The letters to the editor that this provokes should be a hoot.

He certainly has a Cavalier attitude to political correctness.

So, you’re happy about not being gay? How dare these individuals trash political correctness for the sake of logic and sanity!!!

Who do these logical people think they are, happy heterosexuals? This can’t be!!! What a national calamity!!!
How dare my fellow heterosexuals put up this kind of fuss.
What’s next? Thanksgiving? Christmas? :)/sarc

Teachers in MA have been encouraging Gay and Lesbian Youth to approach the objects of their affection. The common response is; “I’m flattered but no thanks.” Well, I wouldn’t be flattered and how long before some Christian student gets disciplined for giving the “wrong” answer?

"Not surprisingly, the chant's opponents found it much easier to write us off as drunks and homophobes then address our intellectual concerns."

The Left's MO has always been to ignore reality and simply vilify their opponents.

Alex Cortes is a first year in the College of Arts & Sciences.

Not for long, if the homo's have their way.

Symbolism over substance. People get more upset over words and symbols than over teal things.
madness.

Too bad “Gay” replaced the real word “Queer”

Similar to “choice” replacing “baby killers”

Way to go young student; you need stand up for traditional values, and keep “old dominion” alive; Take back Virgina (which I have some affinity for since I went to college in central virginia)!

They could change the lyrics to:

"Where all is bright and STRAIGHT!"

Almost rhymes.

Wouldn’t be the first time a Virginia anthem gets nixed over political correctness. What’s the Old Dominion’s state song now, anyway?

Seems like “that’s so gay” is now a common insult used by middle-schoolers and other young folks, at least where I live. I means, roughly, “that’s so uncool” or “isn’t that effeminate?”

The homosexuals stole the word. The kids stole it back.

Teal things don't bother me, but I do get irritated by mauve now and again.

Yep, although there is something obnoxious about screaming out your sexual orientation no matter what that orientation is.

But this is clearly protected speech.
