"Omg it's harmless fun... back to school nights are always a popular dress up night at clubs " Exactly this my mini tartan skirt showing of knickers, white stockings, stiletto shoes, crop top, slut make-up, etc. is very popular amongst consenting adults...! obviously never encouraging others and or suggesting that anything underage is ok because it’s most definitely not ok to be engaging with anyone underage... | |||

"https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/its-not-sexy-students-demand-24194255 Thoughts Save us opening on a link why don’t you post the content or a summary? "A group of schoolgirls and their teacher have launched a campaign demanding school uniforms stop being sold in sex shops and banned from pornography.

They are calling for the government to make it illegal for the costumes to be displayed and sold within sex shops to 'stop the sexualisation of children."" --------------------- ---An element of the schoolgirls were fed up of being personally harassed by wolf whistlers etc, probably as if they were young adults out on a hen night. Simply because they are in their school uniform (and hence likely under 16). It's worth saying that despite DNA evidence, reported incidences of repe and abuse are incredibly high, and for a number of reasons only a tiny fraction are dealt with. Obviously, it's a huge step to attempt to make something of this nature 'illegal'.. but I expect that the teacher(s) is basically engaging with the class and highlighting a serious issue here. The kids themselves are just being kids and won't understand the seriousness of legality yet (hey it's not me who advocates voting at 16). But they do have a point. There is no doubt that kids are being more and more sexualised by a society that was supposed to be going the other way. Online porn where young women are being treated roughly and uploaded against their will has almost become a norm too (re the huge pornhub complicity lawsuit), as has being slapped and chked during sex for some young people too: deaths are becoming far too common in this area now (a big thing for me as I'm into SM). Society is pretty-much unable to prevent access to this kind of stuff, it's as simple as that. Which is a problem. I'm the last person in the world to want kinkiness effectively made illegal (just glance at my profile), but I'm right behind these girls in what is clearly an awareness campaign, lets be honest. --pt | |||

"Am I right in thinking that "the sexy schoolgirl" outfit is nothing more than a micro tartan skirt and a tie-up white blouse sort of thing? What the hell school has that, or has ever had that, as an actual uniform? The myriad Chinese manufacturers who make these, might, if you ask them nicely, change the name to something else and then it would have no link to a schoolgirl uniform as it looks nothing like one. And bloody good luck to them trying to get Eastern European smut pedlars to stop making "schoolgirl" porn." --You'd be largely right, but there's clearly a principle/message thing going on here. When I was a kid in the 70's I remember nurses demonstrating on St Mary's Street in Cardiff asking for broadly the same thing. The listed Prince of Wales building in the heart of the city used to be a porno theatre back then! Nothing changed in terms of the law, but it was good publicity and it did highlight a lot. --pt | |||

"You know what I’d end up doing if I can’t get a sexy schoolgirl outfit? Buying an actual school uniform. Let’s apply some logic here. " Haha - yes its easy enough to put together a uniform - And if it's specifically sexy outfits are non sexy ones ok!? | |||

"On the scale of sexualisation of children I just don't see this as being high up the list of priorities. Kids being on tic tok with access to onlyfans adverts essentially or kink toc. Access to pornography at an age where they may not be able to process the difference between that and actual sex within a relationship. The constant drive at the moment to push kids into being mini adults as teens all these things worry more as a parent than an outfit worn to a school disco night. " Absolutely this | |||

"When you see seven year old girls wearing crop tops with the word sexy emblazoned across the front you come to realise that there are far more important matters to deal with than the sexualisation of school uniforms. Furthermore, none of the school uniforms i've ever seen for sale in shops or online for use in the fetish bear any resemblance to the real thing. People can tell the difference. " Bought by parents because they think it looks 'cute' and most likely without the child even being aware of what the word means. What the fuck are they thinking? Someone should have a word.

