Short skirts, knee-high socks, white blouses: Girls' school uniform items are widely used as costumes in pornographic videos. As students experience harassment, a group wants to change that.
Uniforms are good because it stops the whole “fashion clique” bullshit. Or at least MASIVELY curbs it.
And I say that as someone that has spent time in the US public/free/commoner schools AND the UK public/free/commoner schools.
School uniforms are a good thing.
But “girls wear dresses” is the strange thing.
It should be “dresses, shorts or trousers” with generic specifications for these (so no hot pants or yoga pants kinda idea). Same for the shirts, shoes, socks, tie.
And school uniforms are obviously an underage thing. There might be 18 year olds still in high/secondary school, but that is a FRACTION compared to the underage people that have to wear school uniforms.
I’m for the ban. It makes sense.
Very interesting topic. Very astute observation, amazing organisation, and a fantastic debate to have.
I think some sort of middle ground has to be reached. Define what the UK school uniform actually is (and make it open and accepting, review it often). And ban the whole “schoolgirl skirt” aesthetic in porn (black shoes, white/black socks, grey/black skirt, white collared shirt).
I don’t think governments have anything between illegal and legal. So they have to make it illegal and decide/hint/inform/decree/whatever how much it is pursued and prosecuted… which is how they greyscale it.
There IS a “schoolgirl aesthetic”. You know it when you see it.
“School disco” is a common theme night at student clubs.
What an interesting debate.
I’m all for it: “school uniform” is primarily an underage thing.
The current youth has raised this as a national (international?) debate, and they should be rewarded.
I have no issues with this kind of porn being illegal, it will still be accessible for those that want/need it (everything is always accessible on the internet).
Yeh, it’s just that the UK has all sorts of different types of schools ( https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/37696598 ).
I don’t really know/remember if the US has a bunch of different types of schools

The US has public, home-schooling and private schools. There are no “commoners” in the US.
