CRIMINAL CHARGES??

I have to say the kid is incredibly naive to think "school is a safe place where you can express yourself"

But then again...

Due to Bivens's discipline history and being insubordinate to administrators and faculty, he was arrested and charged.

This reminds me exactly how fucked up high school officials were. Drunk on such a small amount of power...

'Troublemaker' is a bully culture word.

Fuck the criminalization of teenage behavior.

Women? The past 40 years has opened up numerous avenues for personal achievement and expression for you to explore. Cultural restrictions on how you must behave have been mostly demolished.

Men? You still need to act 'like a man' or you're nothing. Fuck you.

I rock skirts a few times a week cause it's just the thing to do, and I don't mean kilts. A bunch of folk check me out, a few send out death glares. I'm thinking it's all about what people would look good in.

Criminal charges are beyond this whole thing. That's just ridiculous.

That said, I think I'm going to end up playing devil's advocate here. I keep hearing people talk about how men can't wear dresses or skirts. I don't understand why the pressure isn't back on keep gender roles clear instead of mixing and matching. Why is it okay for women to wear men's clothing? How about we stick with that question first?

Lets not forget here, the guy in question is a jackass.

That said, fuck everything about this.

It's funny because there is no LAW against dressing in a dress, and if mensrights is just going to get upset at social expectations a whole can of worms opens that mensrights probably doesn't want opened.
