This is what is so questionable about this wonderful "gay lifestyle". That is, if it were so fun, enjoyable and makes one feel so gay, as the original meaning of that term would indicate, then why are the "gay" people seemingly so unhappy?

I was talking to a few teenagers at a nail salon last prom season. There were a lot of them there getting their 'nails did'. Was asking them about the prom. They started telling me about how much everything costs, in addition to your grooming and outfits. There's a fee to go to a high school prom, along with other additional fees to the school. It sounded like a really expensive event to attend. They said that not many people go to the prom because of the cost involved, and that hardly anyone goes. I would imagine that is so with the current economy and people just barely getting by. My question is: who can afford to even go to the prom these days? Why doesn't this girl just comply? Schools do have dress codes. I think they have the authority to institute dress codes in high school. Even if the homosexual issue were not part of the complaining, sometimes a suit with pants is in vogue for females. However, if it's a rule not to wear it, just find something else to wear and go and have a good time, and count your blessings that you can afford to attend, when others cannot. The article says that she is one of the top students in the school. So what? Does that mean that the rules should be rewritten for one person? What IS the problem? So, my question is I figure if a principle in California can tell kids that cannot wear an American flag shirt to school on Cinco de Mayo, than a principle in Louisiana can tell a girl she has to wear a dress to the prom. I am tired having people playing the sympathy and oppression card for one side, and the bigot card for the other side for essentially the same issue. |

The story is about a high school in a southern state and NOT somewhere like San Francisco....where something like that is SO YESTERDAY'S NEWS it isn't funny. I am not an expert in what the "trends" might be in that area--as I don't know if we are talking about New Orleans or some little hick town else where in the state--but generally speaking the religious and political mindset is probably much more conservative than some other areas might be. If you are living in a Bible-belt state where the "old tyme religion" is still alive and influencing public opinion, then you have to understand that they would not be bending to the "gay agenda." Actually, if they had allowed her to wear a TUX...THAT would be more news than having them refuse! lol! I'm not going to even state what my side of this issue I might be on--just want you to look at where this girl is going to school and what that high school principal is enforcing via the majority opinion of the parents rather than following what is popular in media. I grew up in the Mid-west and had some gal come to the principal (at my school) to tell him she was planning to wear a tux to "express her sexuality" she would not only NOT have worn a tux, she probably would have been suspended. This chick is going to be trouble anywhere she goes and given that she is a "good student" I would expect her to be an activist in her college as well. I'm sorry, but the Principal has to enforce the standards of the people in his community. That's just how it goes. O'sCookie "Know ONE thing absolutely...and you will UNDERSTAND everything.
