Students at a New Zealand school are fighting back, using the power of media, after they were told their skirt hemlines were too short for school.

And the reason why they were too short? Because the boys and male staff would become distracted having sexy thoughts about the girls. On top of that, girls that violated the rule would get detention. The girls would be punished for provoking thoughts in the minds of the boys and male staff. What?

Why are skirts usually the required uniform for girls anyway if they are so “distracting” in the first place?
