It’s not easy being a female high school student these days.

You try to be witty with your senior quote and you nearly get suspended from graduation.

You open your yearbook and find some pieces of clothing have suddenly been Photoshopped on to your person.

Or, if you attend Menihek High School in Canada, you get sent home because administrators say your exposed bra straps are distracting everyone with a penis.

Such was the case this week for a number of angry Menihek students, with Danielle Matias saying the school dress code is sexist because it asks women to wear clothing based on the reactions of men.

"We were actually given a presentation at the beginning of every school year, and they were telling us, ‘Well, you can’t wear certain types of shirts because they’re afraid that male students will take it the wrong way," Matias says.

There does seem to be nothing wrong with that line of thinking, huh?
