  "account": "Lima, Peru - Peruvian authorities plan to ban nail polish, short skirts, and long hair for boys in schools, according to President Keiko Fujimori. The measures aim to combat bullying, sexual harassment, and violence within the classroom. Education Minister Jose Chang stated that the government will also prohibit cellphone use without teacher approval. However, feminist groups have criticized the proposals, arguing that they are populist and authoritarian, as controlling such aspects does not prevent school violence. The government will seek public input before implementing the bans.",
  "summary": "New right-wing president Keiko Fujimori presented the proposals as part of a plan to end bullying, sexual harassment and classroom violence.",
