Aside from the obvious curtailing of personal expression and potential violation of federal law, these dress codes also reinforce dangerous stereotypes to the detriment of students. Dictating that young women change their appearance because they are “distracting” men inherently objectifies them, and it teaches girls to be ashamed of their bodies. Moreover, it sends the wrong message to boys: It tells them that they cannot control themselves or their desires; what’s worse, it also tells them that their inability to respect others is acceptable.
