| Posted: 29 Sep 2020 07:57 AM PDT Online retailer Fashion Nova has been slammed over its new range of children's clothes, with critics claiming the outfits are 'too grown up' for your girls. Fashion Nova, which is based in the US but ships to the UK, unveiled the collection last week with promotional images showing young girls dressed in high heels, midriff-baring tops and evening dresses. The pieces are designed to match adult versions available on the site. Shoppers took to Twitter to share their distaste, saying it is 'inappropriate' to create such designs for children and use young girls 'dressed like adults' to advertise them. Others took issue with the names of the pieces, which include the $22.99 'Feeling Way Too Much' top and the $27.99 'Pulling Me Closer' pant.

 After seeing the latest offering from FashionNova, @Snow_Blacck took to Twitter to share her distaste for the clothes and how the children were dressed. The Twitter user accused the company of creating outfits that are 'way too grown up and inappropriate' for young children and shared screenshots of little girls in heels and short skirts Twitter user @Snow_Blacck, basked in the US, posted screenshots of some of the outfits, including a small sunkini set and a short skirt with matching crop top, expressing her distaste for the items. Both products appear to have been removed from the site. She wrote: 'NO FASHION NOVA. HELL NO. If you think these outfits are okay for little girls you're wild. 'These outfits are way too grown and inappropriate. These are not clothes for kids. These are grown club and brunch outfits. Stop it. Honesty where are y'all going with these outfits on? And heels? F***k no.' Items of clothes on sale range from biker short sets to dresses with see-through tulle skirts. Some of the clothes' names were taken from the adult versions, many of which are listed as the same price.   Others took issue with the names of the pieces, which include the $22.99 'Feeling Way Too Much' top (left) and the $27.99 'Pulling Me Closer' pant (right)  One Twitter user shared this photo from the Fashion Nova website, despairing over the outfit   Examples of Fashion Nova outfits called out on Twitter include this matching black set (left) and another worn with boots (right) 
  The names of the products concerned several people, with one person in particular suggesting that the names of some of the products were 'disgusting' One person added: 'Nah, I get that they're trying to match the adults outfits with mini outfits but having a kid in a two piece set and calling it 'romantic escape' is just disgusting.' The unhappy social media users suggested the outfits were inappropriate and that clothing companies and parents should 'let kids be kids'. While acknowledging that not all the products on the fashion retailer's site were the same and drawing attention to some of the 'kid friendly clothes', one person said dressing them in heels and the names of the outfits made it inappropriate.   Many people asked 'what happened to letting kids be kids' as they shared their horror at the latest clothing range which 'looks like they're playing dress up' However, not everyone agreed with their protestations about the new clothing range, with some people stating that they do not think the outfits are bad. Several people suggested they were able to find 'plenty of appropriate outfits' on the site, including sweatshirts and T-shirts. Fashion Nova declined to comment.   But not everyone agreed with the original tweet, with some coming to the company's defense to draw attention to the 'plenty of appropriate outfits' available on the site  |
| Fury over Swiss schools shaming girls who wear 'indecent' clothes - Daily Mail Posted: 30 Sep 2020 08:33 AM PDT A Swiss middle school has sparked fury for shaming girls who wear 'indecent' clothes, forcing some to wear a 'T-shirt of shame'. On Wednesday, several hundred demonstrators called on Swiss middle schools to stop shaming girls who violate dress codes banning 'indecent' clothes in a protest outside of Pinchat middle school. Crowds of mostly women and girls, some wearing shorts, miniskirts and crop-tops, gathered in front of the school on the outskirts of Geneva demanding an end to the 'sexism' of its dress code. 'Humiliation is not a form of education', one placard read, pictures in local media showed. Another demanded that school officials 'fix your sexism before you fix my outfit'.  Pictured: The 'T-shirt of shame' that Pinchat middle school in Geneva made pupils wear if they were deemed to be wearing clothing that was not appropriate. Translated, the T-shirt says: 'Pinchat college - I'm wearing an appropriate outfit!' with a thumbs-up symbol styled in the Facebook 'like' button The demonstration came in response to revelations last week that the school on the first day after the summer holidays had forced a number of students to put on an oversized t-shirt over clothing that was deemed inappropriate. The so-called 'T-shirt of Shame', which was imposed on two boys and 10 girls at the school, carries the name of the school and the words: 'I'm wearing an appropriate outfit' under a drawing of a thumbs-up in the style of a Facebook 'like' button. Speaking to Radio Television Suisse (RTS), 15-year-old Elodie spoke of her experience at a Geneva school when she was 11. 'I was 11 years old, I was in music class when the teacher looked at me and told me that my outfit was not appropriate for the class and that it could attract the eyes of the boys,' she recalled. 'I was wearing a bib jumper with jeans pants. You could only see my shoulders. He told me to put on my gown, explaining that if I came back dressed like that, he either fired me or he made me wear the shame t-shirt.' The story came to light after the mother of one of the girls complained to school authorities in Geneva canton, charging that the school administration had 'abused its power ... to humiliate, denigrate and stigmatise young girls', Swiss media reported.  