Stumbled upon an interesting article while I was checking out Ningin this afternoon. nt2099 talks about how many schools in Japan are starting to offer slacks as an option for females as opposed to always wearing skirts year round. Is this the beginning of a trend away from cute Japanese schoolgirl skirts?
I polled you all a few months ago about whether or not Japanese schoolgirls should have to wear skirts in the winter. 123 of you said yes they should have to, while 80 said no. I suspect those 80 probaly do have some sort of Japanese schoolgirl fetish because I doubt they would be wearing shorts in the winter like the girl to the right.
Loading ...You would think that Japanese schoolgirls would be totally for this change, however many actually prefer the skirts. Second year student Chika Takami says,
Slacks are easier to move around in, but there’s a very strong image that schoolgirls wear skirts. And school is the only time in our lives that we can wear these uniforms.
At Sapporo Municipal Minamigaoka Junior High School, slacks have actually replaced skirts for female uniforms for the majority of the year. Females will be able to wear the skirts during the 3 hottest months in the year, but will be required to wear a uniform similar to the male uniforms for the other months. The female uniforms are to the left.
While it is still early, we can expect this trend to grow as functionality will replace the schoolgirl image. I think the younger girls will be the first to really be required to wear the slacks as it is easier for them to accept change, especially they grow up wearing slacks in school. NT2099 via Mainichi.
I think they should at least have a choice
stumbled ^_^
i think they should have pants cause it will be cold during the winter and they shouldn’t wear skirts they might get a cold
It depends on what they want to do. I love girls in skirts but skirts in the winter doesn’t make much sense. Unless they are immune to sickness or wear really high socks. I heard those popular oversized socks girls like to wear are especially warm.
I think it’s about tolerance.
Some people can stand wearing little even when the weather’s extremely cold, while some put on layers of clothing even when it’s not so cold.
So, in the end, it’s the person who bears the consequences of his/her actions, which is why he/she has to be given the freedom of choice.
at my school. while walking in winter, we wore pants under the skirts but by the time we get to school. we had to take the pants off T.T
I think it’s stupid to get rid of the skirts in favour of trousers, or offer girls the choice. If you wear a skirt every day and your legs are bare, you get used to the cold. If you wear trousers it’s very hard to go back to skirts unless it’s the middle of summer.
I have to wear a skirt for school. We’re not allowed tights, just ankle socks, so my legs get cold. But I’m soon used to it. During the Christmas holidays I wear jeans pretty much all the time. Then first day back at school I have to get my legs out again and guess what, they’re freezing!
The funny thing is, when I asked my ex-girlfriend about the subject, she said she wanted to wear a short skirt in the winter. I asked why she wore a short skirt in the winter, and she said because it looks cute. Then I asked why it was popular to wear a longer skirt in the summer, she said because it looks cute. It only makes sense I guess!!!??? You have to live in Japan to understand that nothing is the way it should be.
I wonder where i could buy da japenesegirl skirts in Boston.
I think slacks should be an option, i wear skirts year-round (my religion) and i know how cold it gets!!!! i couldn’t imagine having to wear short skirts and walk to school in the middle of winter!!!
while I also think the uniforms look cute, I find it disturbing to what extend the schoolgirl image is exploited in Japan. They’re in every manga, anime, sex film, star photobook.
But hell, those slacks look unattracktive!
im from japan, and well school girl uniforms like our skirts are really cute but sometimes my friends and i would sometimes like to wear pants! i think that we should have a choice to wear our skirts or pants whenever we like, it would seem to make sense scince the school isnt isnt blamed for us catching a cold anyway! :3
thats all i have to say <3
Thank you for doing this. I really needed this as our marriage is going through a rough time. I read the day 1. I am sometimes not patient but this will certainly help me to control my attitudes. I am doing this alone (with God off course)as my husband will not do it. Pray for us so that the Lord can work our marriage. With God everything is possible.

Most schools will probably offer an option.
The majority of girls will choose skirts for the hotter seasons because, obviously, they’re cuter and we girls do adore cute things(mostly.) However, many girls will opt the slacks during the colder seasons(which isn’t too long in Japan, to the relief of skirt-chasers.) On the flip side, schoolgirls can simply wear a warm pair of stockings, which many (irl) do.
