remember that gay kid who wanted to take her girlfriend to the prom a bit ago?

Well the school sent her and just a few other kids (some with disabilities) to a fake prom, while the rest of the student body went to a private prom. (vomiting space here)

sigh.

this makes me want to find out if there's places locally that do a gay and gay friendly prom and if they need folks to volunteer/chaperone. I could do that. For girls in tuxes and boys in dresses and everyone, dammit.

Absolutely disgusting.

At least the comments I read seem to overwhelmingly support her and reject the small-minded stupidity of the people who pulled this shit.

ETA: Both my kids were/are members of their HS GSA - a welcome organization on OUR campus.

Yeah, I saw this a day or two ago and was furious.

I hope something nice happens to Constance...after all of this shit, she SO deserves something positive to counteract the bad stuff.
