'Gay Month' At Schools Irks Some Parents
POSTED: 4:03 pm EDT September 26, 2006 The Philadelphia School District has designated October as Lesbian And Gay History Month, which has some parents upset.
Parents became aware of the designation when the district sent out more than 200,000 calendars.
The calendars also listed September as Hispanic Heritage Month, February as African-American History Month as Philadelphia School District and May as Asian Pacific-American Month.
The district told NBC 10 that were no scheduled events or activities planned to mark the ocaasion.
But some parents were upset after receiving the calendars.
"Gay and Lesbian Month? That's sexuality - that's a preference," said Nicola Rucker, 41, a mother of two students told the Philadelphia Daily News.

If I was African American or Asian, I'd be highly insulted that I received the same exact honor as gays and lesbians.

I will recognize "black history month" and "gay and lesbian history month" just as soon as we get an official "white history month" and a "heterosexual history month"
Man! ...the stomach-churning hypocrisy of the left.

as soon as we get an official "white history month" and a "heterosexual history month"Surely you jest. Everyone knows EVERY month since the beginning of time has belonged to whitey and straight people. It's high time they get theirs.</theirJustification>

I'd be all for a gay month, just so the school can get it out of the way and have a homo-free rest of the year.
