No to school uniform in schools! I am a student myself we do not have school uniforms, and that I am happy for. I could never imagine putting on a uniform before school everyday. It would be so dull. You want to be special. You want to feel like you belong somewhere. If you dress in a certain way and someone else does too then you feel like you have a connection with that person.

These are some of the main ideals of beauty in our society today, unfortunately more and more youths suffer from long depressions and anxiety. Also things as diseases and anorexia becomes more common which isn't a good thing for our society.
