Different cultures and mentality. Using a uniform is like using any other work clothes, it's not really a way to suppress identity not to mention your clothes shouldn't be the sole thing that defines you. That's just a very western way to think. There's a time and place for everything and in school you are suppose to learn most of all, and like everything uniforms have a purpose.
Well, of course wearing clothes isn't the only thing that expresses identity, but something feels off to me when you force it upon kids who are required by law to attend school, as if it's a nonpaying job for kids when it's not really equivalent. Like when you're an adult, you know what you're going into at this point and you at least have a choice on the matter.
I guess it's a matter of disagreement of cultural attitudes at this point, so agree to disagree.
