A photo of her note was uploaded to Imgur and Reddit this week. It reads, “As the summer months approach please remember…girls wear shorts in order to stay cool when hot. Not for you. We are 17-years old, stop sexualizing our bodies. If my shorts make you uncomfortable, YOU are the problem.”
The photo was captioned: “I go to a prep school where dress code is enforced, today this was found around campus.” It has received more than 9,000 views since it was posted three days ago. The gesture was the latest example of teenage girls protesting their school dress codes with a silent but powerful method: Signs.
