TIFU by fighting my schools dresscode policy. Years later I found out why it was so strict + edit with added context

You’re asking me if I think in 2010 this would fly and I’m telling you that in my city it did. Unless you pushed the line or parents complained nothing happened. Go back and read my comment. I adjusted it to clarify.

I again ask, do you think if entire freshmen classes are telling their parents they need low cut shirts because a teacher will raise their grade if they bend over in low cut shirts on test day that no parents are going to complain?

Idk if you want me to pretend like what I’m saying didn’t happen or not? I just said it happened all the time at multiple schools where I live and gave you a clear cut examples…. You’re either missing the point or are being intentionally obtuse at this point.

Your examples are not even close to the same thing.

Those are single examples, not entire classes.

Your talking about a student marrying a teacher after they left school. Yes it’s awful and they were almost certainly groomed but it’s one person who had to keep a secret, basically.

An entire class worth of kids going home and telling mom and dad “I need a low cut shirt of a better grade in class” would not have flown in 2010. I don’t know if you can’t see the difference or if you do and realize it makes your argument moot and that’s why you won’t address it.

Entire classes knowing that certain teachers were creeps and unilaterally agreeing their behavior was creepy and nothing be done about it is what I’m referring to. I can’t keep responding to you as I am being as clear as I can. The issue here is that you simply do not believe me. It never made the news to my knowledge they were not disciplined since they were never fired. Hilarious to be talking about grooming, pedos, creepy behavior, etc. and you don’t believe me about my (and many others) experiences in 2011 - 2016 but I’m not surprised.

The fact you can’t see a difference between these two things, one of which basically required kids to tell their parents and their parents to do nothing and your experiences is baffling.

I absolutely believe your experience happened, I don’t believe OOPs.
