The justification for all of that is so it doesn’t distract people from learning. Obviously, they mean boys. So, according to school systems nationwide, girls should be taken out of class, or sent home, and miss learning, so that boys can focus.

My daughter is getting the message loud and clear that her education is secondary to that of boys, and that her body exists solely as a sexual object."

A counselor told her she wouldn’t be able to go back to class unless she put on a sweater. James said staff pointed out that her bra was showing, and told her that her clothes were too revealing and distracting."
