Bro. Mansour, I do know that parents as well as teachers have an obligation to ensure that their children and students observe simple dress codes. However, AIDS is a more serious epidemic and requires a more proactive and preventive approach rather than reducing it to the banning of miniskirts. Remember that the female pupils are victims of child-molesters in the garb of educators. Why can't the government enact laws to curb this shameful practice? I know of two instances (and I'm sure you do as well) involving two predatory perverts who were transfered to another school for having a sexual relationship with their female students. Guess what happened to their victims? Expelled! Is that justice? Is that a deterrent? So, my brother, miniskirt or no miniskirt, some teachers will continue to look upon their female students as "fringe benefits". That is a bigger problem! Best regards, Madiba.
