How do you feel about the way schools often seek to control how girls dress

on the basis that it is just too distracting for the boys?

Personally i feel that objectifies young women and gives young men too little credit.
Just another example of women's bodies being considered offensive or inappropriate.

If you want to tell girls that they can't show their shoulders or belly or legs then you better make damn sure that the guys aren't allowed either.

I think the school is being realistic and not objectifying girls.
Let's face it, if a girl shows that much skin, a boy will be distracted, especially at such a young age when they're just beginning to get in touch with their sexuality.
So it's a good idea to dress modestly and keep a check on all the potential trouble.
