You couldn't go to school in anything but a dress. There was an experiment in allowing pants on Fridays but administration objected to the tight jeans some of the high school girls wore so it was dropped.

When I got to Duncanville...OMG NOT AN ACTOR!!! LOL<br /><br />When I got to Duncanville (7th grade) we could wear jeans...just not jeans with a double seam on the outer seam. I never figured that one out. I was really comfortable in D'ville, and don't remember ever being teased there. Well, not for that. My over the top love of Star Trek, that got me teased ;)<br /><br />Thumperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02154314376352066709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3652957.post-10640110375705051302015-03-16T21:05:59.141-07:002015-03-16T21:05:59.141-07:00Never had trouble with clothing because when I was...Never had trouble with clothing because when I was a kid, dresses were all girls had unless you went in baby coveralls! Pants were not even sold for girls! I never had a choice till I started working and then pant suits became a style and we were allowed to wear them.

Had you been here while we were in grade school, you wouldn't have liked it: dress code said girls had to wear dresses. Elementary girls COULD wear shorts under our dresses, and indeed, we HAD to be wearing shorts in order to play on the monkey bars. Some time during junior high the dress code was relaxed Taz's mom Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539968189522280982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3652957.post-70052019216413549652015-03-16T13:36:47.117-07:002015-03-16T13:36:47.117-07:00Sounds like a lot of the things I went through wit...Sounds like a lot of the things I went through with my mom, Karen.

After 5th grade, girls had to wear dresses. School policy1 I hated it. My senior year may not my last tine to wear a dress, but it was close. We walked to school! Period, no discussion. It was a block away. the wind blowing up those skirts in winter was not fun! but we did it. Now, I do not own a dress.
