no seriously, boys could actually wear a bikini and get away with it
stephthehufflepuff _ a guy tied his shirt up to his chest for an entire day and no teachers said anything. i wore a crop top w high waisted leggings and about 1 inch of my midriff was showing and i had to “cover up”
Um no. A guy got yelled out for being shirtless. You tried.
You guys,🙄boys and girls have different body parts stupid!
Gianna 1 it’s a joke..
Actually no. They would get turned away if they weren't in a tux or suit. That's always the dress code for men in formal settings. And that's much more strict than any dress code for girls. Girls have far more options than boys in formal wear.
"No canes"
Blind Students: shook
How to override the rules: Get a service dog
I hope they allow blind students their canes . Canes help blind people find their way around.
@@laurenmenzies5397 they have to, banking disability aides is illegal
Ramya N that actually kinda reminds me. I’m legally blind and a teacher once denied me a big print copy for a whole year which is against the law. He got fined and I’m weird and kinda feel bad
Ilove the navy dress kristen is wearing while they were reading the requirements
Girls: **uses strapless and short dress**
Boys:
Teachers: THE BOYS ARE GETTING EXITED THIS IN UNACCEPTABLE, *LETS PUNISH THE GIRLS*
Love Yourself that’s spot on 👏👏👏
Love Yourself I swear in high school I'm going to break every single stupid dress code rule IMAGINABLE. That's how mad dress codes make me.
mm yes bc girls are wayyy too hot apparently
My shoulders are sexy apparently?
Like Melanie Martinez once said "Got boys acting like they ain't seen skin before/Got sent home to change cuz my skirt was too short", "No one taught them not to grab", and lastly, "Instead of making me feel bad for the body I've got/Just teach him to keep it in his pants and tell him to stop"
On the side note: I'm not blaming boys for their behavior, cuz no boy is EVER going to pin a girl to a wall and say "Hey, mama, those shoulders are such a turn on, lemme get yo number!" (If they do, I'll be slightly concerned)
However, it's sad that girl dress codes PROHIBIT girls from having fun bcuz an ankle, a shoulder, and a neck exists, as well as prohibiting them bcuz of their body shape and outfit aren't considered "appropriate". I find it much more inappropriate to PROHIBIT a girl from prom, just bcuz they're being bodyshamed for having either big breasts to the point that "flesh touches flesh", or for even "wearing a dress that is not covering your chest/neck"
"No cleavage" That's fine. I don't have cleavage. And I never will.
😐😂
Me
Same
Same. Makes dress codes easier to follow tho lol
I felt that
HIDE YA KIDS, HIDE YA FAMILIES, BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, *HIDE THOSE SHOULDERS*
awj A ahahhaha
awj A Never, I'm Hervis Daubeny, the smartest character in No Honor
awj A 😅😅😂
awj A lol!!!
*AND YOUR ARMPIT FLAB*
High school dress codes are not only stupid they are also extremely sexist.
Kaylee Pearce and sexualizes young girls and teaches them that their body is the only thing that people see and it is no more than a sexual distraction
Kaylee Pearce alot of schools had stripes on the ties and they would count the number of stripes before you entered the school.
We also couldn't enter the building until we took our coats off and put them in our school bag not to be seen till you leave the school in the evening (Living in northern England it rains 90% of the year).
Alot of schools girls and boys with hair longer than there collar bones are required tie there hair up, the can only use plain black bobbles. Some schools also won't let boys grow their hair out at all.
On the rear occasion that it was a sunny day you still had to wear full length shirt, tie and blazer and in many schools you would have to ask permission to take your blazer off.
Thankfully when it came to prom the rules where much more relaxed than this, however only 1/5 of the year 11s could go (In England you only have a prom in year 6 and year 11 when you finish primary and secondary school)
grow up, there are people dying
+Candylover 449 and that doesn't mean you get undue privileges because of your gender, not because you deserve them.
Kaylee Pearce not really, men have their ENTIRE body covered. Pants, shirt, tie, blazer...
Can we just appreciate how lovely the fashion designer was
She's a stylist
@@sadem1045 sHes a sTyLiSt literally shut up😂😂
" I'm gonna kiss a boy tonight"
"Ooh"
"No I'm not"
Lol same
I go to an all girls catholic school and the only prom dress guidelines were "we trust you to decide what is inappropriate. Do not make us regret that decision" lol
maddiemainer awww that's so nice better than stupid public schools
maddiemainer
Im a middle school and my dress code isnt to bad.There are some stupid rules but they arent often enforced.
maddiemainer bruh same before my high school of all girls, my grade school prohibited leggings and NAIL POLISH because it was too distracting for boys apparently. And we couldn't wear short shorts. It's not like boys are dogs who can't control themselves smh.
maddiemainer same😂
Now that sounds reasonable.
