Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender dress code.

Clothing often signifies an outward expression of one’s identity and dignity. It is important to let people dress to whichever they want so long as it is descent and fit in the setting. After all the lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgender people are human beings and they are entitled to freedom of choice and freedom of association.  Shoutout to the institutions and communities that are embracing equity across the globe. Every person is entitled to their own sexuality and thus they should be accorded the freedom they are entitled to. For instance, the Bangkok parliament that went ahead allowing the Lgbt members of parliament to wear how they want. “Lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender politicians can dress as they please but the suits or dresses must be modest,” Sorasak Pienvej, secretary-general of the Lower House, said, referring to parliamentary regulations on clothing.

This was a nice move as they proclaimed it to the public after the allegations of the members of parliament who were Lgbt.

It was also observed in some certain schools in the united states where they embraced all the sexual dimensions. Rincon High School is among the schools that embraces lgbt and their dress code. Los Angeles high school voted for a male student as the prom queen.

My take to this issue is that all the people should be given freedom to choose how they dress themselves. The community at large should not be bias or harsh to these people as earlier observed in some parts of Kenya Nairobi. In Nairobi some gay people were beaten because of how they dressed and this is against human rights. Although gayism and lesbianism is not legalized I Kenya no one should take advantage of that and harass the lgbt people across the society. 

With this freedom of choice of dressing it will brings a lot of advantages. The lgbt will not have to hide in fear of being tortured by the masses. It will also help the lgbt to identify the other lgbts in the globe helping them cope up with the challenges that life brings along. Dress code conflicts often reflect a generational divide, with students coming of age in a culture that is more accepting of ambiguity and difference than that of the adults who make the rules. although dress code disputes are largely anecdotal, popping up in the news when a lawsuit threat emerges, educators and psychologists say that more schools will have to address them in the near future.
