What was so bad about Stephanie’s outfit that she was being punished for it? Her exposed collarbone. Her mother was called to the school but even after giving her daughter a scarf, the outfit was still deemed inappropriate.
This may have been the last straw though, as the Kentucky students’ latest effort to fight back may actually get the dress code changed.
Oh my God, you can’t even see her fucking collarbone! I had to squint to find it! WHAT THE FUCK.
SERIOUSLY? Swap out the jeans for a pair of slacks, and I’d wear that to WORK.
this just in: girls are not allowed to have bones. you must become invertebrates. ooze to class, leaving a trail of slime
Mights as well just start putting a gaint cabord box over our daughters.

I got my period the night before my first marathon. So I ran without a tampon.
Have you ever run a marathon on the first day of your period? I got my flow the night before the London Marathon, and it was extremely painful. It would be my first marathon, and I remember already feeling so nervous for it. I spent a full year enthusiastically training hard, but I had never actually practiced running on my period.
I thought through my options. Running 26.2 miles with a wad of cotton wedged between my legs just seemed so absurd. I honestly didn’t know what to do. I knew that I was lucky to have access to tampons and Thinx. I was fortunate to be part of a society that has somewhat normalized menstruation — as long as there’s no visible evidence.
A marathon is in itself a centuries-old symbolic act. Why not use it as a means to draw light to my sisters who don’t have access to tampons and, despite cramping and pain, hide menstruation away like it doesn’t exist?

Zendaya’s quote about cultural appropriation should be required reading
Thanks to the Internet, we’ve never had more style inspiration at our fingertips. But inspiration, the fashion industry has found, can be a tricky thing, often veering into cultural appropriation. Luckily, we have Zendaya to clear it all up — who recently told Nylon exactly how we can avoid appropriation.

“The condition of our sex is so deplorable that it is our duty to break the law in order to call attention to the reasons why we do so.” - Emmeline Pankhurst, founder of the Women’s Social and Political Union, the leading militant suffrage group in Great Britain from 1903 to 1917
