Schoolboy in Fifty Shades outfit gets banned from World Book Day event

An 11-year-old boy was excluded from his school’s World Book Day event after he dressed as a character from Fifty Shades of Grey, reports Sky News.

According to The Guardian, Liam Scholes was banned from photos of the event at his Manchester school and had to change Fifty Shades character to James Bond.

“Me and the teacher agreed to disagree and it’s not being taken any further but I was disappointed for Liam that he’d been stopped from taking part and that he’s had a dressing down,” Liam’s Mum told the Manchester Evening News.

“One of the teachers went dressed as Dexter and I don’t see why sex is seen as more offensive than murder.”