Do American schools not realize that you can look classy and decent *without* all these ridiculous rules??? All I'm saying is that most girls wouldn't come to a school dance naked.....
It'sWayPastMyBedtime some would though 😔
Many American schools do realize this. These are only five of all the high schools in the U.S.
J TF
what do you mean they dress like prostitutes? I don't see any way how. You can show some cleavage and some leg and still be the definition of classy. And how they are not respecting themselves?
It'sWayPastMyBedtime true
Do you know what century this is girls going to prom do crrazy stuff.
This just makes a person not want to go to prom.
It's true. This is one of the MANY reasons why I'm not going to mine. That and they want to charge like 70 bucks a ticket for the liberty to turn you away at the door when end up breaking the code with a dress and/or make up that you paid large prices for.
If I was a senior at any of these schools in this video, except for high school #4, because that dress code was more reasonable, I would outright REFUSE to go to prom after knowing the dress codes.
My prom doesn't have a dress code because we as students organise it. The school doesn't get a word in about what is and isn't allowed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Can I go to your school? 💀💀
we domt have a school dress code or prom dress code!!
My school dosnt have a dress code yay because if I went to those schools most of my clothes would be “inappropriate” even though there normal girly clothes!!! This is manly in America so I’m not an anerican because that country is sexist sometimes
Mariam Nasser lmao that’s funny that you say you are not an American hahahaha
same LOL our school doesn’t have a dress code we chill
I approve of the guideline "Any area normally covered by a one-piece swimming suit must also be covered by opaque fabric". That one's sensible. The rest are ridiculous.
WOOOOHOOOO MA HOME TOWN!!!!
I’m in 8th grade about to be at broken arrow high school so that’s good for me😂
It's a good idea. I have seen outfits covering less than that at dances and I'll be honest, it is super uncomfortable for everyone to see that, but the other codes are ridiculous.
Kind of eliminates crop/two piece dresses and also potentially strapless dresses depending on interpretation and neither of these things are considered trashy nor inappropriate so honestly it's a weird way to phrase it to me
8th grade and live in Oklahoma and I want to go to Broken Arrow my Junior year just so I can wear any dress I want 😂 But for right no Let’s Go Vian Wolverines 💛💜💛💜
Moment of silence for the people who attend these schools🙏🏼
Bailey I feel like the Oklahoma one was decent
She literally chose the schools with the most conservative dress codes -_- it's called psychology.
+Rylee Johnson how is that psychological lmao
even if it was one school in the whole USA it's too much. You can't tell kids what to wear unless you're their parent.
Have you ever had a job? There's a dress code in almost every area of life- get used to it.
Really? Guys have no canes and girls are having to cover SHOULDERS?!?!?!?!!?!?!
I forgot, how sexy my shoulders are, damn I must just make boys everywhere wet and unable to keep it in their pants when I wear a tank top .................. it’s just something about those bones that just get the boys sweating! WHOOO
I am dying because this is the best comment I have seen so far on an old video that i'm revisiting.
It's not really about boys getting horny. It's more like adults not wanting teens to look trashy? Prom is a formal event, so you have to dress formally. When it comes to guys, there's not much variation in formal suits, but girls with dresses? There are millions of options. Dresses range from extremely revealing, to modest and classy, obviously, do they want to narrow down what you can choose to wear.
how about we imagine this:
A teen girl that grew up with a very strict dress code is invited to a party. She doesn't know what to wear . There is no dress code or anyone to help her . She wears acoording to what she has been told to wear that is "acceptable" for her body now she is at the party and has 0 sence of style looking like a grandma.
@@blackstar1020 that doesn't make any sense
@Kate Ryder She meant that because of the dress code that’s drilled into her mind, she isn’t used to wearing things that break the dress code. And that girl is totally me.
All schools should have the “ it would be covered by a one-piece swimsuit rule, for prom and every day.
Emilia Phillip yes! It makes total sense .
I think some people would still have questions. Like could it be backless? What about a cutout one piece?
I went to vocational school and honestly had this rule for normal classes and a few extra for shop days but were obvious as to why. Like closed toed shoes, no baggy loose clothes if near machinery. Pretty sure everyone boys and girls lived in some form of jeans and T-shirts. Normal school days just keep your butt, crotch, and nipples covered you were fine and that was for boys and girls.
