DD and her school skirt

[BaconAndAvocado]

DD14 insists on rolling up her school kilt until it’s extremely short. Under duress, she will roll it down but it’s a battle.
DH goes mad, saying that men will look at her. Her response this morning was, “No man gets to dictate what I wear.”
When I drive past her school, a few girls are wearing their skirts extremely short too but many aren’t. I don’t think the school insists they roll their kilts down.
I drive her to school but she walks home alone.
Am I worrying needlessly?

I hate the look of the rolled up skirts personally. However, I really object to the suggestion that they are somehow asking to be harassed if they do that.

To put this simply... when you do things to show off, you will get attention, and it will not always what you expected. Teenagers may not exactly understand it yet, but it baffles me that adults still don't.
