[quote:Anonymous Coward 79206241:MV80NTQ5MTMzX0VDNEUxNEU2] What have they done to Canada? A wave of Instagram posts had declared Wednesday as the day for boys to wear skirts to school in support of the cause. “The movement has two objectives,” Renaud, 15, told the Montreal Gazette on Friday. “One is to fight against the hypersexualization of women’s bodies, to allow them to wear what they want, and break the codes of our society — to stop saying there’s a gender for everything, this is for boys and this is for girls. “It’s also to attack dress codes that are deemed sexist and degrading for people who wear skirts, and all parts of a uniform that could be seen as non-egalitarian.” https://montrealgazette.com/news/local-news/boys-wear-skirts-to-school-to-protest-sexism [/quote]

What have they done to Canada?
A wave of Instagram posts had declared Wednesday as the day for boys to wear skirts to school in support of the cause.
“The movement has two objectives,” Renaud, 15, told the Montreal Gazette on Friday. “One is to fight against the hypersexualization of women’s bodies, to allow them to wear what they want, and break the codes of our society — to stop saying there’s a gender for everything, this is for boys and this is for girls.
“It’s also to attack dress codes that are deemed sexist and degrading for people who wear skirts, and all parts of a uniform that could be seen as non-egalitarian.”
