prom thing!!! must make the real girls in that school feel quite, well, unattractive, but it this thing won, maybe they are...I think a lot of these meaningless title elections in high school end up as a big joke. People voted for a boy out of the Beevis and Butthead-brand humor.
The dude snatched the victory from the girls. Sick puppies.
Hooray for that!
okayyyy...hmmm...which one is the Transgender?

“Reporting live from Westminster” means they still don’t have their own football stadium.
Our nickname for Marina High School was “The Rock.”
I can’t even find a picture of it on the ‘net.
Seriously, it looks like a prison, complete with moat which is actually a flood control ditch.

I'm not going to join in the chorus here of making fun of the youngster. This is a mixed-up kid who is obviously getting crappy parenting - enabled further by a feckless school faculty who allow this boy to come to class presented as girl.
Used to be that sissies got beat up in school and they usually ended up "manning up" and was the better for it in the long run. Now they put on dresses and get treated like "special" people. Not sure that's a change for the good.
Now I'm not condoning bullying but the world is full of men who as boys were tormented in school for being "sissy" and the experience caused them to go out there and over-achieve, making six-figure salaries and having more girls than they can handle hanging off their arms while the big-shot jocks who bullied them end up going bald early pumping gas and stocking lumber at Home Depot for a living, telling little old ladies that the mousetraps are in aisle 7.
What I'm saying is, this kid is making a mistake by trying to turn himself into a girl just because he feels like he is condemned to be a sissy. Not all men have to be good at sports and know how to bang nails into wood with a hammer.
This whole "boy turns into a girl" stuff never ends well anyhow. By the time you are 30, you end up looking like Robert Plant in size 12 heels and your entire sex life is one depraved train wreck after another. Face it sissy boys, you will never be mothers and true women. Make the best of what nature handed you and eventually some woman will marry you and you can have a decent life after all. Let the woman wear the pants in the family if that's your thing but at least you can have a couple of kids and respect yourself when you get up in the morning and look in the mirror.
As for this "homecoming queen" nonsense, it's just an extension of political correctness run amok. I can remember gym class from when I was going to school and I was always one of the kids picked last for a team because when I was a boy, I was tall and gangly and sucked at sports. Then the gym teacher, thinking he was being benevolent, announced that he would pick the teams, so that "others would have a chance of being picked first." Sure enough, I was one of the first people "picked" for a team but instead of feeling special, I felt even worse because now even the gym teacher has singled me out as being a "loser." It would have been better to have been picked last by a peer.
Same situation here. Boy wears a dress to school and in order to create an artificial climate of "tolerance", it is decided to pick him (ahead of the girls) to be "home-coming queen." The practice does no favors for anybody. Not for both the students and especially not for the victim du jour.

The sickness in our Nation is rising. Unless the people stand up against this, America will be unrecognizable in 25 years.
I am sorry this young person is mentally ill. I am sorrier still that our Government will not accept that and allow this young person to get the help they need.
This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