I can't see how this is a 'blame culture' thing at all, ie laying the blame for moronic cat-calling of teens "at the feet of" fetishism and thus calling to 'ban' the kink - it's not about that at all. The schoolgirls are asking for some kind of legislation over the way young people are often marketed, not asking for a ban on the fetish itself. It's absolutely-nothing to do with how 'close' any two uniforms they look! That won't matter all!! The kinky outfits with their sexy pictures are obviously exaggerated and over-sexualised. But that's the point! Many of these sexy school uniforms sold under plastic give a bad social message FULL STOP - and it's the social message they want to change. That this is 'normal'. All this sexualisation of kids you refer too, it all adds up. And many men (old and young too now of course) continue to call it "harmless fun". Adults can still buy the real thing somewhere and pretend they are kids again, that 'non-normal' (by definition) 'kinkiness' is simply a different thing! Buying a "sexy girl" miniskirt or boob-tube designed for 10 year olds is part of the same problem - you don't need to say oh but other things are far worse! The girls would say we need to look at it all. It's all about what-and-how we package in shops, and the image that society gives in general. Fab is proof that many men refuse to get the message. Their "harmless fun" line is only ever about themselves. But it's always all about themselves. ----pt | |||

Better to have thought about it properly. They obviously feel very passionately about it, but I feel its more education and attitudes that need changing rather than more laws to prevent something which is already against the law. | |||

They are highlighting one simple thing that can be looked at to help a wider problem. Do you know how rare suggesting anything is these days? It's something I broadly agree with too. How can the problem of school girls being sexualised by passing men (who are more-than likely to young men) be 'actually caused' by children dressed as sexualised adults? ie the 'kiddy hotpants' thing, which we all agree is wrong? That just doesn't make any sense at all! You are simply conflating two different issues here surely? And very uncomfortably, you seem to be suggesting that the problem actually lies with the girls in some way, not with the guys - though you concede that they are under social pressure to look sexy. But it's entirely the problem of the catcalling young men isn't it? They need to be shown that the sexualisation of young women is NOT a normative thing in society at all. The shoolgirls are simply just wearing their uniform. Leading on from from this is actually the connected issue of whether skirts are necessary in modern school uniforms, and though I'd agree that they are not, I'd doubt it would change the issue of catcalling that much at all. And that is because it's NOT about the uniform as much as it's about young men thinking it's OK in today's society to see even younger girls as sex objects. These packaged costumes are simply one thing that help give them that general impression. --pt | |||

"As I intimated in a post above - what they sell in sex shops bears no resemblance to any real school uniform I've ever seen. If it does, the school in question should be taken to task. Banning any kind of clothing doesn't sit right with me, it takes away our choice of what we can wear. Banning the burka is along these same lines. If the clothing currently on sale was re-branded "sexy Scottish secretary", I doubt anyone but porn film makers would equate it to an actual school uniform. Getting porno makers to stop calling a micro tartan skirt and white blouse a school uniform I feel is a battle no-one will ever win." ---As someone responded to you, it's about the principle! It doesn't make any difference that those bagged-up Japanese/tartan/Britney/Trinians outfits look like modern uniforms at all! It's the fact they make it appear a normative thing to sexualise schoolgirls who are simply wearing a uniform by law and are getting wolf whistled by young men for it. --pt | |||

"Probably get shot down here but.... Is it OK to sexualise children? NO I hear most of you shout Is it OK to have sex with a schoolgirl? Again I hear a NO from most - and of course it's against the law Is it OK to have sex with a consenting adult? YES I hear from you all this time So are you commiting an offence having sex with a consenting adult dressed as a schoolgirl? No However, you are imagining that adult to be a schoolgirl. So I ask you this, is this morally right? And is it therefore perpetuating the sexualisation of schoolgirls (children)? I would argue that, the adult dressed as the said schoolgirl,is indulging in a fantasy that is not harmful. It's something that they want for themselves and not something they want to do to someone else. Just my view and I'm sure others will have a different view. I think the girls have a valid reason to ask for this to be debated. There is a similar argument in regard to the sexualisation of nurses too,but the consequences are far more serious I would suggest within the context of this thread " ---I still don't see where the schoolgirls have asked for such private fantasies to be debated though? It's about sex shops and pornography isn't it? Surely it's always been common for older adults to want to re-live, or fantasise about younger days during sex. It's partly a way of dealing with age imo. And of course too, people can easily put together a schoolgirl look - they don't really need these socially-normalising pre-packeted costumes at all. --pt | |||
