Schoolboys invited to wear skirts in class

A row has broken out in a French city after school authorities invited male pupils to wear skirts in class.

Boys at 27 schools in Nantes were given the option of replacing their trousers with a skirt for one day.

The idea, named 'Lift the Skirt', was the idea of pupils themselves and was sanctioned by the city's education chiefs.

Boys who preferred not to wear a dress could instead wear a sticker supporting the event, which reads "I am fighting against sexism, are you?"

Olivier Vial, president of the conservative UNI party said: "We'll do any old nonsense in the name of equality.

"This move is inspired by the Day of the Skirt, whose original aim was to allow women to express their femininity in environments where it was often difficult. But this is just denying feminine and masculine identity."

And Tugdual Derville tweeted: "It's not April Fool's Day. It's not a wind up. In our schools, with our expensive taxes: confusion of genders."

Why not?

My guess it is that it is just a subtle way to find future recruits for one or more Alternative Lifestyles.

Skirts? Not here.

Why not?

I Will wear shorts around home, and VERY occasionally while on vacation and my wife tells me to 'dress more casually'.

But in general. No, I don't wear shorts either.

And, it is worth noting since we are on topic.

Last week, two of the men who served during church on Sunday, were wearing shorts. One was serving Communion and taking up the offering, the other did the announcements at the end of the service.

The day before, one of the preachers showed up while we were prepping the dinner for the ladies, wearing shorts.

I'm sorry. I couldn't do that.

I won't even go to the dollar store in shorts by choice.
