I feel like anyone would freak out in the most incredible way if they had their freedom of choice and autonomy suddenly stripped away.
Uniforms aren't part of the culture in US public education. There's also conflicting studies on whether uniforms even make a difference so it's not like there's a clear argument for them.
Also, while uniforms aren't standard in public schools there is typically a dress code students are expected to follow.
See what I mean????
I don't. Please explain it.
Wearing a uniform = having your freedom of choice and autonomy taken away.
You're delusional bruh
Please don't engage in a straw man argument. I specifically said "if they had their freedom of choice and autonomy suddenly stripped away".
Uniforms aren't part of the culture for the majority of students in the US. If that switched overnight then yes, they would reasonably "freak out".
Your generalized statement is "delusional". There are plenty of private schools in the US that require uniforms, numerous jobs that require a specific uniform, and pretty much all businesses have a dress code.
So yes, going from a standard where no uniform is required in a school to having to wear one, especially if it was mandated without warning or input from those it affects would constitute "having your freedom of choice and autonomy taken away".
So you're saying kids who go to a school with uniforms have the freedom to choose their clothes?
See how far your delusions of thinking you can wear whatever you want get you by catching a train naked. We all have uniforms. Freedom to choose your clothes is a fucking stupid take on uniform policy. Why don't you use your freedom of movement and touch some grass.
