Haha, yep, I think she was just casting about for any example of women's oppression she could find. I'm sure, in another context, she'd have been talking about how wrong it is that young girls are sexualised. Agreed on school uniforms. There are lots of benefits to them. For example, poorer kids don't have to try to keep up with fashion at school which reduces the chances of bullying.
Diane seems seriously confused. Doesn't she expect teen boys to be aroused past control by the girls' legs? Make up your mind, lady.
Uniforms: the schools have their own laundry; get muddied on the playground and you can swap in a new uniform right away and leave the other to be washed. This isn't hyper-communitarian Japan but I taught here for six years and never heard a student complain about being made to wear a uniform. In the USA there would be riots/
