Homecoming season is once again upon us, which can only mean one thing: stories about transgender high school kids running for king and queen.
At Richland High School in Johnstown, Pa., senior Kasey Caron is fighting for the right to run for homecoming king, reports area CBS affilaite WTAJ.
Caron identifies as male and is currently in some undetermined early stage of gender reassignment surgery.
School district officials have been reticent to allow Caron on the homecoming king ballot because he apparently still has a vagina and thus remains legally female.
On the bright side, Caron is on the ballot as a homecoming king nominee.
On Monday night, Caron presented the case for why she should be allowed to run for homecoming king. The pitch included showing a Pennsylvania driver’s license which categorizes Caron as male.
School board members said they wanted more time to consider Caron’s request. School board attorney Timothy Leventry appeared to counsel against it.
“The law defines whether a person is male or female,” Leventry told The Tribune-Democrat. If you want to change legally to be a male in Pennsylvania, you have to have be certified by a physician who is qualified, and you have to have your birth certificate changed.”
The Advocate notes that a guidance counselor proposed the bid for homecoming king bid when school started. Also, Caron’s family has been supportive. Supportive family members include two mothers, one father, some siblings and a transgender godmother.
The school board may have a public vote in late September. In any case, it will make a decision sometime before Richland High’s homecoming festivities, which are scheduled for the weekend of October 5.
Meanwhile, in Huntington Beach, Calif., male student Cassidy Lynn Campbell is seeking to become Marina High School’s first transgender homecoming queen.
“Yesterday at school, during fourth period, the announcements came on to name the official top ten [nominees] and I was one of them,” Campbell gushed to CBS Los Angeles. “I was like, ‘Oh my gosh! Are you serious? I actually got it?’”
“No matter what kind of girl you are, even if you are transgender, you can still be a queen,” Campbell added.
Campbell explained that he was born with various male appendages but has knew that he was actually a girl even when he was very young. Back then, Campbell was going by his given name, Lance. He picked up the new moniker three years ago.
The student’s mother told CBS Los Angeles that she has accepted the gender transition.
“It’s amazing. I just think how far we have all come,” the unidentified mom said.
The 2013 Marina High School homecoming queen will be announced on September 20.
Today, unfortunately, we have those cutesy "single-parent homes", where sex deviance is ignored, or worse yet, encouraged by sex deviate parent(s).
I learned something yesterday that bugged me. The transgender folks, who of course have to use this extra tag on their sexuality, like “I am a transgendered male” if you were a girl who identifies as male, seem to have been upset that they were not “normal”.
Meaning that a male was a male, while a female who identified as male was a “transgender male”.
So they made up a name for normal people. We apparently are not “male” and “female” anymore. We are “cisgender male” and “cisgender female”.
If anybody ever actually calls me that, I’m going to act insulted and get mad at them and yell at them to stop calling me names. When they try to say what it means, I’m going to yell at them that I am responsible for my own identification, and that they have no right to try to label me.
“The law defines whether a person is male or female,”
I’ll be the first to say this is not only laughably ridiculous, it is also dangerous. Remember, at one time the law defined whether a person was human or not, declaring certain races to be subhuman. When people say ‘the law’ in this context, they mean ‘the government’. The government determines what gender you are. Regardless of the facts, the government can create a false identity for you, and if anyone questions it or refuses to affirm it, the government will arrest them for ‘discrimination’ which has become a type of thought crime.
“It’s amazing. I just think how far we have all come,”
It’s amazing. I just think how sick, delusional, and abusive certain parents are.
Makes you wonder what their moms were exposed to during pregnancy.
“I’ll be the first to say this is not only laughably ridiculous, it is also dangerous. Remember, at one time the law defined whether a person was human or not, declaring certain races to be subhuman.”
I’ll be the first to repeat it — because it needs repeating.
puke
Not transgendered, a boy dressed up like a girl or a girl dressed up like a boy.......or just a kid wanted to cause trouble.
The funny thing is, the only reason these people could ever get to be homecoming king or queen is precisely BECAUSE they are abnormal. If they were truly accepted as what they claim to be, they would lose to the more popular and normal versions of each sex. It’s like no fat girl gets to be homecoming queen, but some ugly guy is going to get it because he identifies as female. (BTW, I do realize that some transgenders do a great job of “looking good”).
“School district officials have been reticent to allow Caron on the homecoming king ballot because he apparently still has a vagina”
He? What?
She has a vagina, and will ALWAYS have one. It cant be removed or she will die!
Hey Lance, two words. “Prostrate Cancer”.
What does the “cis” refer to?
Something that rotted their brains.
Gender reassignment?
Do they have a way to change an ‘x’ to a ‘y’, or a ‘y’ to an ‘x’?
Because if they can’t do that, then they aren’t ‘reassigning’ anything; they are merely mutilating a human body with drugs and a knife.
Apparently prenatal is very important for this sort of thing. If there are triggers for the males it would make sense there are triggers for the female as well.
Daddy didn’t pay enough attention to them.
I hope you are sitting down Livius. It means we do not identify withe “gender diverse experience”. They feel bad for us.
“The law defines whether a person is male or female...”
No, BIOLOGY defines whether a person is male or female.
It’s so beautiful to finally see our American royalty becoming more like european royalty, all pervy and such.
I wish we were still anti-royalty like.
I think people are voting for the disturbed as a way to help them feel loved so they can drop the self-hatred and grow up whole. Or to piss off the establishment...like teens are likely to do.

and changing the plumbing does not change anything there.
PLUS, they have no right to force others to pretend along with their delusions
At least some of those people -- probably not many, but still -- do have problems like extra chromosomes (Klinefelter's syndrome).
