There are countries with no school uniforms and what's appropriate and what's showing too much legs is also very varied between cultures.
In Iran people would compare these girls to prostitutes while in Brazil people would pity them for the long socks and closed shoes that are much too hot for their climate.
Women in Iran used to wear mini skirts out in public back in the1970s
Also, the temperature can get as hot in Iran as it does in Brazil
Iran is hotter than Brazil but also drier. I've been there and experienced 42°C. http://iran.leowandersleb.de/ if you are curious.
Still, I'm pretty sure that's how people in Iran and Brazil would think of this picture if they assumed it was taken in their respective country.
So why do think that people in the northern west hemisphere are interpreting this level of leg showing as depravity?
If my daughter chose to dress like this, I'd probably have no problem with it but if she hated the tie and felt insecure in anything but trousers, I'd hate to send her to an institution that forced this stuff on her.
Oki thanks for the personal input,
If skirts were a mandatory part of their uniform, that would be an infringement on their human rights, and I hope that there’s no such rules at any schools
But finding the root cause for this interpretation of ‘depravity’ is what makes me most curious