Someone explain please 😂
Emilia Phillip yassss girl you know your facts/the person you got this from!!!
I did NOT have a dress code in high school, no dress code for prom, you could literally wear anything you wanted, unless you showed up in a bathing suit or with no shirt or pants on. It's a high school with over 2000 people and EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN MY GRADE GRADUATED AND WENT ON TO COLLEGE. America, teach your kids how to respect each other, don't force sexist restrictions on them.
you live in Canada?
I grew up in Morocco, and went to french high school!
you're really lucky lmao i live in France and we dont have prom in my school
Really??? omg I'm so sorry!!! Our bal de promo was sooooo much fun!!
twentyonemermaids slay same
Just the fact that there is a dress code for prom dresses in America...
Yeah, because some girls will wear as little fabric as humanly possible, so there has to be a dress code.
+Rylee Johnson why is that a problem if they feel comfortable and look good in it?? it's their body, they can choose to wear whatever they want
Rylee Johnson oh clearly this society fetishizes half dressed women. Women are over-sexualized if you haven't noticed. I could literally put my hair in a pony and it'd be deemed as too sexy and or unladylike. Plus, being comfortable doesn't necessarily equate to being naked.
Plus ya'll these dress codes aren't "must cover everything a bathing suit would cover" (except the one). They're "how dare you show your arms". Like, keeping all girls from showing their shoulders will not prevent actual inappropriate clothing any better than only banning actually inappropriate clothing.
idk why your saying "in america" cuz its literally the same in probably most countries in the entire world. it has been in every country ive been too and lived in.
No flesh against flesh? Well can't wear dresses. 😂😂😂😂🤦🤦🤦 My thighs rub together.
I dont think that would count considdering the dress would cover the flesh touching
@@heartfullbutterfly314 it's a joke, my God
@@tigandtoe obviously it's a joke. I responded because I wanted to. Its a comment section that's what you do lol
do we have to wear gloves or toe socks? my fingers are right next to each other like any normal human being
Whatever you do....don't blink or close your mouth.
*Dress codes*
America:flesh can’t touch flesh, must be modest and cover chest,
must be atleast 4 sizes extra large ++
Students: follows all rules
Teachers: “detention”
Canada: no shoulders or belly button
Me: comes to school in a cropped tube top
The school: okay
BootleggedBoba A I’m Canadian and we can show shoulders or wear crop tops
Claire Delaney I’m Canadian and the relatability of this is insane
The Netherlands be like: what are dress codes?
We don‘t even have dress codes in Germany
my dress code for my dance says girls can't wear suits. i am depressed i was ready to go in a suit and my teacher told me i have to wear a dress and i'm tempted to give my ticket to someone in need i hate dresses
You could take it up with the Administration. Thats what a girl at my school did because we had to wear a dress to prom and graduation. And she got it changed.
Alyssa Rosado what about jumpsuits ?
Alyssa Rosado that's a form of sexism
Alyssa Rosado prom was not worth my time effort or money. Litrally stood in a room with people I dont really like with a band that preppy kids picked :')
Alyssa Rosado go in a dress and change into a suit when you get inside.
Highschool 1: 7/34 dresses allowed.
Highschool 2: 5/34 dresses allowed.
Highschool 3: 9/34 dresses allowed.
Highschool 4: 26/34 dresses allowed.
Highschool 5: 2/34 dresses allowed.
A Person - H.S. 4 is an ANGEL
A Person honestly school 4 was very reasonable
Oklahoma is very reasonable when it comes to prom dress
I live in Oklahoma and our school dress codes are cool
Malena Whitekiller they are the best!!! I used to go to sapulpa and they are very strict compared to union but still very good!:)
Me: * has one molecule of shoulder skin showing *
School: (ง ͠° ͟ʖ ͠°)ง
Me before: This won’t be bad, so many ideas!
Me after: kneecaps are a felony.
You cant wear that because boys think knees are sexy
Girl we got a FULL PowerPoint of what not to wear to prom
I would analyse the power point and try to make the most outrageous outfit that does not technically violate the rules.
eizhowa same😂
lissa killa our School did not Care. A Girl was forced into a fancy dress by her mom (she intended for hoodie and Adidas pants) to rebel she wore red santa Claus socks in her High Heel sandals. Mom was not happy.
oh my, that's so sad. The only rule we have is to not be naked or in underwear. Anything else is fine.
lissa killa 'Murica
That girl who got turned away for wearing a suit pissed me off more than anything. The 1940s called and want their dress code back!
eizhowa it makes no sense to me it's not like she was showing skin or not being 'modest'
+FabFeline In the 1940s, a woman in trousers with a front zipper was considered vulgar. It seems to be equally unprogressive thinking at her school.
eizhowa exactly it's been almost 80 years technology has evolved so why haven't we
eizhowa It's disgusting she was dressed appropriately
"But they said no skin showing or touching other skin, im in a suit therefor i meet guild lines!"
