 Student called out for not wearing bra
A teenager who attends Beaumont High School in Southern California discovered that her choice of undergarments was actually subject to her teacher’s approval.

“BHS is so out of line,” Remy Altuna wrote on Twitter last Wednesday. “Now they want to dress code you for not wearing a bra. My underwear is none of there (sic) business.”

Altuna had gone most of the day in her black bodysuit and baggy jeans without comment from teachers or the security guards who typically watch for dress code violations, she tells Yahoo Style. But when she went to the school office to get a paper signed, an assistant vice principal pulled her aside and told her to put on a jacket.

“She said that my shirt was low cut; then she asked if I was wearing a bra,” Altuna says. “She went on to say that because I wasn’t wearing a bra, she didn’t want people to think anything bad of me or talk inappropriately or have anything bad to say.”

Yahoo Style has reached out to BHS for comment and will update if we hear back.

The Beaumont High School dress code does not specify anything about bras, but says this about shirts: “Tops must cover all parts of undergarments and shall not be low cut or revealing.” Altuna said she didn’t feel she needed a bra with her top, and if she’d worn one, she would have been dress-coded because it would have shown. While she does not think her outfit was inappropriate, she said what happened to her is part of a pattern.

“This year it just seems like they’re really out for blood, looking for anything,” Altuna says. It would be one thing if they were dress coding boys and girls equally, but she notes that girls have been the biggest targets, while the boys’ violations, such as ripped jeans, are overlooked.

Another student at Altuna’s school also took to Twitter to complain that girls were being disciplined for their outfits while boys who made s3xual comments about them were not.
