How Can I Get Rid Of These Little Hair Threads On My School Trousers

Why do military personnel tuck their trousers into their boots?

There are a number of reasons, and this forum thread covers most of the ones I know about and a few others. It keeps your trousers out of the mud and keeps them from swishing against each other (as much) when you're on the march. It's partly tradition, honoring the Airborne Infantry of the second World War, and back then it was important for keeping your trousers from flapping around or snagging on things in the airplane and on the way down. It also makes it easier to issue uniforms in a few standard sizes, since they don't have to be hemmed to fit the individual soldier.It should be noted that the term for this practice is "blousing" the boots, and that tucking in is not the only way it's accomplished. There are various devices available to produce the desired effect without tucking in, and the uniform trousers come with a drawstring in the cuff which does the same thing, sort of. In the US Army, different specialties or areas within the service have different ways they generally prefer to blouse their trousers (similar to the way US Navy Sailors have different ways of styling and blocking their dixie cup hats). Some people like to "peg" their pants by folding them over before tucking them in. Some people put devices, like tin cans with both ends cut out, inside the bloused portion to weigh them down and keep a perfectly round and symmetrical appearance (I've seen some Air Force personnel do this, too). I used the included drawstring, tied loosely enough so that my cuffs hung as low as possible and covered most of my boot, because it was more comfortable that way and that's how the other guys in my unit did it. For the most part everybody thinks everyone else's way of doing it is silly.All of the above only applies to the fatigue/combat uniform. If trousers are worn this way in a service dress uniform, it signifies that the wearer is a member of an Airborne unit.

What do students today typically wear to high school?

I’m a high school teacher, I’m in San Diego, California. My school technically has a dress code but it is very very casual. In a nut shell: don’t show your private parts, no drug or alcohol references, no gang references. Kids wear pretty much whatever.I have had to issue a uniform violation a handful of times the last few years. Usually boys with the drug and alcohol references on their shirts, hats, or socks. I have talked to girls about their clothes maybe three times: one girl only wore a hoody as a shirt and was unzipping it and flashing boys in class and the second time was a girl who had taken her shirt off and had a bathing-suit on and was laid out and tanning in a grassy area and the third time the girls skirt was too small and she couldn’t bend down and pick things up and she couldn’t sit in her desk because you could see her privates. That’s it though.Most of the time kids are good, there style is definitely different than mine but that doesn’t mean they are inappropriate. Some kids were wearing suits and fancy dresses last year for what they called “Fancy Friday”, some wear pajamas, some wear just jeans/shorts and t-shirts, some kids will where the shirts that look like doilies with a boob tube on but they look nice and it’s not really a big deal. I am also not in the business of telling a girl to put on clothes because a boy can’t concentrate on his schooling. Her education is just as important as his and I’m not going to disrupt her education because a boy can’t concentrate, I’m gonna tell the boy hey “Eyes up here stop being rude”. His education is not her responsibility. He is responsible for himself. And the argument of hormones and boys have to look is a BS argument. It’s cultural. Skirts that showed a girls knees used to be considered inappropriate, now boys can concentrate just fine with skirts that are above the knee.Part of the culture here is a beach culture where kids are regularly in their bathing suits a good amount of the time over the summer and outside of school so a lack of clothes and showing skin is kind of normal here. I grew up here and it was pretty typical to just see people wearing their bathing suit and some jean shorts as bottoms so anything that covers more than a two piece bathing suit is pretty covered up here.
