Will uniforms stop sexual harassment

Answer 1

No. Being a bully comes from something dirty inside. Changing what you wear will not change your heart and mind. If that worked, then we could just tear down all the prisons and force former inmates to wear uniforms. Just don't let them dress like murderers, thieves, addicts, batterers, etc. However, there is no way to identify criminals from their clothing. Unlike in the movies, bad people don't all wear masks and striped jumpsuits. Most try to blend in so they can be more effective at committing crimes.

Uniforms are only a short-range solution that can do more harm than good in the long run. You don't want to send the message that people not wearing uniforms are not worthy of protection from bullying. Being exposed only to those who look and think alike does nothing to make a person more tolerant of others.

Uniforms do have their places. If there is a lot of income class-based bullying, then making everyone wear uniforms may get rid of bullying over what people are wearing. Or when there are gang problems, then that could make it harder for members to identify their rivals, and harder for those not in gangs to accidentally dress as members of a particular gang.

Answer 2

No not really

I think that all though they don't get rid of all bullying, school uniforms cut down a lot of bullying. Although not all bullying comes from what you wear, I know that at many schools to do get bullied if you can't afford to wear the name-brand clothing.

Answer 3

Uniforms will not stop sexual harassment. They may make them lessen in the amount but it is unlikely they will eliminate them completely.

Answer 4

Yes and no, You wont be bullied for the clothes you wear, but you can still be bullied for a number of other reasons, such as being unpopular

Answer 5

In all honesty it may a little but there is always going to be bullies in the world and nothing can go through and stop that.

Answer 6

Based on what I observed going through school, it doesn't prevent bullying one bit - it just removes one cause of bullying: Someone who's clothes are "different".

Answer 7

yes because you wont get bullied about what your wearing because everyone is wearing the same as you

Answer 8

There is going to be less bullying if you have uniforms but that's my opinion. But sometimes it depends on what school it is.