Pictured: Pinchat middle school on the outskirts of Geneva. The school forced a number of students to put on an oversized t-shirt over clothing that was deemed inappropriate The school had responded by insisting that the rules requiring students to wear 'correct and appropriate' attire were applied 'independent of sex'. Critics however charge that such rules, which exist at most middle schools, rely on subjective assessments of what should be considered appropriate. Marjorie de Chastonay, a Geneva parliamentarian with the Greens, compared the use of the T-shirt to a 'public lynching aimed at stigmatising girls'.  Pupils at a school on the outskirts of Geneva (pictured, stock image) have protested outside their school after some were forced to wear a 'T-shirt of shame' after coming to school wearing clothing deemed 'indecent' Speaking to public broadcaster RTS last week, she slammed the decision to rely on 'an inadequate law that promotes structural sexism instead of on paedagogy that raises awareness among boys of the issue. Wednesday's protest demanded that Geneva school authorities force middle schools to halt stigmatising dress code enforcement. One sign at the protest asked: 'When will there be a T-shirt of shame for teachers who sexualise their students?' The Swiss protest came after girls across neighbouring France earlier this month staged protests by dressing 'provocatively' to denounce the 'sexism' of similar rules there.  |

| New York ‘Pink Tax’ ban goes into effect on Wednesday - SILive.com Posted: 30 Sep 2020 08:52 AM PDT  STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- New York retailers won't be able to charge different prices for similar products or services that are marketed to specific genders thanks to a new law that goes into effect on Wednesday prohibiting a "Pink Tax." The new measure -- signed into law by Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo as part of his fiscal year 2021 New York State Budget -- is defined as charging different prices for "substantially similar" consumer goods or services that are marketed to different genders. According to a city Department of Consumer Affairs study, the average price for goods -- from toys to personal care items and clothing -- was 7% higher for women than for men in 2015. Among other findings, the study, titled From Cradle to Cane: The Cost of Being A Female Consumer, revealed that girls' toys cost more 55% of the time, while boys' toys cost more 8% of the time. And girls' clothing cost more 26% of the time, while boys' clothing cost more 7% of the time. "New York is leading the nation in advancing women's rights and this milestone marks the latest step in New York's journey to break down barriers and put women on an equal playing field," Cuomo said. "By abolishing the pink tax, women and girls will no longer be subject to harmful and unfair price discrimination, and any businesses that fail to put an end to this despicable practice will be held accountable." The new measure requires certain service providers to offer price lists for standard services upon request and notifies them that gender-based price discrimination is prohibited under state law. Businesses that violate the law will be subject to civil penalties of $250 for the first violation, and up to $500 fine for any subsequent violations. So for example, the same children's swimming pool product brand and dimensions offered in pink at $89.99 and blue at $69.99 would constitute a violation of law. PUTTING AN END TO GENDER BASED PRICING Lt. Gov. Kathy Hochul said this is another step against gender inequality. "Women and girls continue to face inequalities in many aspects of their daily lives, and it is unacceptable that they have to pay more than men for similar goods and services," said Hochul. "Eliminating the pink tax helps put an end to gender-based pricing, ensure financial success and break down barriers for women. We do not tolerate discriminatory actions in our state, and we will continue to fight to eliminate the gender wage gap and achieve full equality and justice for all New Yorkers." Since the early 1990s, numerous studies have demonstrated the disparities in the cost of substantially similar goods and services based on whether they were marketed for men or women, said Cuomo's office. And studies found that women paid more for the female version of the same product offered to men. "The Pink Tax was gender-based discrimination, plain and simple," said Melissa DeRosa, secretary to the governor and chair of the New York State Council on Women and Girls. "In New York, women have been forced to accept the unjust reality of a higher price tag for identical goods marketed to men. It was unacceptable and starting today women and girls across this state can be confident that it won't happen again. New York has made tremendous progress in advancing gender equity through Governor Cuomo's Women's Agenda and abolishing the pink tax is a critical next step." CONSUMER'S RIGHT TO A PRICE LIST The new law also seeks to empower consumers by giving them the right to receive, upon request, a written price list from any business that provides a service. The state Division of Consumer Protection encourages consumers to familiarize themselves with the new requirement and ask their service providers in advance for a price list. Anyone selling products or providing services can avoid breaking the new law by ensuring that any price difference is based upon the following:

