Uniform

As a student I feel uniforms are boring. I love being cool, but formal dresses never let you be one. I agree that a uniform is a sign of equality but it is not necessary for equality to be reflected in outfits. It should be in our thoughts. It seems that this argument is similar to this statement: “To show equality we should all stay in a single storied house with only two bedrooms, a simple wood carving and four windows.’’

Do you think this is sensible? Would anyone love to wear any of those tight fitting school shoes? Hence it is wise to let the children wear clothes that are comfortable. We do not look cool in school uniforms. A sensible conclusion is that if you ever want to look cool then never ever wear a school uniform!
