I first saw this story last week, and the media seems to have really taken a shine to it. Seems a couple of 17 year old high school girls decided to dress up as Captain Underpants for Halloween, and while the students and teachers were cool with it, the principal decided that having girls dressed in nude-colored leotards roaming the hallways was a little distracting.
Long Beach High School Principal Nicholas Restivo took the action Wednesday after three 17-year-old girls wore beige leotards and nude stockings under white briefs and red capes on the school’s Superhero Day.
“Yes, I know they weren’t naked,â€? Restivo said. “But the appearance was that they were naked.â€?
Chelsea Horowitz, one of the dressed-up girls, had a problem with that logic.
“They’re not see-through or anything,â€? said Horowitz, an honor student and softball player. “All the teachers thought it was cute.â€?
