A few girls at a top-performing high school in NYC came up with a clever way to protest the ultra-conservative dress code. They tweeted their idea to a few friends, and thanks to the magic of social media, hundreds of young women showed up to class — scantily clothed. And now almost the entire female student body follows the slutty ritual every Wednesday, leaving school officials unable to come up with a way to squash it…
About a hundred teenage girls come into school on Wednesdays now, dressed… well… slutty!

At this school, Stuyvesant High School, they have strict rules just like many other schools, that state ‘students cannot expose shoulders, midriffs, lower backs, bras and undies’. Also, ‘dresses, skirts and shorts are not allowed to be shorter than fingertips while placed at their sides’.
These smart female students were tired of being brought into the Principal’s office for breaking the overly-strict dress code rules, so they got together and protested by starting “Slutty Wednesdays”.
9th grade student Lucy Greider, who says she’s been called to the Principal’s office numerous times since the dress code became more strict last Fall, says that ‘they way the students dress, shouldn’t overshadow how great the students do in school’. She told NY Post, “We work our asses off here, and school is about learning. Clothing is not important… A lot of the classrooms don’t have a/c’s and when it is 80 degrees outside and it is really hot, it’s perfectly OK to show a little skin.”
What’s funny about Slutty Wednesdays, is that the school can’t really do anything about the slutty day since so many girls are participating! It’s not like they can send a hundred girls home. Great work ladies!
