In order for bullying to stop, the environment must be absolutely toxic to them. If they tease someone for how they dress, the only solution is to encourage that sort of dress in all of the students, as a show of solidarity against the bully. By banning it, you only validate the bully's world view, showing him or her that their "heart was in the right place," but that their methods were lacking. "Don't use violence, use regulation!" |

How long will this take? My guess is that most guys wouldn't feel comfortable dressing in a skirt (or whatever). I don't see this becoming the norm anytime soon. So the administration can encourage this as much as it wants, but until the bully actually feels like he/she is in the minority, nothing will change. In the meantime, bullies will continue to beat up kids.
But, I agree, things should change. (By the way, this is what I believed the whole time. I was just pointing out the safety issues. Also, your previous post was unnecessarily offensive in somehow suggesting that I somehow blame the victims, and I'd ask that in the future you try to get a complete understanding of someone's views before attacking them Thanks in advance!)
