What do you think would be the argument against school uniforms?
>Promote school pride and identity
>Reduces bullying
>Reduces misbehavior
>Helps students improve academic performance
>Uniforms can easily be made in America
>Kids save time on getting ready for school
>Parents save money on clothes
>When a kid grows out of them, they can simply donate back to the school to be resold later for a discounted price for parents that may have trouble affording them
So yeah, what's stopping them?
Uniforms are fucking expensive asshole
Kids hate wearing them
>What do you think would be the argument against school uniforms?
Is the school going to pay for the uniforms?
Kids also hate:
-Eating vegetables
-Doing homework
-Having a bedtime
No one gives a fuck what you hate even if you're 96.
It makes your kids look like the wiener patrol and does not quite agree with the concept of freedom.
>Uniforms are fucking expensive asshole
Not really. Even ALDI here are offering them for cheap for all those working class scum who can't afford to spend more then 20 pounds on a school uniform.
>>Promote school pride and identity
Not in this day and age. What sort of kid thinks it would be cool to be proud of whatever shitty elementary/middle school they're going to? They'd rather be proud of whatever MLG clan they're in or nigger gang they're part of.
I went to school with a uniform, you kind of hate it in primary school, but in high school it was really good.
The rivalry with other schools, especially at inter-school events was amazing.
>Some people will never know the joy that puberty and school uniforms provide.
>The rivalry with other schools, especially at inter-school events was amazing.
I mean, kids love Harry Potter and THEY had uniforms! And the rivalry between the houses is now within our pop cultural lexicon.
>What do you think would be the argument against school uniforms?
Letting an institution tell you and your child how they should dress for school
>they can simply donate back to the school to be resold later for a discounted price for parents that may have trouble affording them
Socialism
OP confirmed Berniebot
>Letting an institution tell you and your child how they should dress for school
Parents do the same thing. This just makes things easier on them because they don't have to worry about their kid wearing things that they oughtn't be wearing.
>Socialism
Weeelllll...
But seriously, id's be different than Salvation Army/Goodwill, eBay, or college bookstores. You could even have people opt into renting uniforms.
School uniforms should look like military uniforms and students disciplined accordingly for deviations
Unless you're japan or thailand with more attractive schoolgirl uniforms
>Promote school pride and identity
As if that even matters in modern times
>Reduces bullying
Look at Japan's suicide rates as due to bullying.
>Reduces misbehavior
How.
>Helps students improve academic performance
wat
>Kids save time on getting ready for school
Lie.
>Parents save money on clothes
Is your kid going to wear the uniform outside of school? What about the money parents must pay for casual/work clothing? I personally remember going out on Saturday nights when I was younger and thinking, "I know I have this nice Under Armour shirt, but I sure do with I could be dressed like a faggot."
>When a kid grows out of them, they can simply donate back to the school to be resold later for a discounted price for parents that may have trouble affording them
Nothing says "Please don't bully me" more than when little Jimmy has a blazer from 2010.
They're for inner city schools with problems, and private schools.
Would the teachers and staff be required to wear the same uniforms? If not, why not?
It seems fair and in keeping with the conformity arguement OP posited. One less thing to set the teachers and students apart from one another.
>prevents bullying
Tell that to my son who went to a private school (with uniforms) and attempted to kill himself due to bullying.
dont you mean your wifes son?
He said reduces nigger
You want people to wear uniforms, and some people agree with you. Other people don't want to wear uniforms and disagree with you.
Why you feel the need to subject other people to your personal and aesthetic whims is pretty revealing of your character though.
I wish I went to a school with a uniform.
I wish I had gone to school and had friends, went on dates and enjoyed life.
I just want a family now and to give my future son a better life. If for some reason I don't keep this new job I'm in training for right now I'll probably just off myself since I'll have no career and no social status/income to attract a mate.
They obviously didn't bully him due to his choice of clothing. Without uniforms, the extra little bit of clothing related bullying might actually have got him to succeed in taking his own life.
>No one has pride in their school
>Bullying is an important part of growing up
>It only reduces dress code misbehavior which is rare anyway.
>Its very unlikely that it improves performance, do you have proof of a direct correlation?
>Clothes can be easily made anywhere, the price of production is what matters
>This is a decent point
>Uniforms are expensive as balls.
>Same with any clothes
>Promtes diversity and self representation
>Not everyone has to be a clone of everyone else.
