By generalizations I mean it's usually talked about as "all schools" or "most schools" or "Guys never get talked to", but I think we should take a step back here for a second.

Couple of things in relation to the story that started this thread.

1. We don't know how much of the story is true.

2. Even if it is true, what the teacher says doesn't necessarily reflect school policy.

I personally don't feel school dress code is anti-feminine. Women naturally have more to cover up than men do. It's just true. Men don't have boobs so they don't need to worry about covering up there boobs. Put two penises on a guys chest and I'm more than 100% certain he would have to cover that up. But all men have are flat chests and therefore have to use far less effort than a woman to cover their chest up.

I don't know any school that allows guys to walk around with their chests out, they must wear a shirt. Women just have the added bonus of covering up their hilly terrain, it doesn't mean it's anti-feminine.

When I was in grade school there were a couple of times where I got talked to about the things that I was wearing. One instance was when I came to school with a basketball jersey on with no shirt underneath. What happened? I was told I was showing too much skin and they made me go home and put an undershirt on underneath.

I personally feel this isn't about being against women, it's about showing too much in public schools whether you're male or female. Women disproportionately get talked to more about how they dress because they tend to push the boundaries of what's wearable in public. Men just put on jeans and a shirt.

I can only speak for the policies at the schools I have attended and worked at, but a lot of these policies are universal. Stories like this, however, are not, and I agree that we only have part of the story. Schools usually can't comment on 90% of what happens. I said the teacher should be reprimanded and I said so because I can't believe the actual policy would restrict the student's clothes, this is just it being incorrectly enforced. 

But just speaking from experience, if a girl gets reprimanded, it's for the amount of skin shown, but for a boy it's for the content of his attire. Boys don't have short length or strap width requirements. Like I said, cleavage is totally different.
