Wow, she's 19, that means that when she was 12 and in middle school it was around 2013. I highly doubt that in 2013 girls were only wearing dresses and against those who wore pants. My god she acts like she grew up in the 1920's and girls were banned from wearing pants. I mean, in 2005 I was in middle school and it was rare not to see a girl in pants. Did people think she was a lesbian or wanted to be a man? Where did she grow up because even in the bible thumping south women still wear pants, I have so many questions.

She's trans-historical you bigot, don't erase her time travel experience.

edit: spelling

I had the exact same thought. Even back in kindergarten (1997) in a really conservative area, pretty much every girl wore pants all the time.

I just can't see in 2013 girls finding wearing pants as strange even if the school requires it. Most women, female celebs wear pants, even more so than dresses, and I can't believe she would be the only girl at her school to want to wear pants.. At my school girls were suppose to wear knee high skirts but majority showed up in pants so the school made wearing skirts optional.

I grew up in the 80s in a conservative country, and I wore trousers. What is this comic artist on about..?

I can kind of believe it. It's tagged #uniform which seems to make girls weirdly judgemental about what others wear to school. At mine it was the total opposite - girls got made fun of for wearing the skirt instead of the trousers.

Actually-- if you look at the comments on the post, it was in a religious school. I had a super similar experience when I went to a Catholic school for a couple years as a kid, believe it or not. The girls who were at all GNC and wore shorts or pants instead of skirts, were bullied.

The messed up part is the idea that this experience should make you trans, or not at all your gender.