Uniforms are a good thing cause they teach kids to dress respectfully
believe it or not, kids have a desire and need to express themselves and clothing is a major part of that
removing that mode of expression shouldn't be done lightly
It prevents bullying about clothes
and banning guns prevents gun murders
It's not really the case at all. We felt no unity or togetherness around others in the same uniform, weak or troubled kids were bullied regardless, kids still pissed around in class delaying lessons pretty much daily, and there was no collective increase in grades. Dumb kids remain dumb kids.
Uniforms don't need to be like OP's pic. Some schools only require uniformed tops, and it can be as simple as a polo.
Never had to wear them but my little sister did. She enjoyed it. No more cliquish styles. Since then I understand why Steve Jobs always wore his fucking turtle-neck, jeans and sneakers. Less time wasted on trivial things, more time promoting the exact same phone with a higher digit to idiots.
no argument against it unless its mandated by the state. i dont think public education institutions should mandate conformity in a society that prides itself on individualism.
if a private education institution seeks to impose uniforms and parents sign on to it, i see no problem. it promotes order and conformity. it also supports a sense of community and team work.
there are pros and cons to either that really dont matter in the grand scheme of things seeing as those pros can be learned in just existing and participating in society.
ill send my kids to a private school if i can afford it. just to keep them away from a majority of the shit tier kids.
Uniforms are good, fuck off.
This.
My school was fucking wild. Mainly because of the size. You could jack a kid for his watch and money and you may never see him again
Don't be stupid it's nothing Alike
bullying isn't driven by the topic of bullying
And nobody'll notice if your parents are neglectful and let you wear the same clothes everyday.
>>Parents save money on clothes
By having to buy school uniforms and regular clothes?
That costs more money.
uncomfortable for kids
expensive
uneccesary
>It prevents bullying about clothes
Unless the kid's pants are too short.
It doesn't fix bullying like it claims to and just attempts to strip you of your individuality. Shit's expensive, unpractical and looks retarded too so there's that.
Putting on clothes doesn't "strip you of your individuality". It has nothing to do with individuality.
you only need a couple of uniformes that you wash often if you have them, if not you would need many pairs of regular cloths for school. you cant ware the same cloths 4 days in a row even if you wash it because you will look like a fag. you can wear the same uniform every day.
spotted the angsty fag who dose not like to wear uniforms, your points are useless
Good. That's the point.
That's what our uniform was like. All you needed after that was just plain grey pants or a plain grey skirt.
Coupled with the implication of putting people on an imaginary leveled playing field in order to counter bullying it tries to. Not that hard to see where the logic stems from:
"Hey kids, you'll all be wearing these clothes exclusively from now on when you're in school so that none of you stand out. That way you can't bully each other because you're totally the same."
It's really just a pathetic attempt to fix something that isn't an issue stemming from clothes to begin with.
I don't deny other people might reason that way. My only point is that it's not valid reasoning, since a person's individuality is essential to them, and has nothing whatsoever to do with whatever clothes they happen to wear.
One could argue that the lack of cliquish attire, as was mentioned, would inspire people to be more unique in ways that matter more.
That's the point I was making the entire time, it's flawed logic and that's why forcing people to wear silly uniforms won't solve anything.
They think that by forcing you to wear the same clothes you can make differing personalities suddenly disappear and therefore solve bullying or whatever socioeconomic excuse they can come up with. It's a failure and benefits nobody except the companies making the clothes.
I don't like talking about "inspiration" or other qualities having to do with what might motivate someone, since anyone can be motivated by anything to do or not do anything else.
Yeah, I agree. Though if everyone likes the aesthetic image of a bunch of people in the same style of clothes, that's not a non-benefit.
Our public school in Louisiana makes it mandatory for students to wear white, red, or blue polo with khaki or black pants. No jeans.
They did this because of the niggers. I shit you not. Also,it eliminated "status".
It didn't really work. Everyone came up with their own individual style of wearing the uniform and wore hoodies since the school couldn't ban them. The rich kids, losers, jocks, junkies, and niggers still separated into their groups.
We also have to wear an ID around our neck at all times. Like a tag on a lanyard.
that is in fact a non-benefit
on the same order of getting your kid organized so their dick looks the same as yours
>hoodies in Louisiana
Way too warm for that.
So music you like would simultaneously give no benefit. Or art. Or food. Or anything else that has to do with aesthetic sense.
If you actually believe that, enjoy.
It gets down to 15-20F during December. Plus the humidity makes it feel like your in a fridge the mists water.
making a bunch of kids wear uniforms because YOU think they look nice does SOCIETY no benefit
"Society" doesn't have interests. People do.
During any other time I wouldn't be able to stand it. Even Arkansas is way too warm for me.
