Uniforms aren't part of the culture in US public education.

Also, while uniforms aren’t standard in public schools there is typically a dress code students are expected to follow.

Please don't engage in a straw man argument. I specifically said "if they had their freedom of choice and autonomy suddenly stripped away".

Uniforms aren't part of the culture for the majority of students in the US. If that switched overnight then yes, they would reasonably "freak out".

Your generalized statement is "delusional". There are plenty of private schools in the US that require uniforms, numerous jobs that require a specific uniform, and pretty much all businesses have a dress code.

So yes, going from a standard where no uniform is required in a school to having to wear one, especially if it was mandated without warning or input from those it affects would constitute "having your freedom of choice and autonomy taken away".

Freedom of choice is the ability to make decisions and take actions based on one's own preferences and desires, without undue external constraints or coercion.

Freedom of autonomy refers to the capacity of an individual to make their own choices and be self-governing, free from external constraints or coercion.
