Schoolgirls Forced to Go Braless

(Singapore) When I was going to high school, there weren't any titillating controversies of this nature.

Malaysia Star:

Students of a secondary school in Singapore, who were recently found to be wearing coloured bras to school, were forced to go braless, reported China Press.

According to the daily, the school only allowed students to wear white, beige and light grey bras.

The daily said most of the affected students were caught wearing coloured bras during a Physical Education class

They were forced to remove the bras in the bathroom, which were then confiscated.

It appears that all the Singaporean schools have confronted the colored bra issue, but other schools handle the "problem" differently. Examples are: one school sells new bras and one school sends the girls home to get a new bra.

I'm at a loss to understand why colored bras are prohibited, however, school officials must feel strongly about the issue. Nonetheless, I do believe that a classroom full of braless high school girls would probably be a greater distraction than a room full of girls wearing colored bras. And, naturally, the whole subject makes one wonder if there are restrictions on other undergarments.
