ONE love, blood, life
While as a general principle I am strongly against brainwashing teenagers by forcing ideas into their heads (e.g., religion) and forcing them to wear uniforms, I can also see the merit of the arguments in favour of uniforms.
If we're going to go enforcing sartorial standards on kids, I think we should probably start by taking a look in the mirror.
The deterioration in sartorial standards amongst adults in recent years is absolutely disgraceful. If you look, for example, at movies from the 1950's or even look at photos from that era, and compare them to today, you will see what I am talking about.
There was a time when adults, particularly and especially the middle class and the upper class, dressed properly and appropriately, and personally I'm all for bringing it back.
I admit, I haven't always lived up to these high standards myself.
I'm thinking of making a New Year's Resolution never to be seen in public without wearing a suit, preferably tailormade. Tailormade suits are not necessarily expensive, by the way. I bought a very decent one recently in Malaysia for only €250 or so.
It's about time someone set some decent standards.
It's about time gracious living came back, and our vulgar common modern mass produced consumerism was set aside.
