I was in an odd sort of mood today, so I searched for, & organized a bunch of different articles, on a variety of somewhat related topics.
The only thing I can say about this article, is Parenting done awesome!! Way to go, Mom!!

These 2 articles gave me a chuckle, why does anyone have an opinion on what other people are wearing? https://www.huffpost.com/entry/to-the-women-over-40-20-somethings_b_10223158?ncid=fcbklnkushpmg00000046

Did you know that it is legal for a woman to go topless anywhere that a man can, in New York, New Hampshire & all of Canada. https://www.mtlblog.com/lifestyle/montreal-woman-walks-topless-on-saint-catherine-street#
Here's another article on women's right to go topless. https://globalnews.ca/news/2729369/women-fight-for-the-right-to-bare-it-all-insist-sexual-double-standards-need-to-end/?sf27256974=1
I have to assume that Friday October 16 2015, was the slowest news day ever, otherwise why did Iggy Azalea end up in the news for wearing this outfit: https://www.huffingtonpost.ca/entry/iggy-azalea-low-cut-shirt-airport_n_5620ea4ae4b06462a13b951b?ri18n=true
I mean yeah, it's beautiful, but seriously? Why is it news?
Here's 2 articles on Zoe Saldana & her husband Carlos Saldana (formerly Perego) defying social convention on marital names.

I have been married 5 times, I only took my 1st husband's name because in 1977 in Ontario Canada, I needed his permission to keep my name. Hindsight being 20/20 I should have seen his refusal for the red flag that it was. My 4th husband took my name & 4 of my 5 children have my last name.
Wow, I sure miss the 60's & 70's, when they were getting rid of all the dress codes. I think the whole thing is ridiculous & wrong. If you aren't breaking whatever local public nudity laws apply where you live, it should be allowed. And that should apply equally to students & parents. The Oregon NOW (National Organization of Women) dress code is an okay one (link is about 1/2 way down the article), if one is actually necessary, which it really isn't or shouldn't be.

Here's a few more articles on dress codes: https://www.vox.com/the-goods/2018/9/13/17847542/students-waging-war-sexist-racist-school-dress-codes

This one at least seems slightly reasonable. https://www.insider.com/illinois-high-school-body-positive-dress-code-2017-8
