    Dude I went to a catholic school with uniforms, it doesn’t stop you getting distracted.

    I think all it did was give me a low level thing for tights 😅

    Also in the “outside world” you aren’t truely free, there is public indecency laws at the very least.

      Uniform is the solution we have at the moment. But as you said that’s not the best one. If there is a better solution we should go for it.

      Regarding outside world, agree there as well. But compared to school obviously there is more freedom.

      Overall, my whole point was the two sidedness of the issue.

        You misunderstand me. I don’t think its not the best solution.

        I think uniform is a solution you think we have to a problem you think exists.

        For as long as we’ve had young people in general education we have anecdotes of them being distracted because the way we do education is boring, it’s never going to be solved unless there is reform.

        Being distracted by their peers clothes is not a real problem it’s just a type of distraction and I’ve told you that uniform doesn’t stop this distraction. The actual solution is to massively increase the education budgets and nearly do a historical tutorage system for each child where they advance at their own speed with expert teachers in very small class sizes of 1-3. But this will probably never happen.
