Personally I think it depends on the occasion. At my old job we had a super conservative dress code and I hate how I look in dress pants so I exclusively wore skirts and dresses. In personal life I'm pretty much equal opportunity for all three, but the only pants I really wear are jeans. I kind of assumed that I was in the minority though

In my experience, the good teachers want to work at the good schools. My friend is a teacher, and she just switched to a much nicer district because she was sick of dealing with students and parents that didn't care. They pay is actually worse at the nicer district, but the support is so much better. She will also have students who are engaged in learning and their parents actually care about them doing well. And since she teaches seniors, they'll get to her and they'll already know how to form a coherent sentence, which means she won't have to spend so much class time reviewing basics that they should have learned in middle school.
I don't see much mention of the impact of segregation and concentrated poverty here - maybe because others aren't speaking from the point of view of an urban district. But everywhere I've lived, the first year teachers (and TFA folks) go to the schools with the least resources and the most community challenges. The teachers get burnt out fast and move on. Standardized testing is just one thing to deal with when you also have kids from high stress and/or violent environments who act out or have disabilities, too few resources, and constantly trying to attain standards when your entire classroom started the year already performing under grade level. I know a lot of people who have started teaching at urban schools and most of them are now doing other jobs. So it isn't that students and parents "don't care" in "bad districts."
True. I oversimplified. The parents are working, the kids are working, and they don't need to know how to analyze literature, so they don't put much effort into it. They also don't have time because they're working. There is absolutely a huge poverty issue in the lower performing schools, and all of the public funding laws make it worse. Basing the budget on attendance and test scores penalizes those that need the most money to up their attendance rates and test scores.

risscaboobs, when I was in college, yoga pants and a sweatshirt was every day attire. Unless it was summer. Then it was shorts and a t-shirt. That's something I miss SO much. I miss rolling out of bed and being able to throw on whatever. I did not give one fuck about what I wore to class.
Me! I love dresses/skirts, it's just took cold here most of the year (and I hate tights/stockings).
So apparently only North Americans skip hosiery in the summer, I got dinged in an executive presence thing for this.... It's considered polish and allegedly hosiery is year round. Do not GAF!!!!

I don't really understand free the nipple. Are there women out there who want to walk around topless?
My possible UO is I don't really want to see man or woman nips.
Ok, so the fastest explanation is that people are trying to prove a point that there is no difference between male and female nudity. There should not be a double standard.

I've never even heard of this. But I would say there is definitely a difference between topless men & topless women. I understand wanting gender equality, but equality =/= that there are absolutely no differences between the genders.

Okay, that I agree with. I thought they wanted to make it okay for women to be topless in public, which I think is fair since men can but I guess my UO is I don't want to see men or women topless in public.

I'm in agreement with you. I just wanted to provide an explanation of the free the nipple movement.

That's exactly what I was saying. By making allowing women to be topless in public without scruntiny, you are removing a double standard.

I don't know why, but this line just makes me laugh. Like, it's a semi-serious post about a name that is kind of funny. I guess that's what it is.
Personally, I would prefer if people were more focused on trying to take the stigma away from breastfeeding in public.
I think that's made farther headway than topless women. I saw a woman breast feeding in a very public facility and no one bat an eye. If a woman walked through topless that would be chaotic. I don't know if you were trying to compare the two campaigns but I did it anyway.

There is still alot of stigma associated with BFing in public. I feel the two campaigns are strongly connected, even though it may not seem like they are. Others might disagree.

I agree completely. I got into an argument with some girl from hs on Facebook because she was saying it was all for attention. I think normalizing BF in public is important. I'm sorry but if my son cried he ate. I got over whatever uncomfortableness right quick.

I agree they are connected. It's about desexualizing women's breasts (IMO).
But here's the devils advocate, breasts are sexual. However a woman breastfeeding is not and shouldn't be considered sexual.
