Generally I'm let people wear what they're comfortable with, with a side of if it requires tampon checks and extra pubic grooming it's probably not great

When I was in middle school, the ballet school I attended required us to wear white leotards. When I got my first period, I was like ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? I wanted to skip class for a week every month, not just because of the physical discomfort of cramps but because I was always paranoid that I was going to end up with blood stained leotards and tights.

I think the issue with 'comfort' is that undue pressure will be put on girls to stay with the sexualized outfits under the guise of them 'making their own choices'.
