whocares1970This is what their "rights" are considered to be by the left:
<< For schoolgirls, the skirt is on the way out. An analysis of the uniform policies of schools in England shows that at least 40 secondaries have stopped girls from wearing them, while others are consulting on a ban.
The change to trousers comes as schools opt for gender-neutral uniforms to cater for transgender pupils.
Priory School in Lewes, East Sussex, which banned skirts last year, said pupils had questioned why its uniform was different for boys and girls, and that the needs of transgender students must be taken into account. Crawshaw Academy, near Leeds, is “consulting on implementing a gender-neutral uniform (trousers only)”. >>

BTW, this (and tons of other stories) clearly shows that when they talk about "transgender" they do not mean somebody born a man who wants to be a woman or vice versa. They create a completely special type of people.

I wonder why rad-fems didn't demand uniform (ha!) change of uniforms for the skirt?! boys, girls, trans, and anything in between?