I live in Argentina. Actually, my prom is this year. I've never imagined that something as a dress code for prom would ever exist. Here, every girl chooses the dress she wants and there are no rules according to what ypu should wear or not.
I'm now pleaced to live here
Same here in Chile! Is really disturbing that they are so fixated in the girls bodies that they would not allow them in such an important night because of all those terrible rules.
Only dress codes on my school, was dress for ball! And that's about it.
Here from the dr we dont even have proms
Same over here in Colombia! You just wear what you want and no one really cares
I’m wearing a jumpsuit to prom.
The jumpsuit wouldn’t suit most of these guidelines.
Extreme dress codes for prom kind of takes the fun out the experience in my opinion lol girls had dress code in my high school for prom but nothing extreme. But guys literally took their shirts off and put their ties around their necks and put just their jackets back on.... and no one said anything to them.
July Twentyfirst getting all dressed up and feeling good is like the most fun part
July Twentyfirst of course, you can still have fun and look decent. but for me, prom and being that young is all about experimenting and when there are too many rules, especially when they are pretty sexist, it lowers the experience
*male prom dresscode*
Dude, just wear a tuxedo
*female prom dresscode*
_inhale_
RULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULERULE
MELIZZA yup
MELIZZA OMFG IKR
A lot of school won’t let girls wear tuxes either
Tiffany Mountan oh wow...that sucks*-*...id rather a tux rather than go thru the impossible rules..whats wrong with a girl wearing pants?!
cas ey it depends on the school I think
When i was seven my school called me out for a "to short skirt" I WAS LITTERLY SEVEN IN SECOND GRADE
You know School tries to put the blame on the women because they're dressing the way they want to dress course you can't go to school like half naked or anything but we want to be comfortable with some schools that have been banned tights sweatpants shorts and some muscle shirts for the women maybe instead of blaming the women they should teach the men to respect the women and not to stare can actually teach the men how to be young men I'm a 12 year old and I like to look good but I'm not girly I want to be comfortable in my clothes without looking weird I just wish that instead of blaming the women that they would teach the men how to be actual young respectable men
I totally agree with you. Why do we have to wear according to their needs? We want to be comfortable!!
OMG YES SO AGREEABLE like for girls with bigger breasts of course guys are gonna stare like teach them to be respectable SMH (I'm 13 btw)
So sad to hear this from such a young person. 12 y/o boys prob don’t even care!
If lesbian/bi girls can control themselves when they see a girl showing their *sexy* shoulders, maybe the shoulders aren't the problem.
Preach! Couldn't have said it better myself.
Exactly! I’m pan, and when I see a girl with her shoulders out I don’t wanna jump on her!
Ouiji so am I!
I am pan, and have come across many pretty people in my life. But never once did I think "Dammmnn, look at those shoulders on Becky! 10/10 would smash"
I’m bi I’m fine with girls AND boys showing skin at my school girls can’t show any skin except our faces and skin below the elbow and boys can wear tank tops a shorts and one boy was shirtless and I got dress coded for wearing shorts that went to my knees and he was fine
Kristen looks so pretty in her own dress that she wore to the shoot. I love it!!!
Amy Baillie I wanna know where she got it from cause I want one:(
She looks like a whale
+Mads Schatz-Jakobsen, are you immensely handsome and have 8% body fat to be saying that?
Og da jeg så dig, tænkte jeg straks "Cat with the hat", men er det noget man altid skal pointere?
She was killing it in that dress! I love her sense of style. I swear she wears some of the cutest things!
1:18 I actually have that dress. I wore it to my senior homecoming dance😁
kristin saying that she has decent size jugs where i’m sitting here with barely an a cup😂
anyone else relate
Ughh ikr its degreading to me because at school all the girls are developing so quickly and i look at me and go..: am i normal? Why are they so small. Why does my chest have to be flat? I havent even had my first period yet. I got rejected by my crush last week just because i had a flat chest and a flat bum. Sorry for this rant, just had to get it out there
@@_pipeyyy4054 aww i’m so sorry, at least he didn’t lead you on then break it off for those reasons💗 hope everything works out and you meet someone way better
@@kateselby8424 thank you, really appreciate the support as i really dont talk about how i feel about my body to others much.