This.
/thread
I personally approve but the case has to be made to others.
Kill yourself tripfag
Not before you finish your monthly goat-fucking quota, gypsie.
There is no argument against school uniforms.
nya~
School uniforms are hot as fuck.
I went to a British-style Bilingual School.
Most schools here are like that.
This was my High School's uniform.
They are also anti-degeneracy and promote discipline and social equality since everyone is dressed the same.
What's not to like?
Jeans and a T-shirt are all I've worn my entire life, so no thanks
No one cares faggot
When I went to school, half of my classmate wore adidas sweatpants, huge sneakers, hoodies and baseball caps. Looks ridiculous, and it constantly reminds them that they are "thug" or "2cool4school".
A school uniform would put pressure on them to behave and do well. They would feel stupid if they were to yell and throw chewing gum on the wall if they were dressed neatly.
In what world does wearing clothes change your personality?
Are these magic clothes? Student Uniform +3? Do they give me fire resistance?
nah, but chicks get +2 to seduce
Depends on the chick senpai.
But my son Tyrone need to espress himself at school so we can get that money fo dem programs
Don't be stupid, fucking nigger. If someone is wearing neat clothes, he would feel silly if he acts like a fucking idiot to other people.
Try it for yourself. Walk through town twice. Once in baggy pants, a hoodie and flip flops, the other time wearing a nice blazer and chino pants, with a fresh haircut.
Don't act like you don't know what I'm talking about, Mr. Molyneux.
Uniforms might be cool if I didn't hate my school and the people who go to it. Beaner/immigrant infested dump. I wish I could have gone to the white high school but it's farther away.

You're asking the complete wrong person these questions if you want an answer that confirms your view.
What I'm wearing has zero impact on my behavior.
>what's not to like?
>social equality
I agree with them though and appreciate the anti degeneracy part
agreed
What I'm wearing has. We had this debate once in polsci class, almost everyone agreed with me, including obnoxious assholes.
Uniforms help protect against degeneracy of dress. If you anti-uniform posters went into a high school today, you'd come out in favor of school uniforms, guaranteed.
I like the concept of school uniforms, but why do they always look so shitty?
First off, they should never be like your OP pic. Having to wear a dress shirt and a tie everyday is uncomfortable as fuck, much less having to wear a fucking jacket.
Neat. Appealing to the masses doesn't help the strength of an argument though.
short answer is it stimulates the free market much more to not use uniforms
How so?
That's a pretty bold statement. You really believe no one here never visits either their local or any other high school?
They look like the Amish.
I'd say a good 90% or higher hasn't been in a high school since they've graduated.
Fag what is your problem? If most people have positive effects from dressing neatly, doesn't this support my claim that uniforms are beneficial because they make people behave?
I have, and I don't agree with school uniforms. I think they're just annoying - especially when they're uncomfortable or otherwise suck.
No, since you haven't confirmed "most people" change their behavior. You've only recounted a memory in which you say your one class one time seemed to be like-minded with you.
...
Too expensive, solves no problems and just creates more sets of unnecessary school policies.
My school district tried to implement uniforms for one year and it did nothing but cause drama.
>And it will be justified
Except that's wrong~
"Do not use force against an evil man."
Do you have any idea of how polls are being made in the real world? When you read in the papers that more than half of americans are christian, do you dismiss that fact just because they didn't explicitly ask every single person with an american citizenship?
Only because it's winter and the girls are wearing leggings.
Then don't have shitty uniforms. You could literally make a uniform at Walmart that's in the 20-30 dollar range that almost anyone could afford and that is also comfy. Anything to keep niggers from showing their underwear to the world, or girls from exposing their ass cheeks or wearing yoga pants.
Show me the poll of people responding to the question "Do you behave better when you're wearing what you think of as nicer clothes?"
No. There are really shitty uniforms, and schools adopt them.
You can have school dress codes without having school uniforms.
Almost all Indian schools have uniforms
Dress codes don't work. Girls will cry sexual harassment or accuse school officials of pedophilia if someone gets them in trouble for dressing like a slut, while niggers cry racism when they get in trouble for dressing like niggers.
>dress codes don't work
I wonder why people get sent home constantly for violating them then?
Because they definitely do in the schools I went to and have worked in. Maybe they don't in whatever cesspool you've found yourself in before.
Getting sent home does nothing though.
If getting sent home does nothing, then the kid is probably a lost cause to begin with, since that implies the parents don't care that their child is missing school because they can't follow what tend to be not very restrictive clothing rules.
