The first thing that came to mind as I started reading this article was, I wonder how the girls would feel if the boys started wearing t-shirts and buttons that said, "I (heart) My Penis."

Apparently I wasn't the first person to wonder that:

Because of the context of the button, Berg said she believes it is different than if it contained a male sexual organ.

"For young women, it's taking a body part that's socially constructed as nasty, dirty and something we don't talk about, and say, ‘You know, this is a part of me and I love it and I'm not going to let it be portrayed in a negative way' " she said.

Further:

Some students claim the school has focused on the button, while ignoring other controversial attire.

Junior Ian Nicholson said students wore shirts Wednesday that had the numerals 88—representing the H in Hail Hitler— to commemorate Adolf Hitler's birthday, but he didn't know any who were reprimanded.

Other students said their peers often wear shirts that say "Pet my pussy," "I got lucky in Kentucky" or attire bearing Hooters or Playboy bunny logo without consequence.

"They just saw the word vagina and got freaked out," said Nicholson. He plans to wear the male version, "I support your vagina," T-shirt to support Rethlefsen because he believes the issue is one of free speech.

Sorta makes me nostalgic for my own high school days, when I got called into the principal's office for wearing my skirts too short and too-large and distracting earrings. I thought I was such a rebel.