My school gave me NO requirements other than the basic, no nudity. That is the same with my school's regular dress code.
The Unicorn King mine too lol
The Unicorn King i go to broken arrow and that's how they treat the dress code. we have a fairly normal dress code but nobody follows it and none of the teachers do anything about it
The Unicorn King same
The Unicorn King where do you live?? My school isn't too bad either. The shoulder straps for things have to be at least three inches and the shorts to the tip of your middle finger. Nobody follows the shorts one. Then there's no holes above mid thigh
Hi I'm awkward I go to school in Des Moines, Iowa, but my school is made up of all of the others in the district so we just discredit the majority of the rules.
My school made a huge deal about showing shoulders. The teachers would get SO mad if even a centimetre of shoulder was showing, and some of those teachers would wear SPAGHETTI STRAPS....
Hypocrites....
They're mad cause their shoulders aren't as sexy as ours. Flaunt it, boo!
I know right
They’re just jealous of us
@@ummmari8107 because teachers knows their arms are sexyer. And they hate girls arms!
They're sexualizing kids. Disgusting
everyone including me in oklahoma shocked that they even mentioned broken arrow lmao
If someone gets mad at me for wearing a suit when I’m a “girl” I will look at them and say
What makes you think I’m a girl? And walk into prom
Oooo
Sameeeeee
I would say are you assuming my gender
This is the enby energy we need
At our prom, the girls dress code is a full paragraph and the guys literally just reads "jackets must be worn. No jeans."
JacAttack If I was a girl getting dress coded at that school I would flip my long hair and say "Are you assuming my gender?!"
JacAttack I don't think my school even has a prom dress code other than no nudity. If there is a dress code, I haven't seen it lol but I know last year some girl wore a dress with impressive side boob and no one bothered her. My friend though the side boob was impressive and showed confidence (my friend wished she had that confidence)
Anh Le are you kidding me?? Lucky...
my dress code say fromal wear, no sneakers/jeans
We didnt have a dress code, i went on my allstars
I honestly don't understand American dress codes? Especially for prom. In N Ireland we have a uniform for school, but for prom, there was no code. It was just assumed that we'd turn up in formal dresses, and we did. Some people wore strapless, some had a bit of cleavage showing, some people wore tighter dresses etc but they were all formal and acceptable for the occasion? It's insane to me the number of rules here.
LS Perry same in my country
Yeah some schools are really anal about it. My school is pretty liberal with dress code though..... That or they just don't care enough.
LS Perry my school doesnt really care
Yeah my school just expects us to have a set uniform with optional blazer. Prom is just formal dresses and tuxedos or suit jacket and kilt.
I'm American and had a similar dress code to you. I think the problem was girls were more and more trying to do the "Hollywood" thing (plunging necklines to the bellybutton, totally see-through except for the bikini areas, a two piece dress with quite a bit of stomach showing, etc.).
okay but like my friend goes to st augustine and she had the hardest time finding a dress this year 🥴
“no canes”
all the blind kids:
our dresscode for German proms is decency and common sense
Larizzo らりっぞ In Sweden we don’t have any dress codes whatsoever lol
Pretty much same here in Ireland. Modesty, classy but not too short (bc it's not a disco).
Lilaz Mo "decency and common sense" bedeutet Anstand und gesunder Menschenverstand
es bedeutet "hab kleidung an"
I'm a 5'3" 32 G. I can't imagine trying to find a dress that completely covered my breasts and also didn't swallow me whole. Prom dress codes are so sexist and discriminatory. I cannot help the way my body is shaped. I should not be punished for that.
Samantha Pater yeah, it's horrible. I have a consultation for a breast reduction tomorrow.
Agatha jay which part?
Ouch! and I thought being 5'6 and a e-cup in hs was bad :( I can hardly imagine how nightmare-ish your gym classes was/are! Did your consulation go well? Crossing my fingers that it did! :)
Gundo93 yes it did, thank you! I'm getting a reduction some time this winter. I'm so excited.
Wow, good luck with your procedure!