| How Shouting, Finger-Waving Girls Became Our Conscience - The New York Times Posted: 30 Sep 2020 08:00 AM PDT  ON HALLOWEEN, 1926, Uldine Mabelle Utley, a 14-year-old Oklahoma-born farmer's daughter, stood before a horde of 14,000 in Madison Square Garden in New York and cried, "Repent." She had been giving testimony — in the evangelical sense — since the age of 11. She was small and clad in white, a vision of purity despite her bobbed hair, which at the time was the scandalous trademark of the flapper but could be read as an attempt to forgo the trappings of gender, or at least postpone the arrival of womanhood. In an era when female lives were still fairly circumscribed in the West by law and tradition, Utley's authority came precisely from her lack of it, as not simply a child but a girl, slight in stature, bereft of the agency awarded to boys and men. Like Joan of Arc — another teenage farmer's daughter, who five centuries earlier had answered a heaven-sent summons to lead the French army — Utley won followers because she did not speak on her own behalf. "I am just a little voice crying in the wilderness," she said, paraphrasing the Book of Isaiah and the Gospel of John. Later in life, as a grown woman, she would never again hold an audience so rapt. After she attained sexuality, however implicit, she became a compromised figure in the eyes of the world, and the integrity of her message — unadulterated by personal desire — was lost. Even today, women who talk forcefully risk being labeled angry or shrill (or "nasty," Donald Trump's memorable insult to Hillary Clinton during the 2016 presidential campaign, which he recently reprised for Kamala Harris). To celebrate International Women's Day in 2017, the Boston-based investment firm State Street Global Advisors chose the figure of a child, not a woman, to memorialize in bronze, in the now famous "Fearless Girl" sculpture by the American artist Kristen Visbal, originally installed opposite the Italian artist Arturo Di Modica's 1989 "Charging Bull" near Wall Street in downtown Manhattan — a waif just over four feet tall, staring down three and a half tons of brute force. The symbolism was at once powerful and diminishing, reinforcing the equation of femininity and weakness. But while aggression in women remains suspect, the public is drawn, now more than ever, to girls who reproach and rebuke, calling the world to account for its ills — and girls in turn are learning to harness that public gaze to effect larger change. Since June, a video clip of 7-year-old Wynta-Amor Rogers of Uniondale, N.Y., chanting "No justice, no peace" and shaking a stern finger at a protest over the police killing of George Floyd, has earned millions of views. There is something of the prodigy in her extraordinary poise and conviction, but also defiance of any lingering stereotype that girls are fragile. Young yet preternaturally wise, tiny yet relentless: An image of the Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, shared online in the summer of 2018, captures those same startling juxtapositions. It shows her sitting alone, a wan, forlorn-looking 15-year-old with braids, beside her hot pink backpack (a totem of girlhood) on the cobblestones outside the Swedish Parliament in Stockholm. She had abandoned school to demand that the government cut carbon emissions; within days, dozens had joined her, then tens of thousands across the world in the months that followed. Image  In parts of the world where women's rights are still limited, girls must speak out for their own survival. In Malawi, Memory Banda has campaigned against child marriage since she was 13, successfully lobbying village chiefs to seize land and goats from men who take wives under the age of 21. At 11, Malala Yousafzai started anonymously reporting on life under the Taliban in northwest Pakistan, where girls had been banned from schools; her identity was soon revealed, and at 14, she was shot in the head by Taliban militants who condemned her work as "obscenity." (She survived and went on to win the Nobel Peace Prize.) Girl activists in the West are not exempt from such hatred: Once elevated to icons, they become targets, subject to slurs, death threats and a torrent of pornography that floods their social-media accounts, a form of sexual harassment. In this they are comrades with their slightly older, outspoken sisters, among them the New York congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who was elected in 2018 at the age of 29 but has still been called a "little girl" and dismissed by her colleagues and critics as "naïve" and "dumb." Video transcript 0:00/11:06 transcript The Making of MalalaThe story of Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani schoolgirl, told by The Times's Adam B. Ellick, who made a 2009 documentary about her before she was an international star.
 THE STATE OF girlhood occupies a contradictory place in the cultural imagination, as both an ideal and a denigration; girls, and young women by extension, are to be doted on, then shushed and sent back to play with their dolls and makeup. (Witness President Trump tweeting, in response to Thunberg's righteous anger, "She seems like a very happy young girl" and later advising her to just "chill" and watch a movie with a friend.) If they do speak up, they're indulged only so long as they remain presexual. Joan of Arc, who was around 17 when she helped deliver a besieged Orléans from the English in 1429, wielded her virginity as a halo and, as the scholar of religion and comparative literature Françoise Meltzer has written, wore men's clothes as "partial protection from rape." In the end, the church seized upon her cross-dressing — "the wearing of short, tight and dissolute male habits," per the trial record — to justify burning her for heresy in 1431. What today's naysayers fail to understand is that these latter-day Joans don't derive their power from some outmoded notion of innocence. We've already taken that away from them. The gun-control advocate Emma González was 18 when she lived through the 2018 mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Fla.; she has since become our national conscience, reminding us of the deaths our laws have done nothing to prevent, crying "Shame" with her head shaved but unbowed. (Although she has brushed off any symbolism to the buzz cut, which predated the tragedy, it gives her the aura of a soldier and a saint at once — and the liminal freedom of the androgyne.) She and her fellow activists come armed with a different kind of weapon: knowledge of an unjust system and a forfeited future. Thunberg, given a pulpit at the United Nations last fall, stared down at the world's leaders, a crowd of mostly men, and delivered an indictment. "How dare you," she said. "You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words."  |
