Yes, king and queen are gender specific and the is perhaps why the school named each of the students a “Prince.”

Don't you find that appalling, and insulting to the girls at that school? Should guys be allowed to enter beauty pageants, or show up as cheerleaders wearing the girls' uniforms? Why does every wholesome thing have to be wrecked to gratify these weirdos?

Yes, Puroresu, there are Boy Cheerleaders at most high schools.

What bothers me is that we are assuming that these two boys are having gay sex and we do not necessarily assume that the homecoming king is sleeping with the homecoming queen

Beat me to it! They should have been the Homecoming Queens for the Day!

The student body thinks they are too clever by half........nothing but political correctness run amok.

Furthermore, people are making the assumption that just because it is a gay couple that was elected that the two must be sexually active.

That being the case, are we to assume that all straight couples that are elected homecoming king and queen are also sexually active?

Apples and oranges.

Straight couples are, on the face of it, exhibiting normal, healthy relationships, and until fairly recently teenagers were at least expected to conform to societal restraints.

Homosexual couples, on the other hand, are exhibiting abnormal, unhealthy, deviant, disturbed behavior, and, since their very relationship is in defiance of societal taboo, societal restraints are less than even a minor inconvenience to them. Perverted sexual congress is implicit in their declaration of poofterhood.

Wouldn't they be voted the “Queens”?

Who leads during their dance?

A few people were gay and no one really cared.

Probably because they didn't get in your face about it...I just don't want any of this stuff waved about in my face or my childrens. If someones sexual preference is the same sex, please leave it in the bedroom. I'm sick of seeing these idiots make fools of themselves "prancing" around the Keys,NY City,S.Fran or in New Orleans with an agenda to flaunt...I have very good friends who are gay and hate the fact that these flaunters flaunt!

I think you missed the point.

I make no such assumption. However, I do find it appalling that yet another tradition is being destroyed for no better reason than to normalize a deviancy and to deconstruct our society into a nihilistic wasteland.

Do we want our high school kids to be having sex, gay or straight?

Homosexual couples, on the other hand, are exhibiting abnormal, unhealthy, deviant, disturbed behavior, and, since their very relationship is in defiance of societal taboo, societal restraints are less than even a minor inconvenience to them. Perverted sexual congress is implicit in their declaration of poofterhood.

You do realize that there are straight couples that exhibit behavior that could be considered "abnormal, unhealthy, deviant and disturbed?"

No one should be in my face flaunting their sexuality to me. I do not care if they are gay or straight, keep it in the bedroom where it belongs!

Most importantly, Keep the Nanny State out of my bedroom and out of my gay neighbor’s bedroom.

Homecoming elections are not a tradition, they are instead a popularity contest.

Then why do they have them every year?

You must have passed Cultural Marxism 101 with flying colors.

“you guys”

Now, while I was certainly disgusted by their dress(es) and behavior, I never physically harmed anyone.

I just knew about it.

No, never took that one at UT but do strongly believe that you should not care what I do in my bedroom, I should not care what you do in your bedroom and the government should not care what either of us do in the bedroom.

What on earth does what anyone does in their bedroom have to do with whether or not the homecoming king & queen tradition should be perverted to gratify two boys who want to be "princes"?
