Good for rule. Equality
School banned boys from wearing shorts during a heatwave, so they wore skirts.

NOOT NOOT Motherfucker!
I wonder why they felt the need to run the actual photo through an AI slop machine?
honestly what you posted just looks like a different image from the same photo session. not seeing anything too wrong with the original post
It's not, look at the color of the tie of the boy on the center right. It's blue in the original and yellow in the edit.
Putting photos through AI filters is what a lot of content farms/thieves do to not get caught by copyright filters.
Also the darkest kid and the most ginger kid together on the center left are more, uh, Anglicized in the AI version.
Holy shit. Well, re-uploaded the real picture because holy fuck that's awful.
I was becoming crazy looking for the differences!
Saaaaame 🫠
I was going nuts trying to find these differences. I was looking so hard I actually started seeing them even though they weren't there
I hope it was something benign, but who the fuck knows these days. >.>
Thanks for commenting this.
What did the AI image look like?
It was somewhat the same with a few colours switched out and everyone that wasn't overtly Caucasian was made Caucasian.
I think I've seen a story like this posted every 6 months for years now.
Edit: the other story that has been recycled regularly since the dawn of time is the story of a young undergrad woman hooking up with some older sugar daddy to fund her university fees.
We need daily stories like this. Normalise boys wearing skirts.
My job includes going to a lot of weddings, and I probably do two weddings a year where someone shows up in a kilt. One wedding had the entire Groom's side in kilts. Not the groom, though, he had on a tux. The Bride wasn't letting it go that far.
it's the gender agenda
it says throwback so this is another old story i think. but actually i don't think I've seen this specific one before.
The more things change, the more they stay the same
It was probably this very story. It happened quite some time ago.
I mean I did this in highschool, handed out flyers and organized and got sent to the office for it but I did nothing wrong.
One boy in year nine (eighth grade in the United States), who was also sporting a skirt, said the protest had started with five boys, but he expected “hundreds” to join in.
Asked if he enjoyed the feeling of wearing a skirt, he said: “It’s just a nice breeze.”
Another boy, in year 10, said he was “put in isolation” for wearing shorts to school on the previous day.
A mother with a 14-year-old son at Isca said: “My son wanted to wear shorts but was told he would be put in the isolation room for the rest of the week.”
She added, “The head teacher told them ‘Well you can wear a skirt if you like’ but I think she was being sarcastic. However children tend to take you literally and so five boys turned up in skirts today – and because she told them it was OK there was nothing she could do as long as they are school skirts.”
What is "the isolation room"? That sounds terrifying.
It makes me think of the chokey from Matilda
Its like in school suspension i assume. Iss is also called "safe" or detention
Detention is after regular school hours, isolation is during school hours, you get taken out of class.
Bet, so def more iss or safe for the midwest american audience lmao
It replaced paddling.
It involves nervous-system detachment. Isolates your body from any sensation. There was a Black Mirror documentary about it.
THE ISOLATION ROOM???? what
How long until anti-trans campaigners complain and try and ban this, you know, because Terf Island.
Anyway Modern Problems require Scottish Solutions!
*Kilts
just a subset of skirt
unless femboy
Kilts cover the knees and are more heavily pleated
most of those kilt rules aren't Scottish.
The English banned kilts, except for the military. the results was that the kilt became a formal military uniform. And therefore full of strict rules on how to wear it. traditionally, you could wear a kilt or a great kilt however the fuck you wanted. it was what the people wore, from plebs to royals.
IE, fuck the English, be ungovernable
Aye
Aye, sure, but those are skirts in the photo. Nowt wrong with that either, but there's nae point in having two words when there's a difference between what they mean.
wasn't really talking about that photos, just hate what the brits did to
kiltseverythingBrits or English?
Like, I get it - the clearances aren't recognised enough as being one of the earliest genocides of the British Empire, but it wasn't just the English who were responsible. Plenty of Lowland and Highland Scots were complicit. Nowadays I think a lot of us recognise that the kilt as typically worn is not the same as 500 years ago, but we still wear it with pride. I sure as hell wouldn't want to wear a great kilt to a good ceilidh!
Nah. A kilt is longer, thicker, and has a flat double layer of fabric in the front (the apron). The pleating is only on the back and typically finer than this. Pleating a kilt is an art form all by itself and requires a lot of fabric. Those are just skirts.
Close enough.
i want to believe

Is this how Scotland was born?
Cute skirts. I'd wear it....
I salute our future!
"They'll never be femboys" Them:
Why are they being femboys for wearing a piece of clothing? Kilts are a thing and aren't seen as feminine, why should a skirt?
Because Americans are
stupidweird.As an American.... Yeah
