Why Dress Code SUCKS!

The things I don't like about Dress Code are the time it wastes in the morning, that it makes it so you can't express yourself with your clothes, and how it makes people feel not as individual. I don't like the school dress code because it causes such a hassle in the morning. I barely have time to get dressed in the morning. I don't even have time for breakfast. And almost all my clothes have some kind of design. I only have about 5 pairs of clothes that is allowed in dress code. It can be very hard to find anything in the morning and I barely have time to get dressed and I am too tired getting up as it is. I can't wake up any earlier. I've tried going to sleep earlier but I just can't, I just lay in my bed wide awake until it's the normal time I go to sleep.

People should be allowed to express themselves and the dress code denys people of that. I like to wear things that fit my personality while the clothes in dress code are so bland. Black, white, and grey are so depressing they feel like prison colors. Clothes can be reflections of people's personality and interests. When you are forced to wear certain things it feels like you are repressing people's personality. Wearing clothes you chose gives people a sense of individuality.

I want to be able to just grab anything from my closet and put them on so I can go to school like I used too. Now I always have to search for my clothes. They say that they made the dress code to help but it gets in the way much more than it has ever helped me. The dress code clothing can also be very uncomfortable. But a lot less than when I went to Mount Vernon where you had to tuck your shirt in. Not having to do this is probably the only thing I like about dress code.

When people wear what they want it can give them a sense of self confidence by letting them feel like an individual. Dress Code can make people feel depressed and it makes it feel hard to express themselves. Or to have a personality of their own. People can also feel like they need to express themselves. Because dress code blocks a feeling of expression of yourself. I want to have dress code removed.

  1. Tahir I see where you were going with your essay however if you keep it organized according to the introduction paragraph it might make it easier. I only want 3 reasons why you either like, dislike or have mixed feelings about the dress code.
