I agree with this. It takes a pioneer to help something become more accepted, and I feel younger people are becoming more tolerant in this regard. That's not to say boys would not be bullied for wearing a skirt, but the shame should never be put on them if it's their decision.

I hate that the world is like that and people, generally, suck. But that's the reality. People are not nice generally. Unless you're living in some kind of alternative universe where everyone's nice all the time and all the rules are in place and upheld.

On a hot day it probably would be good to wear a Kil... I mean Skirt.

But in all seriousness yeah it's good to allow the option to be there for boys, but overall some of the "cool" kids will take the piss out of any boys that wear skirts, that's why boys should be allowed to wear the male form... shorts.

Piers Morgan reveals that he is against this, but also reveals that he is "gender-neutral-phobic"
This school uniform policy change couldn't come soon enough in my opinion. This type of mindset needs to be wiped out.

What kind of mind-set?
