Boy, 13, Suspended Over Vera Bradley Purse

Garnett, KS (KCTV) — A 13-year-old Kansas eighth-grader says he was suspended from school on Wednesday because he refused to take off his Vera Bradley purse.

His furious mother says it is discrimination because girls are allowed to have purses with no repercussions.

“I don’t think everyone should be treated differently,” Skylar Davis said. “Everyone should have the same privileges.”

Anderson County School District officials did not respond to KCTV5′s repeated efforts to get a comment.

No forcible gender-norming going on there. No sir!

Thanks to Grace for pointing out this story to me.
