That first picture was Kagura, actually. Sakaki is plenty photogenic.

But at least you're on the right track for school uniforms

Damn, I've seen/read so little AD that I still get confused.

But the uniforms are definitely good. Hontouni kawaii.

Expressing yourself through clothes is just too easy - any fool can buy clothes.

Kids need to be taught to express themselves through the things they think and say, and removing the option of easy, lazy rebellion by looking weird is the first step.

And to hijack even further, here's a link to the best Asuka model ever made. The guy who painted it is simply a god with his airbrush.
On a related note, I just ordered myself a 1/8 scale Chii.

I haven't actually thought through the consequences of applying extreme moral pressure on a population of 2 million school children to not conform and be completely different from the other 1,999,999 or else, but I'm sure it will be fine.

For the first two classes of primary school I think.
After that they abolished it.
They were blue with white collars, of course

When Greece was poor (I mean really poor) after WW2 and the civil war, children sometimes didn't even have shoes to wear. Let along "fansy clothes", more like what their moms could fabricate from rags (a zoferi icona yes but is real)

So a sideffect? of what the uniforms actually did was to create an err uniformity for lack of another word in my english.

Rich, poor, whatever would come to class as equals, be treated like equals and learn like equals.

That was the only good thing I can think of about the past uniform code in Greece.

After the poverty passed they stated on for some more decades untill they were abolished.

I dont see any reason why they shouldnt be abolished

Boris: where in that last post do you make any case whatsoever for school uniforms? You reduce your entire reasoning to "I think there is a reasonable case to be made for uniforms improving the educational environment." and the meat of your post is basically saying "school rules must be obeyed". I agree with you: school rules should be obeyed, and nowhere did I say that kids were justified in starting a teenage revolution. However, I do not think that the law should be implemented in the first place. There are many things students can do to help get rid of such a policy or prevent it from occurring: petitions, fundraisers, etc.
Could you please adress my fundamental reasons for a lack of school uniforms instead of simply saying "this is the way it is ho hum hum"???

Jaako,

I like girls in school girl uniform.. especially asuka. her personality and style reminds me too much of one of my ex that I should have never ended...

anyway, you dont see too many skirt these days. Whether they're long or not, I think skirts are sexy. school uniform would mean lot more girls will be wearing skirts. Thats gotta be so good that I almost forgot what was the bad side of having a uniform was....

I hate seeing girls in school uniform, I'm too old to be ogling teenagers now.

As for uniforms in public schools I have yet to see any arguments for it enhancing the educational experience that would justify it. If a district voted it in they would have to have an adequate reason for placing an added expense on family budgets.

Personally, I might have preferred it because I spent most of my school years trying to perfect the art of not being noticed. I succeeded pretty well I might add, though uniforms would have made it much easier or maybe not. I have bright red hair and am thin and tall so those differences might have stood out more. who knows.

Yea I went to Catholic school so everybody had to wear uniforms. Guys had to wear a polo shirt and khaki pants in the summer and a pair of grey slacks, tie, and sweater in the winter. The girls wore skirts, skirts that were very very very short, and a blouse. Uniforms really sucked but the skirts made me appriciate a good pair of legs.

I also routinely broke the dress code to be a super dope cool rebel. I once went a semster without a hair cut and routinely went with out shaving for days.

Never had to wear school uniform. I don't even know anyone who had to wear one... in fact, (I'm not sure but IIRC...) I think all kinds of school uniforms / strict dressing codes are illegal in Finland. Which is good. I'm not sure about private schools though. Although very very very few kids go to private schools here, since the level of public education is so high anyway.
