The online community has been debating for the past few days about some students in Ho Chi Minh City going to class wearing clothes that reveal their chests, their navels, or even shorts. Is it the right of each person to dress however they want, regardless of what others think, or should they dress for the right person at the right time?
The article "Wearing revealing, wearing... pajamas to school is freedom or an eyesore?" posted on Tuoi Tre Online immediately received many comments from readers. Most of them opposed dressing without "looking before and after" when going to public places. Many readers said that personal freedom cannot be used as an excuse for being sloppy and disrespectful to others when going out.
Reader Tam Da shared: "It's right to wear whatever you like. If you go to the beach, wear a bikini. I like looking at bikinis, but wearing a bikini to the market, or pajamas, gym clothes to the lecture hall, supermarket, or movie theater is disrespectful to others. There is no rule prohibiting you from wearing something. The prohibition is in your head. It's culture and education."
Sharing the same opinion, reader Ly Nguyen Khanh also commented: "Dressing beautifully is different from being revealing. Don't say that in this modern civilized era, we are free like in foreign countries where we can wear whatever we want.
As a student, you should dress nicely, politely, and not too offensively. People will like it and compliment you. If you are so confident that you wear pajamas to school and think you look good, then you are probably the only one who thinks you look good. Others will find it ridiculous.
Reader Mai Nguyen was disappointed: "Ridiculous, can't distinguish between personal freedom and ridiculous. Don't say that's a difference."
"How to dress is everyone's freedom, the law cannot specifically regulate it. In my personal opinion, the most important thing is still each person's awareness. For example, each person must be aware of how to dress when going to the temple or a funeral compared to how to dress when going to a wedding or a ball... People can judge a person based on how they dress," reader Tan Tran commented.
Reader Hung commented: "Agree with this article. 12 years of wearing uniforms in high school still does not create a suitable and neat dress code for many young people. When they go to university, they let loose and wear whatever they want: pullovers, drawstring pants, slippers, and sleeveless dresses. Students in the dormitory literally roll out of bed, put on slippers and run to school. Future intellectuals with such bad manners.
You should learn how to dress according to the profession you are pursuing in the future. Law students should dress like lawyers, economics students should dress like businessmen. Sloppiness and bad taste are ingrained and cannot be changed.
Regarding this issue, reader Sang said: "In cases where the school does not have any regulations or prohibitions, students still need to dress in a way that shows that they are educated, cultured, and respectful to their teachers. It cannot be said that freedom of dress means wearing clothes that are too thin or too short like in the bedroom to express one's ego. It is different from going to bed and even more different from going to the beach. It is very offensive, especially lacking respect for the lecturer and lacking respect for oneself."
