Prom Canceled Because of Homosexuality

I log onto yahoo on a daily basis and I love reading the articles that first pop up when you go to the website. This one however, did not bring a smile to my face. A high school in Mississippi canceled thier senior prom because of a lesbian, and her cross-dressing girlfriend. I, obviously, think this is ridiculous. Her girlfriend wanted to dress in a tuxedo. That's all, they were going as a couple. I can't see how that would interfere with anyone else at the prom. If people have a problem with it, don't look. It's not like the gay community is trying to turn everyone in the world homo! People are working against the rights of gays and lesbians. This is from the article: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_lesbian_prom_date

-A Feb. 5 memo to students laid out the criteria for bringing a date to the prom, and one requirement was that the person must be of the opposite sex

-Presgraves said his organization hears about school districts that prohibit same-sex prom dates and gay-straight alliance clubs at schools. He said those kind of policies are detrimental to gay students.

-"It sends a message that these students shouldn't be treated the same," Presgraves said.

In my literature class today we had to do speeches. Three people did speeches on homosexuality. Two were males and were against it. One was a female and supported it. The males kept saying what can a girl do for you? They can do as much as a man could. I never understood that. I have been in a very happy relationship with a female, and she gave me everything I needed. A girl can't do as much as a guy could. Lesbian couples now days can have children together also! Anything is possible. My whole day has been a conflict with who I am. I'm tired of people trying to change me. I am a lesbian. I am very proud of being a lesbian. In fact, I embrace it. :)
