For years male students wore red robes, and female students wore white robes to graduation at Elyria High School.

Red and white are the school colors, but that’s changing for graduation this spring.

The change happened after a group of students went to the principal on behalf of a student who was born female but does not identify as male or female.

Wanting to be inclusive, school official switched to gender neutral robes.

Now, all students will wear red robes. …

This is really getting sad. . . .the poor kids being exposed to all of this indoctrination-talk/action nonsense. Not to mention the curriculum.

Why does 99.9% of the population have to bend over backwards to accommodate the mental illness of .1% of the population?

Because one person can’t decide the obvious all must be Shanghaied into abandoning common sense?

Students who have learned nothing should not be graduating anyway.

Administrators who bow to this insanity should be sacked.

Oh for cryin’ out loud! This is disgraceful, that the principal even gave ear to such a ridiculous piece of nonsense. What do they have to do now, run a DNA test before assigning graduation robes?

Now, all students will wear red robes. …

Why? To demonstrate their solidarity with world socialism.

Because Hollywood.

The school should burn up their dress code and clothing, we are born naked anyway. What are they trying to hide? Science?

This is why we can’t have nice thing.

I love how inclusion means excluding 99.9% of the population too. When they get out into the real world, they’re going to expect all kinds of accommodation and then lose their minds when they don’t get it.

I object. RED is the color of blood, the color of all the blood shed by people since time began! RED IS RACIST! And violent! SO I demand that RED be removed from the graduation gowns. And while we are at it, the school. No more red. And people with red hair are going to have to shave it off. And red meat has to go. And books, because they are "read", which SOUNDS like "red", and is in fact a MICRO AGGRESSION!

I realize that absolutely no one but me may be offended by this. But that's enough.

Not to mention “red” and ”read” (past tense) are homophones, so now we might get accused of homophonia.

The egalitarian nonsense is not about wardrobes. It is Marxism in the clothing of fairness and sensitivity. It is little baby steps towards breaking crucifixes off the steeple of Christian churches and speech police taking jobs away from citizens who speak their mind. It is about totalitarianism getting set to control America under its deadly grip.

If I were the parents at this school, I would stand up to the transgender political correctness thugs.

This is how the Pledge, school prayer, etc. all got scrapped. One atheist\anti-Xtian felt aggrieved and they started the legal ball rolling
