This story sort of fits here, just trying to add content.

Some backstory, my old school used to provide new uniforms every year for certain athletics teams. For some reason staring two years before all uniform ordering was decided by the head coach for a completely different sport. He had a reputation for ordering all the girls teams the skimpiest clothes he could find in the catalog.

My sport had a boys team and girls team under one coach. The boys team were issued knee length shorts and jerseys, the girls team was given skintight spandex leotards. ( I think he knew a girl on our team really hated the things because he stopped ordering them as soon as she graduated) The first year we just sucked it up and wore them. The second year my coach dug out old uniforms from storage for the girls team and while we were required to wear the official uniform we just wore school branded clothes over it for competition.

So next season rolls around and there is a new rule, the girls team are no longer permitted to wear any clothing not part of the official uniform during competitions. Also the new uniforms include a pair of shorts that are slit all the way to the waist band. The boys uniforms have not changed. These are the official uniforms and we have to order them for the teams, but there is no rule saying the boys can’t wear extra clothes so the boys team put down their clothing sizes for the skimpy shorts and the girls ordered the knee length shorts in their size. The boys team competing in the uniforms caused enough awareness that all uniform decisions were handed back to the individual sports coaches.

    just out of curiosity, how did you end up on that server? It’s not one of the common ones. Was that created out of a specific subreddit?

      This one said it was open for people to hop on, figured I’d help lighten the load for the bigger servers since they were expecting heavy traffic once the blackout got started
