Rhetorical question because I'm sure you already know the answer: if a male student violated the dress code in exactly the same manner by wearing a tank top to class, would the principal have said his attire was a "sexual distraction" to the female students?
That's the issue here. A young woman is being told by adults in positions of authority that her perfectly acceptable dress is inappropriate because her horndog male classmates can't control their sexual urges. It's absolutely an unfair double standard, and good on Ms. Wiggins for taking a stand against it.
