The Reason This Student Was Asked to Leave Her School's Gym Will Boil Your Blood
When Grace DiChristina arrived at her school's gym, she expected to go about her workout as usual. But to the Santa Clara University student's dismay, she was asked to leave because of her outfit; she was wearing a crop top and shorts that bared only a slight section of her midriff. After approaching the facility's supervisor for an explanation, she was given two less-than-convincing reasons her attire was problematic.
The first reason was that it posed a risk of contracting MRSA, a bacterial staph infection that may occur after skin-to-skin contact. If only an inch of Grace's stomach is considered a health hazard, the school has a greater issue at hand. The second reason was that her university is considered a Jesuit institution and her outfit was simply inappropriate. Not only does this justification seem exaggerated, but it's also a clear double standard. Men often work out either completely shirtless or with a majority of their skin showing.
Understandably, she took to Facebook to express her outrage:
