Girl in pants ejected from North Carolina prom for violating non-existent dress code

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/04/23/girl-in-pants-ejected-from-north-carolina-prom-for-violating-non-existent-dress-code/

A high school senior in Cherryville, NC said that she was kicked out of her school’s prom for wearing pants.

Shafer Rupard and her friends are students at Cherryville High School and on Saturday night, they attended the school’s prom. WBTV reported, however that Rupard had only just arrived when a school administrator approached her on the dance floor.

“The teacher tapped me on the shoulder and said she had a problem with what I was wearing,” said Rupard to WBTV. “I thought it was because of the hat or the leather jacket and I was like well I’ll take those off and she was like no, it’s the pants.”

Rupard was wearing a pair of red skinny jeans, which her mother Shawn McQuaige said was perfectly appropriate to the occasion.



Because she wasn't wearing her....
