Boy: You know what this school needs? A strict dress code. And it needs to be pajamas. And messy hair.
Frazz: "Those who would sacrifice autonomy for comfort deserve neither."

Be careful what color the PJ’s are. It might get you a butt whipping. And someone would end up wearing a see through negligee. That wouldn’t be too disruptive would it?
Until comparatively recent times, students at Outer Islands High School on Yap (a US public school) attended topfree without distraction. The T-shirt industry changed that, although they are still topfree for ceremonial occasions like graduations.

Frazz is not implying it is a real quote, he is parodying a real quote to make a point in this situation, which she fully understood. One reason he is so popular is that he is reinforcing their classroom education in a humorous and clarifying way.
Most of the teachers are from that culture. Any nudist in our culture will tell you it takes about five minutes for a “cottontail” to become quite at ease. Both the schools and the resorts are nonsexual in this regard.
Hippogriff, What a great way to celebrate….I have to admit, I think it’s a wonderful idea for women to go topless during ceremonies…And the more I think about it, I also think we should have a lot more such ceremonies…..

I thought I remember reading that Ben was notorious for stealing those terrycloth robes from the hotels in Paris during his frequent trips to Europe.

Dress codes in real schools are usually very strict compared to cartoon ones.

Kid suggests SACRIFICING (giving up) autonomy (freedom over clothing) for comfort (PJs) – just what Frazz said – what am I missing?

Terrycloth came a bit late for Franklin.
