Just because it wouldn't bother you doesn't mean it won't bother anyone else ßelals Girl Send a noteboard - 13/03/2010 06:38:03 PM
Cross-dressing makes many people uncomfortable and plenty of people don't think it should be done in public and especially not at a school sanctioned event. Obviously you are not one of them, but that doesn't make your perspective the majority's. There's no way to know that the majority of people attending wouldn't care unless you took a poll.

Not ALL of the US. There were same-sex couples at my prom. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 12/03/2010 12:26:24 AM 341 Views

Oh, it is definitely self-defense. Dannymac - 12/03/2010 05:52:50 AM 787 Views
That analogy is not apt. Dragonsoul - 12/03/2010 06:10:27 AM 848 Views
Er... beetnemesis - 12/03/2010 06:45:05 AM 722 Views

I think you mean "I'm afraid that again that analogy is not apt." snoopcester - 12/03/2010 02:45:23 PM 731 Views
That's right, I forgot to add that. Dragonsoul - 12/03/2010 03:23:25 PM 780 Views
It's a rather key piece of any attempted analogy, wouldn't you say? Sareitha Sedai - 12/03/2010 03:45:15 PM 679 Views
Again, you're right. Dragonsoul - 12/03/2010 03:59:13 PM 655 Views
Yup. Sareitha Sedai - 12/03/2010 04:02:26 PM 757 Views
Not really. Her point is that they should both be illegal. beetnemesis - 12/03/2010 07:01:47 PM 689 Views
Re: That analogy is not apt. Macharius - 12/03/2010 02:06:51 PM 738 Views

Absurd. Macharius - 12/03/2010 08:27:19 PM 756 Views
The rules were unjust. Dannymac - 13/03/2010 05:09:59 AM 795 Views
Wow, talk about proving my point! Cannoli - 12/03/2010 11:04:34 PM 896 Views

Why don't you show me where I said marriage is holy OR made a religious argument, you imbecile? Cannoli - 12/03/2010 10:32:42 PM 773 Views

Kind of a different can of worms then Isaac - 12/03/2010 03:20:35 AM 749 Views
What?! Now that is a can of worms I could see getting in a fight over. Tashmere - 14/03/2010 01:24:47 AM 731 Views
Hmm. Apparently it is legal to discriminate upon the basis of gender. Imagine that. Tashmere - 14/03/2010 02:45:51 AM 717 Views
It kind of makes sense, given the highly arbitrary and stereotypical nature of gender. Ghavrel - 14/03/2010 03:35:44 AM 648 Views
Re: What?! Now that is a can of worms I could see getting in a fight over. Isaac - 15/03/2010 02:01:00 AM 766 Views
I would love to argue with you Tashmere - 15/03/2010 11:03:48 AM 659 Views
It is a great case of Selective Outrage, IMHO Isaac - 12/03/2010 03:10:01 AM 807 Views
Maybe. Ghavrel - 12/03/2010 06:34:42 AM 803 Views

No no, I know how you feel. I'm just disinclined to have sympathy for the school. beetnemesis - 12/03/2010 11:28:35 PM 630 Views
Alternatively, I have little sympathy for the school, I just don't have much for her either Isaac - 12/03/2010 11:56:08 PM 745 Views
Don't you think you're sensationalizing this just a bit? Aemon - 12/03/2010 05:42:21 AM 729 Views
