According to a gender studies professor at the University of Utah, as children grow into young adults, the increased autonomy for how they want to present themselves through what they wear becomes central to how they perceive themselves.
Ana Carolina Antunes says, among other points, that strict standards for dress often point to a lack of trust that adults have in teens.
Their concerns drew widespread attention after they protested the dress rules for being sexist — prompting a letter from the school’s leadership and another letter from a teacher calling them a “mob.” “If someone has bigger breasts or wider hips, of course clothes are going to fall different on them,” she said. “… But we are blaming folks for wearing clothes when in reality the issue is how people are seeing the clothes on their bodies.”