If I remember correctly my prom dress code literally followed the rest of the year dress code.... straps had to be three fingers wide, skirts not above the fingertips when arms are straight down etc.... like it was reasonable. I don't even remember there being an issue with girls vs guys with that one. (We had a transgirl in a dress and she had zero pushback it was great, her twirling and her expression made my day.)
everyone forgets how laid back oklahoma is, we’re chill down here y’all
I'm sorry to every teenage boy ever IS MY ARMPIT FAT DISTRACTING YOU
Erin McHugh I died
uh oh my knees are showing...how will the boys ever control themselves??
driscoll callan And make sure your shoulders are completely hidden... we don't want any of those distractions!
driscoll callan hahah
driscoll callan uh oh my shoulder is showing
Fock my arm pit is showing fockkkkkkkkk
driscoll callan THOSE SHOULDERS
Wow I didn’t realize how lucky I was. We had 0 guide lines and we were a uniform catholic school 😅
I’m a “tomboy” and I hate dresses so imma just wear a suit to prom lmao
Why not wear a jumpsuit
U can also wear a romper!
Guy1: dude did you see her shoulders?
Guy2: ya it was so hot, but don't even get me started on her knees.
Guy1: ya I know it was so hot!
*girl is walking by*
*the guys* : DAAAMN GUURL LOOK AT THAT ARMPIT FAT WHOHOOO IS IT HOT IN HERE?!
Lovely Life true
Marlie Gustsol lol
Look at dat collarbone
Would you look at them collarbones
Before my graduation, we had a dress inspection for what we would wear for the graduation reception. We had to go in this room alone with the principal and vice principal while they determine if our dress was appropriate or not. This was the dress code:
- NO off the shoulder
- NO sleeveless or strapless (had to have sleeves)
- NO chest exposed (even a little)
- NO back exposed
- NO stomach exposed
- NO above knee (had to hit knee or lower)
- NO form-fitting or tight
- NO jewelry (they didn’t want us bringing extra attention to ourselves)
- and probably some other stupid rules I’m not thinking of
As you can imagine it was practically IMPOSSIBLE to find a dress I liked.
Oh, and of course there wasn’t an inspection for the boys.. 😒
Wow, this literally is abuse.
thats too much
That’s crazy, it was probably some sexual thing the principal got off on.
1) Boys don't have much variety in what they wear. It's literally just formal suits. Unlike girls, who can choose from a dress that leaves very little to the imagination, to something classy and formal.
2) apart from the jewelery, I see nothing too horrible about these rules. They want you to dress formal, and prom is a formal event. You shouldn't be dressing trashy or..dare I say..slutty, to something like prom. Not saying that's what you were going for, but I also don't see what the huge deal is.
Kate Ryder lmao you don’t need to wear sleeves to be formal honestly some of the rules are stupid
You need to do more of these you guys haven’t in such a long time!!!
3:21 THATS my moms wedding dress
If you can make someone be turned on by your armpit fat, you deserve an award, thats what i call talent
Raging Fangirl 😂😂😂😂
this comment made my day
+Emily Alvarez
Well it ruined mine
luvsbeauty m
thank u for giving me an actual talent
they all look good on her
I agree! I was thinking the exact same thing during the video. She looks like a Greek or Roman goddess in each one.
Yeah right. She is probably the ugliest person I have ever seen.
Tempest you must be a troll, or 10 years old and immature/brainwashed by society into thinking there is only one way to be beautiful. So what if she doesn't fit the mold set by fashion designers or magazines, etc? Anyway, plus-sized models are starting to get more and more accepted and popular, and people are seeing the beauty in all body types, so you gotta get on board and accept people for their own unique beauty or be stuck in the past, miserable and hateful.
this is shocking because i had no dresscodes for my prom dress.
So many nice dresses that looked great on you Kristen! But I really love the black little number you were wearing for the video! So flattering, and pretty on you.
Forget about the prom dresses, that dress that Kristin's wearing in the intro is 12/10 she looks so good
THANK YOU I WAS WONDERING WHERE THE DRESS AME FROM I NEED ONE IN MY LIFE
it would be pretty degrading showing up at prom and being turned away because the teachers don't approve of your dress. I wonder if male dress codes are this hard to follow.
They aren't.
Shoto Todoroki sarcasm.
Shoto Todoroki they can be
Men don't have much choice on what the can wear to prom, they usually wear a suit correct? A suit usually covers all of a man's body except his hands and face. Women have so many different styles of dresses to choose from on the other hand. You don't want a bunch of teenage girls showing off their butts or a little to much cleavage, that's why schools need dress codes.
@@P-Wolsey I do see your point, and i understand what you mean, but I slightly disagree. Yes, schools need dress codes, but I think they're just a tiny bit too strict. Like, no spaghetti straps makes sense, but not being allowed to show any shoulders is a bit over the top. Skirts and shorts, shouldn't be showing off butts, but forcing girls to wear skirts that are super duper long can get annoying. Same with shorts, except shorts can't get very long before turning into capris, I guess.
