Double standard?
I was reading the rules for youth camp that my son will be going to.
The girls are to wear skirts a couple inches below the knees and the boys pants. Why is ok for a girl to wear skirts past their knees but boys can't wear long shorts past their knees??
Double standard?

I'd probably wear long shorts and call them short pants.

Funny, the long shorts, or short pants, are far more modest than the skirts.
I say make both full length and take the guess work, and the inching rebellion, right out of it.
