Let's not forget the Christian extremists who thought bombing abortion clinics was doing God's work.

One minute she's got naked shoulders and then the next she's Miley Cyrus. Won't someone please think of the children?

I just find it silly how worked up both sides get. Yes it's in the rules. But they are silly. Ok it's in the rules, put on on a throwover sweater and STFU already.

If you want the rules changed, get it on the agenda at the PTO events and take it through the conventional channels to address policy.

im guessing heavy Mormon area, not really shocking at all

That. It's Utah, Mormons are decent people, but their view on sex and skin skews very much towards Islam. They're uber-conservative and that dress would be inappropriate for the many schools in the state. Just change it. If you live there you know what you're getting into. Adapt or move.

Meh, if you have a dress code, you have to be able to express it in words, on paper, and have it as concrete as possible. Should someone have spaghetti straps with a plunging neckline in high school? No. (Not in my opinion.) So, simplest rule: "no visible cleavage, shoulders must be covered." 7 words. "No legs showing above where your fingertips reach to. No visible underwear." Concise, not ambiguous. Any ambiguity in dress codes leads to problems.

That's a simple, classy, modest dress appropriate for someone in high school. She looks great. It's a shame that Mormon dress code standards tend to lean more toward those of the Taliban and ISIS.

First thought was that it was a tube top or strapless.

After seeing the picture though, what a dirty slut...

My favorite part of the article:

On her part, Gabi suggested that instead of forcing girls to cover up their bodies, we as a society should teach boys not to treat them as sex objects created for their pleasure.

Does any of your guys remember the sex objects lesson we obviously all got?

This kind of stuff kills me. My wife and I worked outside of Cincinnati for a summer and the place had a "no tank top" rule. They didn't disclose it till we got there. We were like wtf? It was either buy her new clothes or leave. We packed up and were ready to pull away when they backed down. Guess it was too close to the season opener to find replacements. I wonder how many people they had to apologize to for having to see her bare shoulders.

The obvious solution is to not allow dances at the school: hasn't anyone explained to the school administrators about the immorality of dancing.

Here's the first post at Google I found on the subject:
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Not every dancer is immoral, but every dance is a provocation to immorality and sensuality. Dancing would not be so popular and fascinating if women danced together. No dance hall would be able to keep its doors open very long. Its appeal is sexual and immoral. [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The dance floor is a place of immodest liberty and suggestive motions of the body. The passionate embracing, nudity, and familiarity are commonplace there. And, think of it! Married women allow men to take liberties on the dance floor which would be considered criminal if attempted on the street or in the home. At the dance proper standards of behavior are forgotten. Surely it is no place for a Christian, though many professing Christians dance, but remember they are just professors. First Timothy 5:6 tells us, "But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth." [/FONT]

Wow it sure is fun to look at some aspect of other cultures, assume anything different from our own is inferior, but its really just cultural ignorance. If it works for them, its none of our business.
