I don’t know about you but I was straight before I was sexually active.
I imagine many voted just to create the novelty result, without any real regard for whether or not they actually, personally, liked either of the “princes”. One only has to remember their own high school days to realize how much, and how easily, students that age manufacture, join or become part of a “causes”, even trivial and silly ones.
Okay, how did a guy get nominated for Queen? That’s gender specific. He wasn’t even eligible. This is now obviously sexual in nature rather than just about electing a King and Queen - they were elected as a gay couple, not as two students winning the respective titles for their homecoming. Are you really unable to see the very clear distinction here? Think, please.
The liberal indoctrination is working swimmingly at Davis High School. I’m surprised Governor Schwartzenegger didn’t show up to join in the festivities.
As ridiculous a statement as you can find. Here's a few more to go along with it:
"Thanksgiving day dinners aren't about tradition, but rather they are about giving thanks and spending time eating a meal with your family."
"Presidential inaugural balls aren't about tradition, but rather a bunch of people getting together to dance after the President is inaugurated."
"Sweet 16 parties aren't about tradition, but rather a person and their friends and family getting together to celebrate his/her 16th birthday."
There was someone at my HS who acted gay. Really gay. He was heavily into drama, spoke with a noticable lisp. Some other kids (mostly but not all boys) made fun of him when he wasn't around, but never, so far as I know, to his face. I didn't know him; he was a year older. I was around him fairly frequently because I was big into music, played in all the show bands, spent my free time in the band room.
Turned out, he was gay. He died of AIDS in the '80's.
I've lost track who this is to, but maybe some don't want us to, but we do, or did, it's late, anyway I'd guess somewhere between the junior and senior year, a good number have had sex. Including me. Wasn't the best sex, but hey, I drove a sports car.
The two are nothing but ‘suck-ups’!
“If only they knew, that for the vast majority of kids who voted for them, they are a joke and are being laughed at behind their backs.”
I hope you’re right, but I don’t think so. Kids today have been trained to think of GLBTs as “victims” and that this movement constitutes some type of civil rights movement. Anyone who opposes it is hateful, etc., etc., and aren’t they heroic for supporting them.
I think that we’ve gone far down the slippery slope. Like alcoholics, we’ll need to hit bottom before things get better. I hope I’m wrong.
“King & Queen are sort of gender specific, aren’t they?”
The feminists tell us that gender is socially constructed. Nothing in reality supports it, but social policy is bent around this theory.
I think you’ve got something. I do think that despite lesbian activists, the direction this is going is anti-woman. There is a snide dismissal of women among a lot of homosexual display. Gay fashion designers delight in making women look absurd. Theater departments use women as objects of derision if at all. Women-hating is becoming less subtle in gay circles.
On the one hand, I don’t support beating up people. On the other hand, social stigmas serve a useful purpose. Using the anus for sexual purposes is very unhealthy from a public health standpoint and it’s good for public health to discourage the practice.
“the school authorities should cancel homecoming, and all other extracurricular activities. for the year. Teach those young punks a lesson.”
In this day and age, school authorities could be congratulating them.
I was told, but have been unable to confirm, that Selma High School (AL) chose a pregnant Homecoming Queen a few weeks ago.
On January 1, 2008, it will be mandatory to allow this to happen - in fact it will be against the law to discourage it. SB 777
All the more sad that you are bragging about it now.
Welcome to FR.
It is better to trust in God, than to trust in Princes.
Two “Kings” would be semantically equivalent, but there’s no historic precedent for that, which I am aware of.
Davis, CA is a college town, UC-Davis, half of the population consists of stdents, when you add in faculty and staff there is almost nothing else there. It is located between SF and Sacramento. In its politics, it makes San Francisco look like Midland, TX.
