I appreciate what you are saying about kids who 'self-identify' as not XX or XY, and I support alternative schooling for many different reasons. Gender dysidentity is no reason to celebrate with such hoop-la.

How many of the hundreds (or thousands) of boys 'influenced' by Catholic priests thought that they were gay when the priests suggested it, and are now living painful lives as adults because of the damage done to their minds by a trusted adult.

And somehow conservatives aren't going ballistic about the existence of Catholic schools, even though that's where much of the abuse started. I guarantee that more boys have been molested by Catholic clergy in NYC this year, than are going to be enrolled in this expanded "gay high school". And those clergy are violating a trust, and acting with vile hypocrisy. The people who run the gay high school are honestly trying to help these kids, being totally upfront about who they are and what they believe, and probably not sleeping with any of the kids ("out" gay men have a lot more outlets for their desires, than closeted ones such as gay priests, and are less likely to take advantage of youth in their care).
