Actually, I think most of these kids are 16+.
But I don't think that a school which promotes heterosexuality as the appropriate orientation for its students is guilty of promoting illegal underage practice of that orientation. And certainly the sex-ed classes in all the regular NYC public high schools are actively endorsing underage activity, so I don't think you'll get far with singling out HMHS for criticism on that point.
high school usually starts at 9th grade = 14 year old. But school could be different. Cant we not make the age of consent 18 for deviant behavior?
Schools don't promote heterosexuality as the appropriate orientation for students any more than schools promote oxygen as the appropriate gas to breathe.
You only need to spend inordinate amounts of time trying to promote something when it is obviously a bad idea.
Shalom.
The legal age of consent in New York is 17 years old.
And, there is a difference between providing sexual
education and determination of sexual orientation and
classification which will undeniably remain part of
the public record ad infinitum. This school is a
ticket to sue. It will cost many more millions.
If anyone has a sixteen year old in New York then
here is their free ride. Enter the school as gay
and then after graduating find out the truth and
repent your evil ways. Blame the school for corruption
of youths, which did not even possess the legal right
to make a determination of their sexuality, in facilitating
the creation og a de facto determination by
the school system through an illegal segregation scheme.
BINGO!!!!!!!!!!
