Student\u2019s viral TikTok exposes school\u2019s \u201csexist\u201d dress code during assembly TIKTOK: anastasiaskitsA 16-year-old student went viral on TikTok after exposing her school\u2019s \u201csexist\u201d dress code during assembly. The student called out administrators during an assembly while challenging the school\u2019s strict dress code, calling attention to the policy being unfairly enforced. In a viral video with over 5.7 million views, TikToker Anastasia shared a clip of her asking administrators to clarify their strict dress code. \u201cWhy is this school so persistent in telling girls to cover up when really guys should just keep it in their pants?\u201d she said. \u201cThis school is so headstrong on telling girls to cover their shoulders or stomach when those things are all pretty natural.\u201d She went on to explain that the dress code was \u201csexist,\u201d and observed that girls with a \u201cbigger cup size\u201d are dress-coded more often than those with smaller cup sizes, even if they are wearing the same shirt. \u201cI\u2019ve heard more girls with the bigger cup sizes get dress coded. It\u2019s completely sexist and biased and not OK,\u201d Anastasia stated. She captioned the video: \u201cOur bodies aren\u2019t distracting. You\u2019re just disgusting.\u201d In a follow-up clip, the student shared a male administrator\u2019s response to her argument, in which he stated that he\u2019s just \u201cenforcing a policy\u201d that\u2019s in the handbook. \u201cIt\u2019s not the way we\u2019re looking at that, but we\u2019re just following whatever we want to do,\u201d he said. \u201cMajority of the people do get it, but there\u2019s some people that want to challenge the system, so that\u2019s it. And a lot of staff members and people, they feel uncomfortable.\u201d A girl sitting behind Anastasia then asked: \u201cYou said the staff feels uncomfortable with what girls wear?\u201d The man answered, \u201cI said years past, some staff members\u2026\u201d \u201cWhy?\u201d she interjected, before a different staff member cut her off and asked the students to \u201crefocus,\u201d evading her question. TikTok users react to student exposing school\u2019s \u201csexist\u201d dress code Several TikTok users slammed the administrator for claiming that the staff was uncomfortable with outfits minors wear to school. \u201cThe staff felt \u2018uncomfortable\u2019 around minors??? Ok bud get new staff they should NOT be around kids\/teens,\u201d one user commented. \u201c\u2018They\u2019re making staff uncomfortable\u2019 so he just told on all of the staff for looking?\u201d another user wrote. \u201cHe just excused patriarchal misogyny. He just basically said boys will be boys,\u201d someone else added. Others users shared their own experiences of being dress coded. \u201cI was 5\u201911 in high school and would ALWAYS get dress coded whenever I wore a skirt. I knew this other girl who was 5\u20193 and would NEVER get dress coded and she wore skirts daily,\u201d one user shared. \u201cOne time there were these two girls wearing tank tops. One was significantly bigger than the other. The bigger girl got sent home for her tank top,\u201d another wrote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
