i have been having some problems at school. with the dress code and stuff.

the other day i was wearing a black shirt with julius the monkey breaking a guitar on it to school, and i got called to the principles office, and was told that it was a VERY innapropriate shirt becasue it will be giving people ideas of vandalism and its black. and i asked her (the principal) "its black, so?" and she said if you wear a black shirt, you are gothic. she labeld me. wt f? oh and i got an hour worth of detention, just for wearing a black shirt.

and another time i was wearing a wristband that had the blink182 smiley on it. and the principal said it promotes "ganster" stuff. ha ha. she says that i must belong to some gang. i said, no. but she insisted that i did belong to some kind of gang.

i was also wearing shorts that says dance on the butt for p.e., and i got detention for that because it was "innapropriate" i asked the principal why and she said that shorts saying dance on the butt are promoting sex. i wonder, how do those promote sex?!?!?!

now we have a new dress code rule (well its not official but its an idea thats up in the air) that we can not wear all black clothes because you will be "gothic", we cant wear wristbands or head bands because they are "gangster-like", we cant wear skirts because they make a girl look "cheap".... and so on.

what do you guys think of that? i mean, just because i wear certain stuff it doesnt mean i belong to a certain group or belive in something.. am i correct?

i think some teachers are just sooooo wiered.

and i think i have the right to wear what i want to wear... and not be labeled..... right?

i need some opinions...

if that was me, i wooda *&^*^%& the teacher up and told the principal to go to hell. at least our school has no problem with gothics and wristbands... jeez

omg. ur principal is so retarded!! i hav tons of black shirts, so what? haha. doesnt mean any is gothic if they wear a black shirt. thats retarded!!

Either you made that up, or your principal needs to be shot.

i wouldnt stay at that skool any longer. it sucks

our dress code isnt that bad. if we lift our arms up and the shirt reveals your belly button then you have to go change., straps have to be at least two inches. thats basically it. and even if you get dress coded you just have to go get a big t-shirt from the office. none of that detention stuff.

wow that's horrible that your principal labeled you and gave you detention for retarded reasons...you should just get your mom or dad to call up the school and ask them what's going on
Steph

Wow, that is so messed up. Like, out school dress code is hardly bad at all, I think that people shuld be able to wear what they want to wear as long as its not um revealing *too* much.. I don't wanna see anyones ass or chest - and neither do a lot of people. I would suggest making a protest... but then you might get more detentions and your principal might make up this lame lecture about it. Why not make a petition? And there is always freedom of speech, so why not explain to your principal your output on it.

I don't know... I don't think I'd have the guts to do those things though haha.

that is retarded. there's no reason why people should be banned from wearing what makes them who they are. everyone has their own types of styles .. your parents pay good ass taxes for you to go to school not be in detention for ridiculous non-sense like that. and those explanations your principal gave are stupid .. he/she is an absolutely ignorant moron!! .. if dress code and such were necessary and they feel that strongly about it make the f*cking principal move to a private school where he/she are entitled to enforce a code. i`d continue to wear what i like .. i see no reason why i shouldn`t be able to express my own style.

wow, that's really stupid. eh, i don't think my school has a dress code.

omg?! what kind of school do you go to? Stupid schools are all conspiracy why do we even go?? ehh my schools dumb we can't wear hats cause kids use to hide drugs like weed under them haha

omg that suks. geeze if i were u id make a complaint with a bunch of other students.

WTF??? And here I thought my dress code was messed up.. and that is completly wrong for the princapal to lable students like that..

u cant wear black cuz its gothic? what if i AM gothic and wear black?

omg... i wud whoop dat principle's azz, lolz. well anyway, i wear black ALL THE TIME!!! i mean, its my fav color after all. wtf is wrong wit dat?!?! n wristbands n headbands, hey, just cuz u wear 'em duznt need ur a gansta. n lemme just say "wtf is ur prob not letting me wear dese clothes?!" lolz, at least my skool isnt as tuff, dey just want u to have shirts dat fit (not too small) and straps one inch wide at da least n if u break dat rule, u just have to wear ur p.e. uniform. no detention crap

your skool sux. if it were me i'd go off on the principal. just cuz u wore a black shirt omg that was stupied. i can't believe they labled u. ur principal is sooo stupied. geez if it were me i'd be out that skool the first time it happned

your principal must hate you

WOAH! thats horrible! damn!

does your principal have some kinda mental problems? She's retarded. Wearing black isn't against the law, is it?

i have same experience...what i did was bitch n bitch everytime i got sent in...after a while i was just like..you kno what f*** this and gave up...a week later i got pissed off cause i got called it for wearing a "philly" shirt and i got claled a gangsturr...lols...anyway what i did was i started a rebellion thinggy...me n like 10 other students went on strike, we had a lot of parents supporting us on the dress code cause it makes no sense to label ppl especially when your that high in power...

if your skirt is your longer than your arm..you're not allowed to wear it. no head bands. no shirts or any type of clothing that has to do with gangs. not allowed to wear tube tops, no tight clothing, etc.

blah..my school had a packet of rules for me and it was 3 pages !!

wow haha at my school we got a new dress code but we ppl still wear tube tops and pants that say KISS THIS instead of dance. haha i wonder what it'd be like if your principal was at our school? =\ we also have a lot of punks lol~ mohawks dyed in 4 different colours we also have a lotta guys wearing cheap metal around their necks all i can say guys... if you're not rich don't buy cheap rip offs

haha aznbabiicutie we had that no short skirt rule. but we all still wear them. i'm lucky that my principal is super fair haha~

WTF.... If they came to my school then they might as well just place everyone in uniforms. Everyone has some for bottoms clothes that have writing on the butt part (like Dance, LifeGaurd, Cheerleader, ...)!

