    School Uniforms are a Good Idea.

    Many people say that uniforms are a good thing because of the fact that everyone looks the same, people will not compare each other, and think that someone has more money or better clothes than someone else. But if everyone is wearing the same thing, then wouldn't it be easier to compare people? Say there were two girls, both wearing khakis and a white collared shirt. What if one girl didn't look as good in the pants as the other girl. It would be easier for someone to say, "That girl looks terrible in those pants" because they are looking at how much better they look on the other girl. And say that that girl gets bullied because of how she looks in those pants. She probably wouldn't have worn those pants if she was given a choice because she was probably aware of how they looked on her. Most likely she has lots of clothes that look good on her, but the uniform isn't one of them. I think that bullying is inevitable in schools today. So if uniforms would only hurt the situation, then why bother?
