Yeah those are called idiots.

Your problem is that you view homosexuality as something that is caught or passed on. It's not a virus, it's not something you catch or wake up and decide.

Parents send kids to school to become who they want to be...oh unless you choose to be gay and stuff. That's when it stops being ok to be individual.

Look at it this way... Parents don't want their kids to expose to such things that early... it goes for all, straights or homosexuals...

Sorry, but I really don't understand the role of homosexuals in earth, as I see no purpose... Not that I don't see them as humans, but how I see them, is like how you people see borned handicapped person...

they have a girls and boys dress code...she didnt follow it, so she got taken out of the year book, i dont see the problem there

if she was straight and wore a tuxedo im sure theyd have taken her out of the yearbook aswell, ppl just making a big deal out of nothing

she didnt follow the rules, she got removed..simple as that, people just wanna get on their high horse cos she's gay

^ Df02 has make a brilliant point...

Well whats your purpose on earth then, and who gave you that purpose (oh I sure hope you say god this would be great)

Bardock42. are you in the wrong thread/forum?? I thought we had this discussion earlier on in the Philosophy forum??

Well no I am just curious because you said thesy don't have a purpose so I guess you do, eh?

Reproduction...

Don't you already know this Bardock??

This is the whole purpose of life? What the hell.

It is one of the purpose... other than reproduction, it is experience...

"Sorry, but I really don't understand the role of homosexuals in earth, as I see no purpose... Not that I don't see them as humans, but how I see them, is like how you people see borned handicapped person..."

Morons have less importance here than homosexuals. I can at least have a conversation with a gay man or a lesbian woman. See where I'm going?

As for the boy/girl dress code, they stated that there were no set rules. Besides, in senior prom pictures you don't dress in school uniform anyway, you dress formally. She dressed formally in a situation where there were no rules. They still removed her.

Who are you calling morons?

.......The people who are morons?

I thought that was decipherable from the sentence "Morons have less importance...".

Do I need to bring an etch a sketch to this board or something?

I wear girls' clothes.

You see there a things that put arguements forward, this ^ as well as the one I am righting now, do not.

Bruce Bickner, an attorney representing the School Board, said there is no written dress code for senior pictures...

Perhaps you should read the article more carefully before you post.

No, perhaps you should. The same quote says that the Principle has the authority to set standards.

Clearly the Principle set out a dress code for the event, and she broke it. Lesbian, straight, whatever... that makes no damn difference. She broke a pre-set dress code, and so there should be absolutely no issue with this punishment.

To try and make this into an equality issue is grossly disproportionate. You should respect a dress code. To say that she is allowed to break the rules BECAUSE she is a lesbian is blatant discrimination and wrong. The same rules must apply to all. Anyone who broke the dress code would have had the same fate.

If you don't like dress codes, don't go- but the Principle had a right to set one. Simple as that.

All this fuss because she's a lesbian. Pffft. My teacher told an ethnic joke about Polish people the other day. I could have said something to this loud, obnoxious "OMG AFFIRMATIVE ACTION" black teacher at my school (seriously, that is what she is like) and she wouldn't have cared. Now, if I was a black student and was offended by a black joke...well, there would be hell to pay.

You notice how everything today is racism/sexism/what-have-you-ism? There is a scholarship at the college I am going to attend for people that are "active members" in the "gay, lesbian, and transgender community" (or something like that; can't remember the exact word for 'transgender'😉.

Pathetic.

ush and feceman are correct, she broke the dress code, end of story, her sexuality is not an issue...

Except for everyone who WANTS to make it an issue.