I have a friend that wore pretty much all black and her stockings were vlack and white stripes. But I dunno if black pople wearing black is considered "gothic" or whatnot. And gangster-like?!?!? I'm serious that lady would have a heart attack in a split second!

girls at my school are in the mood to match their shirt with their shoes. I'm ok with it until their shirt's are colorfully striped and so are the shoes

I dont even think our school has a dress code. I mean everyone just wears what they want. Im shoked you cant even wear a black tshirt! I say you talk to a parent or someone about that. Hmm I say get all the kids together and have blacktshirt day. I wonder what the principal would say about that!

its ok my school has one too, no short shorts no tank tops tanks. must wear someting that passes the shoulders and pass the knee caps and shirts from fcuk tm are prohibited... but no one gives lol

thats just so stupid. WEARING BLACK DOESNT MEAN YOUR GOTHIC

you got some funky school no offence. By law you have to cover parts up but you do have a choice about what you wear. Damn it Adam and Eve you killed it for us.

fuk ur skool is like retarded! thats stoopid labeling what u wear and stuff. if i was u i would like !#!@$!@$ !@#!@ &*%^ #$#$@# tha !#@$%^#$ gay as @!#&^$% %$#$# teacher....black i wear black so shes gonna say tat people who wear black at a funeral are all gothic? watta dumb ass

my skool doesnt really care bout those kinda stuff...we have 2 wear this green uniform and stuff and if we wear it incorrect we get this green slip and we gotto copy out all this crap and stuff so yah.....

Where the hell do you live sweetie???

I can understand certain things, but all that is just stupid. Your school rules are ridiculous.

agreed, i mean look at angel, i mean she is wearing like all black in her sig, if what u say is true she would be kicked out the first day

^^ But i don't think they'd label me as gothic if i were wearing this black dressy shirt on my siggy, my miniskirt, and my stiletos (sp?)

Hmm.. maybe a cheap slutty goth??

you would be labeled somethin all right...


lol ^_^

btw, i have a black afro and i wear black, i think its unfair to say that black is just gothic, i like it cause it goes with how i look.

that's stupid! just because you wear black doesn't mean your gothic! not like it's against the law or anything. i'm pretty sure my school has a dress code too. not that anyone really listens or anything...

wow that stinks!! i feel bad for you....
but i have it easy i guess, we have a uniform.... nothing like a good old catholic all girls uniform.....
and the teachers are pretty relaxed about it, the only thing they get on your case about is wearing the wonrg shoes, but even with that they getting lazy...lol

jeez, if tht principal did tht to me with my black shirts and labelled me, id get my dad...

that is sooo not fair! i mean my school has dress codes but nothing THAT harsh! the teachers and principals are so stupid sometimes. they always assume we do bad stuff all the time. and those things are stereotypes. i mean just cuz u wear black doesn't mean ur gothic. i sometimes feel like the schools make up rules just for the sake of making rules, no matter how stupid they are

lol

hahaha ur princaple is a retard.... seriously wt.f??????

i was never called down to the princaples office for n e thing *cough*NERD PRIDE*cough*

..n e wayz... move to BC, CANADA

that's messed up...do u attend private schools or something? wow no black clothes... i dont think brie will survive O_O

WHAT?! thats so gay.... it's not possible to label me cause i wear everything.my school does have a dresscode..... but its strict too.. you cant wear sweaters to cover your innapropriate clothes.. and other stuff too

i think ur principal has it out fo u. if i were u, i wuld tell my parents or sumone about this cuz its just not rite.

she has not rite to label you, just cuz of the color clothing u wear. thats just a bunch of bullshiit

one day, if she's wearing black, b like hey ur gothic thats innaporpiate u fata$$!
just cuz she has no clue wuts going on, doesnt mean she cant stop the people who are

that is so stupid!! i wear all black all the time and no one yells at me for it!! (probably cuz they know i'll set my rabid ginuea pigs on them if they doo)

Uhm.
What the f*ck!?

Wow.
That's just.. retarded, in my opinion.

You got detention because you wore a black shirt?

I wear all black almost everyday..

Wow, that's just messed up.

Yes, you should be allowed to wear what you want, as long as it goes along with t3h dress code.

Your principle is a weenie. Protest.

teachers are stupid!!!!

i dun believe those teachers never wear black t-shirts...

omg that is so uncool! our principal is actually pretty cooled with what we wear... but i should say we have the right to wear whatever we want! CUZ WE HAVE THE FREEDOM TO DO SO! ur principal needs to be more... open

your teacher sux.....
tell her to fxxx off............... u should've argued with her about it...

er...do you go to a private school? cuz if u do..i thinkg the state can't do anything about it...but if not..
you should tell the chair..or board of education or w/e.
thats crap.
and whats wrong with being "goth"??? has she got ANY reason to be against htem? i dont see them doing anything wrong except for wearing black stuff. w.t.f.

Thats just....really stupid.
Its like they want you to hate them. They shouldnt be judging stupid stuff like that. :/ i'd get a big EFFIN transfer
