>>14-year-old Natalie Young is openly lesbian <<
A 14 year old can't formulate the thoughts necessary to be a "lesbian." At that age they can, at best, indicate a liking of the culture (like Heavy Metal or Goth).
The idea that homosexuality, which is a lifestyle choice, should even be dealt with in Middle or High School is once again a sign of the encroachement of the Liberal culture on our youth.
My advice: Homeschool.

Seems to me there should be a Lawyer Barbie doll. She wears LAWSUITS on a daily basis.
(The penchant for suing over "First Amendment Rights" is what sickens me. What about the teacher's right to free speech?)

14-year-old Natalie Young is openly lesbianGive me a break. At that age there's no way you can be sure- I'm willing to bet that she was confused and some idjit shrink convinced her that she was gay.

What I don't understand is why is a teacher laughing at what a student is wearing ...?? Was the shirt meant to be taken "seriously" or was it a joke (like Crack Whore Barbie)?
Here's the Yahoo "Barbie Parodies" sub-category
Should the teacher not laugh at a student's shirt if he or she wore this:
Transvestite Barbie
Is this even acceptable attire for a classroom?
I can't post this picture because it is a geocities link (but I did post the link).
The picture that I find matching the term "lesbian barbie" (same picture on several websites) has her tied down to a bed completely naked being attended to by another naked Barbie. I won't be posting a link to that one.
Mattel has issued cease and desist letters to the parody sites so any "lesbian Barbie" t-shirt is a bootleg.

"That is not the most important issue here but if a jury decides to contribute to Natalie's college fund, all the better," Perez said.A very telling phrase about this situation. Perez is her lawyer.

Barbie's not a lesbian, she's a "nothing". I checked when I was seven.

The lawsuit, which was filed in the name of the student's mother, Kathleen Hodges, because Young is a minor, also seeks unspecified monetary damages.There you have it, the real motivation for filing this lawsuit.

Any little thing makes them find a lawyer "licket-d-split".
She is working on a cabinet in woodshop class. 100% tongue and groove construction.
