I would like to see...
Hideyoshi is not a trap. Hideyoshi is a Hideyosexual
Agreed my good man
give that man a coconut!
They can in Scotland.
guys can't wear skirt cuz they have a pen0r in their crotch, its just too awkward
Actually, this is how my local high school dropped the "students can't wear shorts" rule back in the 90s. A male student started wearing a plaid skirt (kilt) during the summer in protest of the fact he could not wear shorts in high school, yet skirts could be worn. The rule was quickly changed.
So, will they make all mandatory school uniforms illegal or what?
Nekkid?
Nya?~~~
No, only the skirts if you're a wannabeman. Girls still have to wear skirts, guys and wannabegirls still got to wear pants.
Why not just let anyone wear anything they want anywhere?
Think about what that would do to the sailor uniforms in japan. I hope you realise the folly of your words...
What would they do, wear them all the time or burn them in a pile?
You ever seen the vids on youtube of 50 year old men cosplaying Lucky Star?
DO NOT WANT!
Wear bloomers on heads.
Prunus Girl, anyone?
NNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Uniforms are overrated anyways...
The words of someone who does not comprehend the true beauty of a school uniform ;_;
Blasphemous!
Hearsay!
Burn'em at the stake!
Because then you get cosplayers everywhere. But within reason, people should be allowed to wear what they want as long as it doesn't harm anyone (no Sailor Bubba.)
Yeah, unless you want to get sued by someone saying that "I can't unsee what I have seen."
Manfaye where art thou?
Seconded.
that would be considered too much of a freedom
I'm all for naked schoolgirls. Ban clothes for women because they are discriminating. ^_^
I would be for that as well if it weren't for the occasional morbidly obese or just plain "OMFG MY EYEEES" kind of woman....It'd sorta be like Artefact's galleries...
That wouldn't work because most everyone would then be a nudist.
Private schools should be allowed to set whatever ridiculous uniform rules they want. Public school shouldn't be allowed to mandate uniforms at all.
@ Diorte
It's simple of course, because all schools are fucking ridiculous in their dress code.
That, and imagine all the leather and ass we would end up seeing from the exhibitionists >_> I don't want to imagine that world.
Actually, I would have preferred uniforms over the "wear anything" concept, when I went to school. Would save me the time deciding what to wear, you wouldn't be able to differentiate between different social classes as easily. A less shallow school, simply.
u got a point there!
that wud b the perfect solution! just let 'em wear wtever 'ey want 2!
