I thought it was so old fashioned that guys got to wear pants or school shorts but girls had to wear dresses/skirts. In winter my legs were freezing. Not fair. School shoes, knee high white socks, skirt, shirt, tie, and itchy woolen jumper were all mandatory. I think towards the end of my time there they started making school uniform pants for girls... finally. |
When I left school last year I could basically wear whatever I wanted as long as it was black, they tried to impose only white shirt colours, but I always went between blue and white. After I left they got stricter and tried to make the school something that it isn't, I live in a kinda rough area and they started making the children wear blazers and skirts now, 1. blazers are ****ing ugly, 2. we stay in ****ing scotland, why would I wear a skirt in the dead of winter in a notoriously rainy, cold country? Idiots.
