Here’s an incredible story about Oak Reed, a transgendered high school homecoming king candidate who would have won by a landslide had the school board not disqualified him, and the ensuing outcry from his majesty’s peers. These kids are NOT having it, and now the story’s getting national attention.

... when featured a day or two ago at netscape.aol.com, the young Reed had in fact won and been elected Homecoming King by his peers; the School Board over-ruled the Student Body vote, disqualifying him on the basis of his being "transgendered"; and no his peers are not taking this one lying down; they are actively campaigning to have him reinstated, and making all manner of problem for the School Administration.

Frankly, we think such laws are silly. They do young people more harm than good. How can you possibly ask questions on a gay forum without coming out to your parents if you need consent?
So it is up to you. If you post here we assume that you are of legal age to do so or have consent if not, and we do not want to know any different
