My wife, a Moslem, went to a Catholic high school and at first this post sounds like a throwback to that era when the headmistress, a nun, would do rounds carrying a ruler to see whose skirts are too short.

The difference with the case of Makassar: that was a private school, and those who went there (Moslems included) knew what to expect. Those who did not agree can go find another school.

Makassar, on the other hand, is not a privately-owned city. It’s not owned by Moslems or to be more exact, Islamists. So what the hell are they thinking with this law governing students in public and private schools alike. What if a student does not want to use a long skirt? Does she have to leave town?

Tell me again why this is not a form of Balkanization (or How to Disintegrate Indonesia 101).

How totally pathetic – because of some dirty minded men skirts to the ankles. Now if these dirty minded men could control their filthy thoughts skirts to the knee would be fine – but they would be Moslems eh? R. Patterson

it needs more cloth to make such a skirt. and more money to spend.
imagine if 1.000.000 student had to spend more Rp 10.000 each , in order to fulfilled the regulation: 10.000.000.000.
(it cost at least Rp 40.000-80.000 to make schoolgirl skirt, and more money to make “full lenght” skirt).
have you ever tought how much money were spent, just for making student outfit in Indonesia? boys n girls? from junior to high school or even kindergarden? every year?
and mostly student have more than one suit, oftenly two or three suit each student.
why don’t they spent the money to buy a book
or to pay the teacher properly.
think!!!

read the article carefully people. The article said “The issue of skirt length appears to have aroused some controversy. Muhammad Asmin says the matter has nothing to do with Islam, long skirts are not Islamic dress”. so comments by anonymous_alloy, ryan_dec, and R.Patterson had no relevance with the topic in mind. iting, decency cannot be calculated by cash amounts.

Hey Jesse,
Just because he doesn’t admit it is related to Islam, doesn’t
me it unrelated. It is clear from the context that it is related
to Islam, but it would be harder for Asmin to defend it from
a religious point of view, since it is supposedly a secular
country. Anybody in the country understand it is related
to Islam.

i dont think so henry.
in Islam, women must wear a veil, and clothes covering head to toe except the face and palm.

now, a school girl’s skirt length that must be 3 cm’s below the knee, does not the very least suffice the Islamic dress code.

I think you just suffered from Islamophobia that’s all. stop the prejudice. peace.

well, it seems that everything related to decency is immediately associated with Islam these days. and everything related to porn, vulgarity, and indecent behaviour is also immediately associated with secularism. now, that’s a simple choice isn’t it, people. choose decency and restraint, or vulgarity and sexual freedom (in a negative sense).

Hi Guys,

why not just let people be people, live the way they wish and do the things they feel are right……
I travel the world and enjoy to see people in their own countries doing their own thing… One thing though… when in Rome do as the Romans do. i.e. when you emigrate to one of my countries ( I hold triple nationality) leave your local ways at home.
you can always believe in your Gods and other BS but if you choose to accept a better life in a better place live by the way the locals live…

by the way… I arrived at this site via a search engine while looking for a school girl skirt for my 45 year old wife to wear to a sex party we are attending on new years eve for over 40 people who enjoy the perverted view of a Catholic school girl skirt. Note though we dress our wifes up in it for pure, harmless, sexual pleaseure and delight… I guess most of your Islamic boys wouldn’t understand that.. but what the hell, i dont understand why your pilots didnt learn to fly before they got behind the wheel of a couple of planes a few years ago…. it would have saved a lot of public outcry and trouble…
