Why Does Going To Catholic School Make You Gay?

Sunny “girl kissser” Splosion went to Catholic school? Who would’ve guessed

[@phyrexian_dude4645]

The uniform helps to prevent bullying but just on first impressions. After the kids start to interact with each other and intuitively guess economic situations, there is where the actual rich assholes start to show their true face, mostly on the age range beyond 11. I know this because i used to be study in one of the giga elite schools and when they tryied to implement a charity program to help very poor families to get in, they got bullyied pretty hard and it got canceled quite shortly after.

[@CantusTropus]

What scumbags. I've never been poor (I don't think, anyway), but there's no excuse to make poor people's lives any harder than they already are.

[@LilChuunosuke]

Yeah, the uniforms "preventing bullying" was total BS. The kids at my school were mean as hell, but even the TEACHERS at my old Catholic school participated in the bullying. A lot of people here are saying that bullying was based on income bracket at their school, but in mine, there was a MASSIVE target on the backs of all the disabled kids, diagnosed or not. Students could openly mock their disabled classmates in front of their teachers with little to no repurcussions. Some teachers even openly admitted to attempting to get students they didn't like transferred out of the school district. A few of them were even caught falsifying test scores for students they didn't like in order to force them into failing the class. My brother only made it through middle school because my mom had to manually check my brother's scores on EVERY SINGLE ASSIGNMENT and fight with both the teachers and the principal to have his grades corrected. Thankfully, that school closed down because nobody wanted to pay their ridiculous tuition fees just to have their kids treated like garbage.

[@EriaAri]

I mean, if you want an honest, fullstop answer, it's because it's taboo and people, especially teens, like to be the counter culture. It happens in every generation and is a part of human nature. It also is because it's seen as taboo in catholic schools, which just makes it all the more tempting. Basically, it's the same reason the stereotype of the nice, sweet church girl being the freakiest, kinkiest girl around is so widespread.

Nah, uniforms don't actually make a difference. Official uniforms are prohibitively expensive for lower income families which means you have to buy cheaper alternatives that adhere to dress code as close as possible. That makes you stick out like a sore thumb and - you guessed it - leads to being bullied for being the poor kid who can't afford a "real uniform."

[@madelyneation]

[@HyattHyatt3179]

@@madelyneation I've seen this or that you can pay them off, or that everyone gets them for free. I think school uniforms are really neat, and honestly you can often see more individuality in how people style their uniform or themselves when they have a uniform than you do when people are just wearing their normal clothes. So the expression argument is just untrue. I don't think it'd stop bullying personally, because kids will always find something to be mean about. But I don't see why they shouldn't be a thing either. I would have liked it back when I was in school

[@OhitsONnow]

How does this make a difference? If you're poor and you can't afford to wear brand name shit the other kids are gonna notice and make fun of you for being a poor who can't afford "REAL" clothes.

But with public schools was some kind of uniform deal you could make

[@Merilirem]

@@OhitsONnow Because it creates an extra visible line between the students. Instead of people wearing normal clothing, you have the people who can't afford uniforms being very noticeably below even those who would otherwise be wearing relatively cheap clothing. It creates an extreme us vs them scenario by pointing out who is too poor to afford a uniform and making everyone else feel closer together because they are literally in uniform.

I know everyone is talking about how school uniforms are bad because of the pricing and stuff.

So if you're someone who is INSECURE about the way you're body is Shaped/Looks then sadly you will be bullied for the way the uniform fits on you.

[@EndoftheBeginning17]

When I was in highschool, in the 1980's the Catholic school girls had no problem with insecurity (most kids didn't. Social anxiety didn't exist as it does today. Yes girls got insecure when they turned 11 - 12 - but by the time they were 14 - 16 they got over it if they were already developed physically) (Note: there was no social media but there were computer games that were multiplayer (but no online connections, the internet didn't exist)). Instead the girls would do everything possible to show as much leg as possible, skirts were hemmed to the top and some above the max hem length. A lot of girls took sewing class so they could adjust their own blouses to be more form fitting, they wanted to stand out. and they were supposed to wear close toe shoes like penny loafers, most wore pumps and a few wore heels, I even remeber a couple wearing stillettos when they were out and about. These girls wanted to get noticed.

Its a spectrum after all and once your comfortable with your place on it, you can end up being who you really are. Often more than those whose culture stood in the way. Being forced into it kinda just counters the other bullshit that made you think you weren't.

Fuck. I can't explain how much I disagree. I get the bullying argument, it just wasn't the case where I went to "high school" (high school doesn't exist in my country). Learning how to express oneself through clothing is important for the future. Kids will find a way to bully that isn't clothing based, they just need the excuse. This means poor families can buy cheap clothes which is also a bonus. Where I live the difference between rich and poor is not that big, so I guess it didn't really impact me... I'm also very anti-conformist, which doesn't help

[@EndoftheBeginning17]

Back in the 70's and 80's bullying was never really clothing based in noral schools, because all the parents bought cheap clothes for the kids, in that regard we were equals and the kids all knew it. Bullying was about perceived weirdness, like being a nerd or geek, was enough to get you tormented all day long, being a straight A student, head first into the garbage can, had trouble communicting, couldn't stand up for yourself because you were taught to turn the other cheek (worst bit of advice I ever learned)

[@KhronicD]

@@EndoftheBeginning17 I can confirm I was both a "cool kid" and a "nerd" when I was in school. it depended on who you asked. And just to be clear, I graduated high school in the mid 90's. So I was of that era. I never really got bullied in earlier education, partially because I was a "bad" kid who acted out for various reasons. But I definitely got bullied once I got to middle/high school years. And the thing that addled my brain about it for a long time, until I figured it out, was that the people that bullied me did so BECAUSE I was so accepted by multiple groups of varying people. I had nerd friends, I had jock friends, and I was somewhat of a mediator between the various groups. Even that was something people bullied me about. 30+ years later, I can look back and see it was really just envy.

[@Polychorus]

When you're going through puberty, you tend to form attractions to whatever kinds of people are around you. If you're only surrounded by people of the same gender, you're more likely to become gay or realize you're closeted. A similar thing applies with being trans, where being exclusively surrounded by people of the same gender can emphasize any feelings of not belonging that might be gender based.

Anyway, when they decided to implement this for our class, it was so much fucking easier, and better, than buying 5 sets of uniforms (per year) for a Mon to Fri schedule, since ironing them is a hassle. "Bullying students for being or looking poor" just isn't a trend for us. Bullying was... pretty random, preying on the weak, anyone that looks like they don't have friends, looks weird, acts weird, unique mannerisms, or even fellow bullies. In other words, it was prison on child difficulty. Yeah a good number of students were openly gay, although student relationships on campus just weren't a thing. If one was in a relationship, it's from someone outside of school. Thank goodness college is where people matured and were actually nice people.
