Sexist/Stereotype?

[Emotes]

Why is it that girls can wear earings at school but guys can't?

I'm sick of how us guys can't have our ears pierced. We can but we have to take out our studs or whatever when its a school day. I think its totally stupid.. Why does the school have to care about how we look. Where there to learn and work.

I think its silly and should be the same for boys and girls ... but they may think this because boys can be more rough, but this can also be said about some girls being rough.
Girls also wear big, loopy earrings which means they can be caught easily more than a stud that boys prefer to wear.

Overall boys & girls should be treated fairly within school.

so is the the techers being sexist or the students being stereotypes or both lol

either way it is bad, but if it just stereotypes you should just do whatever despite what people say i don't see why you should 'restrict' yourself

I am just going to do it don't you worry about that..
I'm probably moving schools soon anyways... Probably going to a public school instead of a private. Hopefully they won't be as strict with everything..

I have to say that you guys have it rough in the UK.

Over here in the US (at least where I went to school), it didn't matter if guys had piercings. In fact, I've seen some guys with more piercings than girls. The only catch was that it couldn't be any form of body piercing that was visible.

I actually live in Australia but yeah, US is lucky

woah, in my school both boys&girls can wear earrings, thats really not fair to boys in your school, sometimes school makes some really stupid rules. :/

I live in the UK and far as I know boys and girls are allowed to wear earrings at school - it may be different for a Catholic school as they are far too strict.

But I'm not sexist, boys and girls should be equal.
That's like saying boys are allowed to wear trousers and girls have to wear skirts, girls should be allowed to wear trousers.
