I was actually pleasantly surprised when reading the replies of Stuyvesant students to Jezebel readers' critiques; these teenagers are incredibly articulate and clearly feel quite strongly about this issue.<br /><br />The fact is that the dress code protest is rooted in unfair and inappropriate enforcement of the dress code (as rules are held stricter for curvier students and as chastisement is apparently often accompanied by offensive misogynistic commentary). I think that we should be praising these students for being so incredibly motivated, organized, and persistent, rather than chastising them for their supposed "privilege." <br /><br />So, thank you for writing on this. I just stumbled upon your blog, but we seem to share similar interests. I will definitely be returning!Dianahttp://fashionasliterature.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
