So I take it you believe children should also not be forced to wear school uniform, right? They are not our accessories.

No. Kids aren't intended to express their parents or their own values at school in their clothing. A standard can apply.

How is a school uniform a "standard"? Why are you imposing your "standards" on children by forcing them to dress a certain way?

Dress codes are a part of society & vary from institution to institution. In schools, smart & practical & age appropriate is needed.

Lol! Why is a tie needed? Why should millions of kids be forced to wear a tie. They are not your accessory, stop imposing things on them.

Smartness. I'm not arguing that all dress codes are wrong so pointing out that I only object to some is not a 'gotcha.'

No, I'm not claiming that. I understand that you thought I was but I have now clarified so no point in continuing to argue against it.

I am claiming that people have the right to live their own lives according to illiberal values but not to force them on others.
