SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — A Sioux Falls teenager has garnered national attention by quitting her job when told by a manager that her shorts were too short.

Seventeen-year-old Sylvia Stoel quit her job as a J.C. Penney sales clerk last Friday rather than change her shorts, which she had bought from the store’s career department.

Stoel then posted a photo of herself wearing the shorts on her Twitter account, drawing both accolades and death threats. She’s also done interviews with a national magazine and TV morning shows.

Stoel tells the Argus Leader newspaper ( ) that she doesn’t hold a grudge against the store.

She says it’s about “a larger issue of misogyny and dress codes.”

J.C. Penney says it doesn’t comment on personnel matters, but that its dress code is not sexist.