So, I do agree that schools need dress codes, I just think they don't have to be super extremely strict.
Yes because men always stare at my armpits and can’t do anything because of how distracting they are. Also why the heck are girls not allowed to wear spaghetti strap tank tops but boys are allowed to wear tank tops that have no sleeves and show the side of their chests??
Her dress is so cute (what she wears in between prom dresses)
Wolf Rabbitfoot yes! I want to know the brand of that dress!
My high school doesn't allow girls to wear suits.. so stupid 🙄
Hena Hamzic wahhhh that's sooooooooooooooooo stupid! 😰😡😨😝
What if you don't like dresses
They're sexist
What?! Did they give a reason?
D:
and all men have to do is rent a black suit
I'm in love with your dress you're wearing (not the prom dresses) I need that dress
I'm so happy i live in the Netherlands😂 at my school we have a prom and there is no dresscode there, also for school we don't have a dresscode it isn't a usual thing and i'm so happy about that
The only reasonable dress code was the one from Oklahoma. Some of these verge on discriminatory and outright forcing religious standards onto people that are, if not almost, adults. It's ridiculous. Some of these schools I wouldn't have even attended prom, or I would have gone somewhere completely else with my friends where I was free to express myself.
Megan L I'm from Oklahoma and the dress code for Broken Arrow was more strict than my school. Some girls about went to prom in bikinis
Paraclete is a religious school that's why
I'm from Mustang, Oklahoma and we have no prom dress code, but people still keep it classy and covered for the most part👍🏻
+Katie Onkst aye I'm from Tuttle oklahoma
Megan L OKLAHOMA IS WHERE IT'S AT
My fave Rule was from Broken Arrow,OK: If a One Piece bathing suit covers an area, the dress must hast have opaque material in same area.
That's simple, and leave room for Alot of fasion
I'm just saying the rule is fair....Doesnt mean the school's not shite
MY Hs had some fair dance rules and was still shite
My prom dress did not follow that rule (a lot of my back was visible) but it was very classy. Even that rule might be too vague.
I go to a high school that's about 10 minutes from BA and all our dress codes around this area are the same and it's amazing
1930s style one-piece bathing suit or Kim Kardasian style one piece bathing suit though?
Keltarian that seems fair enough
One point for Oklahoma!
(I’m from Tulsa)
From Konawa,Oklahoma
Geez, I'm in seventh grade and had to switch into online school (for many other reasons but this was a reason) because I was harassed and cat called by so many older boys in my school. My body just developed faster and I've always had a bigger chest and hips and I get catcalled for it so much. I'm not even allowed to say "crap" In my house and I'm getting harassed.
Our school has no rules at all, you can be a boy in a dress or a girl in a suit and that is fine. And i love it!
Happy lieke School goals
Happy lieke u r so lucky
Happy lieke that's awesome
Ours u just can't show bum then your good 2 go
Harry Potter fan I like your profile picture and username
not to mention Broken Arrow also has an OUTSTANDING marching band
We do
I was scrolling to see if anybody would mention your band. Band kids unite!
Danni Schottke Go Band. Hello from mcloud band!
Yes! I'm from Oklahoma (Pryor) I always loved seeing Broken Arrow's show. I was in colorguard my senior year of high school and we actually rented our guard uniforms from Broken Arrow that year.
Yasssssss
Thank you for doing South Dakota!! I live an hour from Aberdeen!
Ahhh the pink dress was so pretty!
I've never heard about that flesh touching flesh rule.. but I graduated in 09. Maybe it's a new thing..?
MaloreeStarboat didn't graduate yet, didn't hear of it yet, until now I guess.
Saba Blah hahahauhahaha OMG
I graduated in june 2016, (in canada, mind you) and we didn't have any dress codes besides obvious ones (be covered, and look nice) So i find it interesting that USA has so many?
MaloreeStarboat Yep.
My school doesn't have any code regulations for prom, just don't get drunk til after prom. These two boys turned up in a wheel barrel once, that was quite weird to see, one was sitting in it and the other was pushing 😂
That would be me and my best friend
The pink and white dress was the best! So pretty!! :-)
When I went to prom I wore a strapless, sweetheart neck dress and no one said anything.
I'm already insecure when it comes to dresses, now they putting these insane dress codes. Jesus I'm just not going.
buddy don't let the dress codes stop you from awkward conversation
Also you could wear a tux
goal pop OMG I WEAR PJ BASCLILLY EVERYDAY SO......MY DRESS CODE IS ONLY COMFY CLOTHES AND OF COURSE PJ!?!?!?DO I LILE IT?!?!?.....
goal pop 🙈
goal pop iok
I've never experienced anything such as dress codes at my school. You could literally wear whatever the heck you want, everyday! I'm so glad that I'm living in Germany, America you got me shook again for once... smh 😑😒 this is as sad as it gets, honestly
Nele Tretow That's what I was thinking, too. They always praise how free the US are but in fact they don't even trust you on your clothing choices.
In America, though, people show up wearing miniskirts and lingerie. Trust me, for the sake of actually getting people to clothe themselves, dress codes are (unfortunately) required.
Alma Saon In Germany people come to school in miniskirts and stuff too so in my opinion dress codes are bs
Nele Tretow Believe me, people in America hate it too. Blame the board of education or something...it's very frustrating. There should be dress codes in place but not this strict. (I say that because some people would show up wearing basically underwear if given chance.) We need to teach guys how to not be buttholes instead of making girls cover up...
Nele Tretow I'm not even allowed to wear leggings. Or wear shorts, even if they are at the knee. Or wear tank tops. Or wear something that shows any part of my bra. Why? Because it's too "distracting." These rules wouldn't be unbearable, except for the fact that I live in southern Texas, where it gets over 100°F every year by may.
I really wanted to see the dress that was shown as each rule was read! That pink frilly one was super cute.
And that’s why kids they say Australia is the golden country! Bc when we’re in high school, we get uniforms and only a few dress codes for prom!
(I actually don’t know what they call it no hate plz)
Kristen: I’m gonna kiss a boy tonight.. just kidding
Me: Same queen.. same
BTW the navy blue dress you were wearing a the beginning of the video is sooooo beautiful on you!
Malena Neumann Right?! I need to know where that dress came from. Totally cute.
you look soo stunning! That perfect dark blue Dress from the beginning😍
The silver glitter long sleeve dress looked fabulous though. Probably the best thing I’ve ever seen her in.
Dress codes for prom dresses?! Good thing that this doesn't exist in Germany 👌
YAS
Naja, eigentlich gibt es schon welche, aber die sind dann nur über die Schriften auf deinem Shirt usw
I'm so thankful that my prom dress code was basically "no exposed midriffs" and that's it.
Yet sooo many girls felt like that was an impossible standard.
And this is when I’m happy my school doesn’t have an prom dress code
The first dress was so pretty and flattering
'Land of the free' am I right?
"....O'er the land of the percieved free and the home of the not-so-brave-when-confronted-with-flesh!"
They are not hating on the US, just making an observation
+TheOutsiderFangirl No one has said anything about hating the US. Where did you get that from?
There is not a single country in the world free of flaws (but there are many who do not have the same flaws as the US). That doesn't mean we hate every country in the world.
You don’t want a thigh gap anymore, you want an ARMPIT gap
Edit: wow, it feels like I’m famous. I’ve never gotten this many likes. Thanks
Ok I'm here picturing an armpit gap and THAT SEEMS SO WEIRD
Cleavage is NOT in my vocabulary. I can get away with not wearing a bra and nobody will notice. I also have a little bit of armpit fat and I am as flat as a board. 😑
Kristin, I love the opening navy blue dress your in!
Just getting excited and my prom is in 4 years 😂 This video inspires me to dry different styles and to see how it looks ❤
I went to catholic school that had one of those dress codes. No straps thinner than 1 inch, long dresser for senior prom, no cut outs, could not be “too fitted” (whatever that means, no exposed back or midriff, no low cut front, no skits in the skirts.......
Would they tell one girl that her dress was "too fitted" while another girl wore the same dress (but had a different body type)?
Would wearing a turtleneck, sleeve to the elbow, with ankle skirt work?
Kayla Resurreccion omg
Kayla Resurreccion they are conservative Catholics just like my mom
yes! it was so stupid
Oh because my knees and shoulders are gonna make boys fall for me during prom...
Uh..no.
Stephanie Zhao ASUNA AND KIRITO
like, thats what im thinking the whole time i watch this freaking video!
Stephanie Zhao omg truuu
😂😂😂ikr like what makes people think knees and shoulders are soooo distracting and “sexy”
Do teachers just walk around with a tape measure saying yep that’s over 5” you broke the dress code 😂
My school’s homecoming dress code is pretty chill
I wore a long strapless dress and some of my friends wore some with their midriff showing, there were some really short ones, and one of my guy friends wore a dress to homecoming because he’s cool like that
