I would bet that was also considered. Its much easier to say its one thing then saying "yo them titties wild".

I'm going to spend the rest of the day saying "Yo them titties wild".
It just feels right saying it.

My problem wrt these types of situations is how the root cause of the problem doesn't get addressed. Women confirming to a certain dress code so the boys don't get unruly just continues to norm of sexualizing women and putting the onus on the men to maintain composure in a general public scenario.
It's not about unruliness. It's about focus. Focus. Actually the main problem is that there are people using terms like "sexualizing women" and "objectification." It's deliberately obscure bs / doublespeak. All it does is get irrational sjws and females into a tizzy.

You wanna split hairs over the word unruly and focus? As a teenager, it meant the same thing to me. Making girls or women conform to some sort of dress code such as the OP is not addressing the actual problem.

Needless to say, you're talking nonsense. You're talking nonsense. "Objectification" only exists at the local campus and in feminist literature. The problem is focus and human nature.

Lined/padded bras weren't even a thing until the late 90s, unlined bras do almost nothing for hard nipples.

In my day, "padded bras" meant some girl stuffed her bra to make it look like she had bigger boobs.
Nipple sightings just meant that someone was obligated to say that someones high beams were on.

Negative, the problem us letting boys dictate girls dress code with their behavior.

It is literally the opposite of both obscure and doublespeak. It is actually descriptive and precise. It literally is sexualizing and objectifying. As in it is treating women as sexual objects. Why do they want the nipples covered? Do you believe it is because they are afraid of milk spillage, or because they are cold, or because they will catch them on something? No. It is because they are looking at women as sexual objects that men desire and are wanting to limit that.

Focus and behavior aren't identical by any means. Behavior such as wearing provocative clothing can influence negatively the impact of the teacher. The less dynamic and enthusiastic the teacher is, the less sexiness can be tolerated. Unfortunately what we have here is that teachers are becoming even more terrible, while (evidently) the girls are becoming hotter and hotter.

Double standard. If you can compliment a woman on her hair or eyes then nipples shouldn't be out of bounds. If they are, there you go, they'll need to be bandaided.

The alternative is that if you can see it and think about it, freedom of speech and all you should be able to talk about it as long as it isn't harassment, which it isn't if held to the same standards as a compliment about other physical attributes. If you want sexual repression in society it has to be consistent so young unevolved childrens' minds can make a distinction between what is and isn't appropriate.

Care to expand on this statement?
I don't usually like giving straight answers, but everyone else is an object to everyone else. We're also subjects, sometimes good ones, but this one isn't. At least there's no mention of Russia. Refreshing thread.

Women are sexual objects. Women are many things. Just because something is, does not mean you get to force your will upon that thing. You don't get to drive my car, and I don't get to touch your body. We are both allowed to enjoy things visually though.

You are making the same argument that people whom want to ban porn make. It is degrading because you are just objectifying women.

Everyone is an object to you? That might explain a lot of your posts.

So you want student age girls to drive the dress code instead? No thanks, I think the current system of letting professional grown-ups determine standardized dress codes in advance which can be applied in an even-handed way. If girls want to argue for a change to the dress code (including something like removing the requirement to wear a bra or any other article of the code) they can petition the school board or whoever makes the rules for this change. An important lessons that kids learn in school is they are subject to rules they might not understand or appreciate and they need to obey them anyway or use the existing systems in place to change them instead of just being a law unto themselves (a.k.a. learn how citizens behave in democratic society).

Classic example. In this case those people are subjects, and whom is accusative, meant for objects. It should be who here. He literally just objectified those people, yet it's a silly thing to point out.

I'm not making that argument. I'm arguing that calling it objectification or sexualizing is neither obscuring nor doublespeak. It simply does not fit the definition of either of those words.

Negative, focus and behavior are related. Will boys not be expected to wear bras when their nipples are showing?

The boys who choose to make a big deal about the nipples should removed from the class room and discuss with the appropriate school personnel why objectification and sexualization of girls based on anatomy that belongs to 100% of the population is foolish and not proper conduct on school property.
