| An Australian mum campaigned for her daughter to wear pants to schoo |
An Australian schoolgirl has won the right to wear
trousers to her Catholic school in Melbourne.
Asha, 6, used to ask her mum "why she couldn't
wear pants like the boys," so it would be easier for her to run and climb.
Her mother Simone Cariss asked the school to let Asha
wear trousers, but after they declined, she started a Change.org petition
called #GirlsWearPantsToo.
Her petition calls for uniform gender equality in
schools to be legislated. It now has more than 15,000 signatures and a hashtag
that's being used to show support on social media.
