I am quite glad I was able to wear band shirts at school instead of some stupid fucking uniform and tie.

Why, you don't like dressing nicely?

No. I don't think I've "dressed up" in over a year, that's including one wedding and one funeral.

Band shirts are kind of trashy though...

I have a bunch of band shirts, an Aqua Teen Hunger Force shirt, two shirts I got from work and a shirt from my alma matter university (which I'm actually wearing right now.) All my other shirts are band.

I love ATHF, but I wouldn't be seen wearing an ATHF shirt in public...especially not if I was over 25.


You have absolutely no garb that possesses class at all?

In my closet. Only wore it when I was looking for a job.

What would I dress up for now? Work? Scene bars? Dude Fest?

Going anywhere with a dress code would cost too much anyway.

BTW Minneapolis is full of people over 30 who wear band shirts. I've heard of people buying band shirts for their kids.

If you mean 'look fascist' that's fine, Hugo Boss had good taste.

No, they are fascistic. My school's uniforms happen to talk, for some reason.

Though I oppose the mandatory wearing of uniforms I must say I am quite a fan of the Catholic School Girl.

School uniform can help to make class divide in schools less apparent.

Exactly. They have had a bit of a come-back (if they ever really went away) in this part of Scotland mostly due to parental pressure for that reason. It is cheaper to buy a basic uniform (white shirt, grey trousers, tie, shoes) and a change of uniform than it is to buy, mix, match and alternate casual dress. On limited budgets the demand to be seen in the 'right' clothes or wear the clothes of the right group can be expensive.

I wore a uniform right through from 'short trousers' as a boy all the way up to blazer and braiding. I have no problem with it and I felt none the worse for wearing it.

I never understood that whole class divide crap, it wasn't obvious in my high school based on what people were wearing. One's clique perhaps, but that wasn't based on income, I knew some kids from richer families who hated preppy clothes and would never wear them.

Also if that's the reason why not just make the uniform a plain white T-shirt (or maybe a school shirt or something) and jeans instead of some horrid crap no kid would ever wear voluntarily?
