A Tennessee CEO was fired after he was accused of harassing a teenage boy for wearing a dress to his prom.
Former VisuWell executive Sam Johnson, 46, was filmed telling the boy he looked like an 'idiot' at the prom near Nashville on Saturday.
He has denied the allegations, despite being caught on camera making the remarks.
The boy, Dalton Stevens, 18, told NBC News he wore the dress as a statement to prove that 'clothing is really gender-less' and 'that it has no meaning', in an interview on Monday.
The Franklin high school senior told the broadcaster he was harassed by Johnson while taking pictures with his boyfriend Jacob Geittmann, who later posted the exchange on TikTok.
'I explained [why I was wearing the dress] to him and he continued to just call me names and just follow me', Stevens explained.
He said the young couple first noticed Johnson making 'homophobic' comments within the pairs earshot while they were taking pictures at the Harpeth Hotel in downtown Franklin.
The telemedicine CEO then approached Stevens and Geittmann and questioned why the 18-year-old had chosen to wear a dress.
Johnson later allegedly told Stevens 'you have hair on your chest, you shouldn't be wearing a dress'.
Geittmann then took out his phone and started filming the exchange, during which Johnson said he thought the 18-year-old senior looked 'disgusting'.
In the footage, a clearly distressed Stevens can he heard telling Johnson: 'I chose what I want to wear so you can f*** off'.
While Geittmann is filming, Johnson apparently tries to knock the phone out of his hand, but ends up hitting Stevens.
Onlookers attempt to intervene, pleading with Johnson to stop, saying: 'It's just prom. It's kids, it's a bunch of kids. Come on, dude.'

To discover who rules you find out who you can not criticize.
Uhhhh ... I dont't think that's the way it works.
A woman shall not wear a man's garment, nor shall a man put on a woman's cloak, for whoever does these things is an abomination to the Lord your God. Deuteronomy 22:5
And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a debased mind, to do those things which are not fitting; being filled with all unrighteousness, sexual immorality, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, evil-mindedness; they are whisperers, backbiters, haters of God, violent, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, undiscerning, untrustworthy, unloving, unforgiving, unmerciful; who, knowing the righteous judgment of God, that those who practice such things are deserving of death, not only do the same but also approve of those who practice them. Romans 1:28-32
what i mean is he can certainly tell the aggressor to shut up.
don’t understand folks that think every thought in their head needs to come out of their mouths.
It used to be the school bullies would take care of that business.
Do the schools have bullies anymore?
My oh my!
Thank you for that!
And the kid had the right not to be hit by the CEO.
The kid will sue the now unemployed CEO and the kid will win.
What gave Johnson the right to hit the kid?
Do you feel defensive of the 18 year olds deviant behavior? Or only of his right to engage in deviant behavior?
No deviant 18-year-old kid has the right to not here opinions about his deviant behavior. I don’t know where you get that bizarre idea.
Yer meen! I'm tellin on YOU!
okay.
If you buy that 3% of the population is gay, then in a school of 2000 kids, 60 of them are gay.
Since they have been told to be “proud”, you have a sizable group in just about every high school with a lot of social power.
If you look at them sideways you are labeled a bigot and ostracized.
There is no positive reinforcement for conservative students in public schools.
It is going to get worse before it gets better.
Of course, I didn't care to know. Are they related to Sec. of Trans Pete ButtPlug? 😀
‘clothing is really gender-less’ and ‘that it has no meaning’,
Then why so sensitive?
Congrats, Mom and Dad.
What. A. Loser.
> Or only of his right to engage in deviant behavior? <
As I noted in my post #55, his behavior is harmful to both him and to society. But yeah, he’s got that right.
“Her” butt’s flat. Like a guys.
What about Tim Curry, who played Dr. Frank N. Furter (a scientist)?
I feel the tidal wave coming on that’s called “Mesohone.”
Thanks.
Definitely population control.
