Abstract
It is my experience as a mother, a teacher and a gender researcher that limiting the choices available to individuals based on whether they happen to be born male of female is common practice. Let's not assume it's commonsense. The conditions of a society and the condition of individuals within that society are not mutually exclusive. School uniforms are one of the many symbols of institutionalised gender difference and gender inequality-in our society, in ourselves and in our interpersonal relationships.
