School Uniforms

[nekosync]

Do you have to wear a school uniform? What do you think about it? Discuss school uniforms here.

I hate my uniform. It's frumpy and makes me look chunky af. I look like a tree on the top half and a twig on the bottom half.

I sweat a lot in the uniform, and they won't let us take off the stupid blazer. It looks like this, minus the emblem on the chest: http://lewebpedagogique.com/chatterbox/files/2011/08/School-uniforms-in-the-UK1.jpg

I don't see why they won't let me dress myself. It's not like I'm gonna wear booty shorts or anything like that. >: And if anyone wanted to do that, they could just enforce a dress code.

My schools frees code is tank tops and booty shorts.

I had a school uniform. At first I hated it, but preferred it a lot later. I don't have to care about what outfit I'll be wearing the next day and what not.

There were always ways girls and boys would alter it to look more "appealing" but what's there to do with black pants, a white/black polo uniform shirt.

I used to have a school uniform until I graduated high school. Now I'm in college, no more uniform for me. I really like it that way because I feel more free now rather than that jailed feeling I had back in high school.

I used to wear a school uniform (not at school any more) and I absolutely despised it. It made me look about 10 kg heavier than I really was. It was just super fug and, despite being really expensive, was made of seriously cheap material. The jumper always used to scratch at my arms whenever I wore it. I'm amazed I wore it for so many years and didn't set fire to it.

Anyway weirdly enough now my dress sense somewhat resembles a school uniform. I'm always in an oversized jumper, black tights and a (rather short tbh) plaid skirt with creepers, which kinda look like school shoes from a distance. Of course my clothes are waaay better quality and don't make me look awkward and chubby. At least I hope not. People often mistake me as a school girl from the back. They I turn around and they're like 'oh'.

I am so glad my school had a school uniform. I was not the most fashionable kid and I think it saved me a lot of teasing.

 

[MisterEnigma]

No uniform. I'm glad, because most uniforms I've seen for girls include skirts, and I dislike differences in uniform based on gender. It's pointless.

Your school uniform sounds exactly like mine!

I have a school uniform. To be honest, I don't think I'd want to go to school in my own clothes knowing all the fuss I'd make in the morning. I'd probably have countless late marks because of it.

Recently our uniform was changed because the 'rival school' changed theirs. They had a complete makeover of the uniform, with disgusting green blazers and yellow/green striped ties. Makes me glad I don't go there. Then our school chose to change ours too, except the only thing they changed was the tie pattern and the badge. Very pointless.

I have a unifrom neutral about it

I actually really loved my school uniform.

The color schemes worked well (blue/black) and the jumpers were rly warm and comfortable <3

the skirts looked really nice too

only bad thing was that the shorts were a generic gray color... would've looked better if they were navy blue instead (would've fitted the color scheme better), tbh i think they actually changed them to navy blue after i graduated lol

 

[Earth Wolf-Howl]

Yes, I have to wear one, and I hate it- though mostly for the skirt and blazer. If I could wear trousers, on the other hand, and something more comfortable than a blazer, I wouldn't mind it too much, though.

 

[SockMonster]

I would hate having to wear a uniform
I don't do skirts. Ever. And I love wearing colorful knee and up high socks, so trading my sock collection for two pairs of plain stockings or whatever would be horrible. :|
That and I do a lot of artsy stuff and I'm messy, so I'd probably ruin my uniform frequently ^^;

I left school five years ago. I hated wearing a uniform and, for the most part, I tended not to! It was:

• A black jumper or cardigan. I wore a hoodie.
• White shirt. I got scolded at least once a week (usually at assembly) for wearing a blouse rather than a proper shirt. Heh.
• Red and black striped tie Yr 1-5.* Red tie with school logo for Yr 6.**
• Black trousers or skirt. I wore either black jeans or a miniskirt.
• Black shoes. I wore boots.

*age 11/12 - 16/17
** age 17/18

They've tightened up on the rules since I left. They replaced jumper/cardigan with a blazer, apparently they've changed the ties for the senior students (Yr 5-6), and they're just generally more strict with enforcing the uniform than they were when I was there.

I quite like dressing smart, so I enjoyed wearing my uniform

 

[oranje]

Thank goodness my middle school and high school didn't have school uniforms. But a few years after I graduated, my middle school implemented a mandatory uniform policy. Those uniforms were pretty ugly so I'm lucky that I escaped. :')

 

[Solar]

No uniforms for me! I'm really happy too, I love getting to wear T-Shirts, flannels, and hoodies eveyday. Sometimes I don't even try and wear sweatpants and a T-shirt. So comfy <3

 

[MayorSaki]

Nope. I'm actually a bit sad about it, cause it would be cool that everyone would wear the same uniform and no one would be able to diss your clothes at school. On the other hand I like wearing my own clothes at school

Oh, no, they would still diss you! They'd instead diss the way you wore it and any accessories you wore. In both high schools I went to (one in Scotland, the other in England), they actually dissed you more if you stuck to how the teachers intended you wear it!

Not much dissing goes on at my school, at least to people's faces, heh.
