Should lesbian student be allowed to wear tux in yearbook photo?

Recommended Posts

>well I think that holds true only if the liberals shut up and go away.

Indeed. Fortunately, us liberals support the constitution over mob rule. (Which, BTW, has almost nothing to do with this issue.)

Yes it does, the school wants to be for uniform dress in the yearbook were everybody looks good and propper. I do believe she has the right to put on a tux for the yearbook but it is not my yearbook. The students and faculty should decide what is in the yearbook and everyone needs to comply with what is voted for. that is what a democracy is all about. the liberals that want to sue over this are actually taking away the rights of the rest of the school to have their yearbook be presented the way they want.

It would be like them coming to my shop and telling me what my employees can wear. they can stipulate things concerned with safety and within the guidelines of the law, but not that an employee can wear something just because they are gay, trans or whatever. If the school decides that she wears a dress for code and that is what the majority wants and it is within the guidelines of the law then she can wear a dress or not be in the yearbook.

Good example. If you owned the store, you could tell them what to wear. If my tax dollars are paying your salary, I'm going to wear what I like.



This is where analogies don't always work. I think in a public sector job, where the office manager or department head dictated a particular dress code for all employees, that code would probably be upheld - within the bounds of reasonableness and the scope of limiting factors such as anti-discrimination laws, etc.

shes just a punk ass kid. the whole lez thing might just be a phase anyway. I say let her do it and then if she goes back to the other side of the street she can spend the rest of her life living it down... LOL. A tux.

Somebody else said that it could be a "making noise for the sake of making noise." I agree. Sounds like exactly what is going on. If they let her wear it though they may be opening a can of worms because it must be applied universally, which means we may see some hairy ass legs poking out from under a skirt soon afterwords. ;)

I was at a fancy dinner for our board of trustees (all multi-millionaires, some billionaires) last night and the waitpersons of both genders were wearing tuxes with black ties. None of the rich folks or their wives seemed to think it inappropriate, nor did I.

Didn't playboy bunnies wear tuxes? At least you knew nobody was gonna stick a dick in your ear.

What is interesting is that this school actually recently held a "backwards beauty pageant" where the girls dressed as guys and the guys dressed as girls. Also, nowhere in the handbook does it say that women must wear the drape.

This is what a photography drape looks like. http://www.studioaccentsplus.com/velvet-drapes.html

Frankly, when I was in high school, I'd have vetoed that thing too! It's too sexy, it's off the shoulder, and you have to wear a tube top underneath to make sure the photographer doesn't see your boobs. I wouldn't have been comfortable being photographed like that. I'm glad our senior photos were in caps and gowns.

Here's one to chew on.

A local kid had a 10' python as a pet.

He was also a nationally rated competitive shooter. He had placed reasonably well in his age class at several national competitions (both with a pistol and a rifle).

His senior picture (published in the yearbook) had him prone (laying down) with his competition AR-15 and holstered pistol, with the snake draped over his shoulders and the rifle.

It was what he chose as representative of himself at that time in his life.

So he was wearing a snake tie. I don't see the problem.



He also had 2 guns.

Note: I don't have a problem with it either.

I thought including the snake was a bit odd, but it was his pic, his choice.

I also shot a couple practice matches against him.
Got my butt seriously kicked.

I myself had my grad pics with me in my old rodeo gear and a revolver with no issues (probly a small town thing)

As far as the tux thing why not no harm no fowl. To address the guy wanting to wear a dress or skirt again i guess we were just comfertable with our sexuality that would have been tryed but non of my friends had anything to match there pumps ;)
also the 300 lbs naturalist....how did you get my ex wifes pics???

You have a horrifically poor understanding of a) what rights are and b) how a constitutional democracy works. It's actually scary that you can think like this.
Do you want to have an ideagasm?

It's the same logic that dictates that, in America, Christians are discriminated against and the "war on Christmas" happens every year. Those who watch Fox "News" 24/7 tend to actually believe it.

Back in the 1950s, a bunch of liberal Negroes sued to take away the right of the rest of the people to have the front seats of buses the way they want. They managed to win. It's been downhill ever since.
