School bans poofs, sheep from prom

The latest hubbub down under is whether or not a leading boy’s school in Queensland should allow its Senior Students to take their gay partners to the school formal.

Naturally this has Gay Rights groups and church groups squealing loudly, and those of us in the middle are covering our ears.
The school itself is trying to remain PC while at the same time giving the request a big fat thanks but no thanks. Its official line is that young men need to learn to interact with the opposite sex.

Now, correct me if I’m wrong, but I have never met a poof who has any difficultly making friend with the ladies. Heck, I once thought about pretending to be a butty just to try and get in one chicks knickers in my student days. And girls love having a queer friend, since Will and Grace it is almost an important fashion accessary, like a handbag only more stylish and fragrant, and with less room for Tampons.

Now I personally think that if a young kid is gay and is brave, yes brave, enough to admit it in an environment like that than he should be applauded. If anything it might make some of the others more tolerant.
I also believe that school formals should be a place where a young man can express his basest desires. Heck, if I could do it all over again I’d have taken a one legged hooker, assuming that is that Heather Mills was available. I know that some of my mates would have spent their last school looking for a dwarf or willing sheep.

Anyhow, I digress.
