Male Teachers Are Wearing Skirts To Class In Order To Protest This Student Getting Expelled Over It

If education is done right, it can change the world for the better. This is why the teachers of Spain are taking a stand for a male student who was expelled for wearing a skirt. 

As a protest, this year 37-year-old Manuel Ortega and 36-year-old started showing up in the class wearing skirts. It’s all part of the Clothes Have No Gender (#laropanotienegenero) movement. This movement wants to put a stop to gender norms in the European country.

Teacher Borja Velázquez, along with his coworker Manuel Ortega, reignited the Clothes Have No Gender movement after a recent incident

They both decided to wear skirts to class and teach their students about tolerance after a student at their school was bullied for the clothes he was wearing
