>>>there is a legitimate state interest to prevent a pervert dressed in drag from attending.
If you take a deep breath and think for a moment you may realize what a dumb remark that is. This is Mississippi. You think girls there don’t regularly wear shirts and jeans? Even good virginal totally heterosexual Christian girls.
Ladies trousers have been in the wardrobe now for a century. It’s a little late to point in sputtering outrage at those who wear them.
Besides prom dresses for a generation have tended to be from the slutwear collection. A nice neat tux would be a step up from a lot of what you see.
>>>The girl, I’m sure, will amend her original complaint, seeking damages for the original ban. She’ll win, easily. That’s it, in a legal nutshell.
I question whether she can sustain a claim for actual damages for a canceled prom where the school had no obligation to hold the prom in the first place. However even a nuisance settlement would be a clear victory for her principles. Otherwise I agree with your posts.
Obviously, we have different standards. I, and I believe the Christian majority of north Mississippi, would view a flagrant act of transvestism far more disruptive and offensive than ladies’ trousers or moderately risque attire.
