Girls Suspected Of Being Lesbians Expelled From School

Girls Suspected Of Being Lesbians Expelled From School

Teens File Lawsuit Against School

POSTED: 7:23 am EST December 30, 2005

RIVERSIDE, Calif. -- Two 16-year-olds who were expelled from a Lutheran high school because they were suspected of being lesbians have sued the school for invasion of privacy and discrimination.

The lawsuit, filed last week in Riverside County Superior Court, seeks the girls' re-enrollment at the small California Lutheran High School, unspecified damages and an injunction barring the school from excluding gays and lesbians.

Kirk D. Hanson, an attorney for the girls, said the expulsion traumatized and humiliated them.

"Their entire support network was pulled out from under them because of suspicions about their sexual orientation," said Hanson, who declined to say whether his clients are lesbians.

The school is on Christmas break until next week, and messages left for school officials Thursday were not immediately returned.

The lawsuit alleges that the school's principal, Gregory Bork, called the girls into his office, grilled them on their sexual orientation and "coerced" one girl into saying she loved the other.

The next day, the lawsuit says, Bork told the girls' parents they could not stay at the school with "those feelings." In a Sept. 12 letter to the parents, Bork acknowledged that officials had seen no physical contact between the girls but said their friendship was "uncharacteristic of normal girl relationships and more characteristic of a lesbian one."

"Such a relationship violates our Christian Code of Conduct," Bork wrote in his letter, which was included as an exhibit in the lawsuit. He called the girls' behavior "scandalous" and "immoral."

Hanson said the 142-student school in Wildomar, Calif., must comply with state civil rights laws because it functions as a business by collecting tuition.

"There's a lot of hypocrisy going on here," Hanson said. "The school is claiming the girls were expelled because their conduct wasn't within the Christian code. But at the same time, (the school) has students who aren't Christians and are even Jewish."

True. My nephew reports that homosexual relationships are the "in thing" in schools now.

Of course it is! Even if a girl is faking it, letting it be known that she's up for some girl action is proof positive that she's a slut. That would move her to the top of the "girls to ask out" list. And being immature and badly raised, the poor girls honestly don't know the difference between being popular, and being an unpaid whore in high demand.

Sorry, but I do disagree. No one has any real proof of anything. It's suspicions and innuendo for now.

"There's a lot of hypocrisy going on here," Hanson said"

There sure is, Mr. Hanson ... from your side. If your clients aren't lesbians, then why is your lawsuit seeking "an injunction barring the school from excluding gays and lesbians"?

Just threw that in for good measure?

I would picture Catherine Zeta Jones and Shania Twain if they were of that persuation.

I'll give that an "A-MEN."

"I wonder which prize they would get. Actually, they probably would get harassed there too or anywhere in general."

Probably the "prize" of being "inclusive" when it comes to sex.

Harassment? LOL! The trend is for ALL PUBLIC schools to have a GLAD Alliance Day! You've got to update yourself!

You make a very valid (unfortunately) point. They would be welcomed and praised.

I can't imagine WHY these two want to be in this school. Maybe they get off on the idea of being the only perverts on the sly there. Who knows!

Decent point. It's not exactly clear what exactly the girls did to make them "suspect." I do think that the lawsuit isn't a good idea. One thing is to determine is do the girls really have the "capacity" to be declared as lesbians. I don't believe teenagers can be said to have the "maturity" to make the decision on sexual orientation (except I guess to abstain) in much the same way as we apply with drugs, alcohol, and smoking. Can we declare them as such too?

Oh, they'd be coveted and over protected. Heads in public schools LOVE this sort of thing! I'm not kidding either.

You're right. It's a code of conduct, not a code of belief. I just wonder what behavior led them to make the allegations.

Some people are absolutely in love with their "victim" status. I know people like this. It's incomprehensible to me, not to mention sad.

not necessarily. A lot of "them" don't get "welcomed" so to speak (faggot is a common word). In fact "gay" has become a slang word (as an adjective) akin to stupid. Gayness doesn't belong in any school.

I'd rather not know ... up in NY we have the FIRST, taxpayer funded GAY HIGHSCHOOL!! ONLY for gays ... and I don't want to know what goes on there either. BTW, Bloomberg is rather proud of this - you know protecting and having everyone fund perversion.

I have no idea what a GLAD alliance day is, nor do a LOT of people around here I assume. But yes, I do believe they would get harassed, maybe not so much being girls (though at least here, there would be sort of an unofficial "hands-off" policy). But if they were guys there would be harassment indeed.

You're right - being a self created "victim" is a plus!

Bonus points are given to the self created "victim" if it defies what used to be normal.
