Court challenges to dress codes have centered on the abridgment of student free speech rights. However, a new challenge has surfaced that is not necessarily rooted in free speech rights. Are dress codes discriminating against female students by singling them out for additional scrutiny based on "gendered"expression? An exploratory study of 25 New Hampshire school district policies found that there were 51 provisions specific to female student attire and 7 male specific provisions. The gendered restrictions are in large part based on the argument that if female students wear these clothes that the boys will be distracted from their studies.
Certainly what I said Dr. ... So if we return to the Islamic religion, we find that it emphasizes the hijab of women, that is, not to reveal the nakedness (all women naked), so that the man stops chasing.
This applies to all women, regardless of their social status, whether students or employees.
Merah, thanks for your response. I had not thought of the issue of the varying influence of religion on the adoption of dress codes in schools.
