The two teens came to school wearing very similar outfits and filmed their day, later posting the video on TikTok. Both Drew and Kenzie wore crop tops all day long, but only Kenzie got in trouble for how she dressed.

Bored Panda reached out to Drew to talk about his viral video and school dress codes. "I believe the reason for the dress codes is not for the reason of bringing girls down but a way to control them.

If teachers and administrators can tell them what to wear, then they have free reign to tell them whatever else they want," he shared. More info: TikTok (Drew) TikTok (Kenzie) Instagram (Drew)
Drew and Kenzie dressed up in crop tops to prove that their school dress code is sexist
Everything was fine for the majority of the day
The duo even danced in their crop tops in front of their teachers
However Kenzie was written up during 7th period because she was showing off her stomach Meanwhile Drew didn t get into trouble at all

"I knew the video had potential and I knew I had to post it to show the biases of dress codes, but I did not expect that much exposure," he said. Unfortunately, despite the wide circulation of the video, it hasn't had the desired impact at school. "Sadly, nothing has changed at my school, nor other schools.

Albeit it's great that we're bringing attention to this prevalent issue," Drew said. In Drew's opinion, if we want the situation with sexist school dress codes to change, we have to be proactive, instead of leaving the issue for others to solve.

"Bring awareness and act! Don't just sit on the sidelines, actually go to school, and when teachers and staff write up you or someone you know, protest!"
Drew has been filming himself blatantly breaking the school s dress code for some time now
He still hasn t been called out Drew believes that the opposite would have happened if he were a female student

Drew's idea was to dress similarly, but also to make Kenzie's outfit slightly more discreet in order to call out the school's hypocrisy. "Just so you could show how biased they really are," he told BuzzFeed.

Throughout the day, the two friends didn't have any trouble with the staff. In fact, they even danced in front of a bunch of teachers in their crop tops at one point without any problems whatsoever.

There weren't any issues until 7th period when Kenzie was written up for "showing her stomach." Drew, meanwhile, didn't get into any trouble at all, despite his outfit clearly not covering his stomach either. The school staff told Kenzie that her shirt was too revealing and offered for her to go change in the resource room. "Honestly, it just makes me want to wear clothes like that more because the standards are so not the same," she told BuzzFeed.

The school that Drew and Kenzie go to prohibits crop tops, ripped jeans, spaghetti straps, as well as straps that show 'too much' shoulder. What's more, students are also prohibited from wearing dresses, pants, and shorts that are above the knee.

Drew has been filming himself blatantly wearing clothes that would get him in trouble if he were a female student, but so far, he hasn't been called out. "There were a bunch of comments saying that I should do it with a girl and see if she would get dress-coded. I had known that dress codes had been unfair for a while, I just didn't know to this extent.

3 3points reply Om Om Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago I'm in Mexico and my "uniform" in high school was literally blue jeans, and a polo t shirt with the logo of the school. Women did have a skirt, but most of the year they were allowed to wear the jeans, and tbh I think years after I graduated it was allowed all year long (most girls preferred the skirt though). Jackets were also allowed, as long as they were black, blue, white or gray.

If a kid's family can't afford to buy them new clothes, they might come to school wearing the same old clothes and be judged for it. If they wear a uniform, no one will notice that they're repeatedly wearing the same outfit.

8 8points reply Jo Choto Jo Choto Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Here in the UK, school uniforms for non-private schools are really, really cheap, like you can get shirt, trousers and sweater for as little as £12 total. The premise behind uniforms has always been to provide school identity for the students and to prevent prejudice against those children who maybe can't afford the cool clothes or brand name clothes etc. It's supposed to prevent socioeconomic differences playing too big a role in school.

And the kids have all the rest of the time to wear what they want, including evenings, weekends and all the school vacations. 6 6points reply Daphne Williams Daphne Williams Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago (edited) Uniforms do not have to be expensive, and if the entirety of your self expression comes from your clothing, that's some pretty shallow self expression you got there. I had a friend who grew up in an area where poor kids were bussed to a school in a wealthier area, and all of the rich kids could "express themselves" (I'm using this term lightly, because a lot of teenage clothing choices are born out of what they think will impress other people) with the latest trends and brands and would mock and humiliate the poor kids whose parents couldn't afford to buy them the best or trendiest stuff.
