School uniforms promote a more classless society. In retrospect I definitely would have favored them. Of course they should be unisex.

“What is a speed suit? Only the perfect habilitant for the science minded man, who knows both comfort and ease and demands them from his clothing. In a speed suit you say to the world: ‘Look out! I know what I’m wearing for the rest of my life!'” — Dr. Venture
