Wasn't there a time, not that long ago, when student protests were, you know, about something? In New York City's legendary Stuyvesant High School, kids are bucking the administration en masse and taking on another critical issue: dress codes. They fought back hard recently at new regulations in a campaign they called "Slutty Wednesday," during which they wore risque outfits to school and passed around flyers that said "Redress the Dress Code." Edgy!
Some of the draconian rules the brave students are protesting require, according to The New York Times that any sayings and illustrations on clothing should be in “good taste.” Another calls for shorts, dresses and skirts to extend at least beyond the fingertips when arms are extended straight down. A third bans the exposing of “shoulders, undergarments, midriffs and lower backs.”
“We work our asses off here and school is about learning. Clothing is not important,” ninth grader Lucy Greider told The New York Post. Some of the boys protested the new rules as well, claiming offense that the administration assumed they were unable to control themselves in the presence of girls in short skirts, and definitely not because they want to see girls in short skirts. So what do you think about "Slutty Wednesday?"

2 dated a woman with low standards of cleanliness
and by wikipedia...
Slut or slattern is a term applied to an individual who is considered to have loose sexual morals or who is sexually promiscuous
They can dress the way they want to. They're giving the world exactly what it needs - more beauty! If you don't like it, don't look at them.
How'd they get to be so cute?! Did they buy it like a suit? Were they hoppin', shoppin', boppin', were they spendin' lots of loot? How'd they get so cute?!
they wanted to make a statement. they did. what's the big deal?
or, to put it another way: what's the point of 'freedom of speech' if you don't use it?
and when the ACLU defended the Ku Klux Klan's right to march in any neighborhood they choose under the heading of 'free speech' it wasn't free speech they were defending. I'm sure the courts will be happy to know that. then they can get rid of all sorts of things they'd rather suppress.
pay attention now - - action = speech under the law. always has, always will. or what's a Constitution for?
Girls, if you dress like it, guys will expect you to act like it. You wouldn't tell a guy yes I'll have sex with you when you have no intention of doing so, why would you dress in a lie? I know that your clothes don't give anyone the right to rape you, but they sure do send signals you may not intend.
