Love the young man that is showing solidarity with the girls by also getting naked. I notice that he also feels the need to cover his"zone" with some books. I'd bet good money that young man's got himself a konged whopper.

Who on earth is making rules like this? And why? Kids the world over manage to pass their university exams dressed inwhatever clothes they feel comfortable in. How did the Dean dress when he was a student? Funny how people whose role ismainly administrative, can often become deluded into thinking they need to control everything. I'm very proud those youngwomen rebelled.

Seems like the school is trying to have them dress appropriately instead of like slobs.

Why are miniskirts banned? So are the male administrators who banned it, admitting that Hungarian men are like animals whocan't control themselves or something? Did they also ban men going topless during summer? They should ban men from wearingtight t-shirts and tight pants too.. we all how much Euro men love to wear tight clothes.. it's too revealing.. ban them right away.
