Gay Teen Voted Prom Queen at L.A. High School

An openly-gay, teenage boy was just voted "Prom Queen" at Los Angeles' Fairfax High School in a campaign that began as a stunt -- but ended up spurring discussion on the campus about gender roles and teen popularity.
Sergio Garcia, 18, was crowned queen Saturday night at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel.
"I feel invincible," Garcia said in his tiara and charcoal-gray tuxedo.
A few days earlier, he gave a speech that won over some cynics and led to an ovation and his unlikely victory.
"At one time, prom may have been a big popularity contest where the best-looking guy or girl were crowned king and queen," Garcia told a gymnasium full of seniors. "Things have changed and it's no longer just about who has the most friends or who wears the coolest clothes. I'm not your typical prom queen candidate. There's more to me than meets the eye."

I am sure this will be a great achievement for him to put on his resume. And I bet his parents are proud that their son is the biggest Queen in L.A.
Btw, Fairfax is a highly hispanic and black school.
Obama should invite him to the WH since they have much in common.

Unfortunately, I pass that HS when I head to the Grove. It is majority Hispanic, but the neighborhood is mixed. The queer will probably be the queen of the gay parade in the summer..

That's probably why Homosexuals contract AIDS.

If he thinks they voted for him out of some sense of progressive thinking he is deluding himself. They voted him “queen” to make fun of him.

They voted him “queen” to make fun of him.I think that cruelty would be worse than the mere insanity of the obvious conclusion.

Nothing new here. Keith Partridge did this in the 70s.

Nothing new here. Keith Partridge did this in the 70s. Good point. And the fashion cycle is +/- 30 years.

Except back then it was a gag.
To: the invisib1e hand
It was still a political statement. Just for wimmin’s issues.
