She's just a girl that wanted to be homecoming Queen...just like every other girl in the pageant.

<div>"Gay" people should not feel the need to defend themselves, and to me they shouldn't do it at all ... Just like straight people don't. That right there is what I believe in ... and when people lose the desire to know, or need to define themselves sexually to others? Everyone wins.
 
I drive a Ford ... Does anyone really care? So why would I say it?

Why is "gay" often incorrectly capitalized by people?

 

 

Oh, and Ford = found on road dead.

Some on this board are truly pathetic.

 

That said, congratulations to her. Or him. I dunno. But that was really nice of the students to crown her. When I was in school, the only girls you saw winning Homecoming Queen were the fake-tanned plastic-like barbies.

I think Bridgewater at 3 is better value than Mack at 3, yes.

It has become somewhat of a title as of late.

I'm thinking in Sammy's case...it's because it was the first letter of a new sentence. Those are pretty much always capitalized.. :whistling:

<div>I really couldn't care less about gender, or sexual preference. I don't get why anyone wants to know, or cares to publicly state their "Life" choices, or "inner" gender.
 
When someone comes out (so to say) I feel like it must be some form of selfish act that I don't understand. I take it in the same sense that someone would state that they are straight. ... I don't need to know, because I think you are normal, and that is not because I have even one ounce of malice towards either. You are you, I accept that without knowledge of way more than those type of "orientations". That type of personal knowledge is so far at the bottom of my care list that it fell off when I added which type of oil to use in my lawn mower.

I am with you Sammy. To each their own on the choice the make. But I don't get the need to "come out", and make it be known what you prefer to everyone.

I agree with you as far as gay people are concerned. I think we as a society have mostly moved beyond the point where a gay person should feel compelled to declare their sexuality publicly. On the other hand, considering the discrimination, ridicule and downright abuse that was common as recent as a decade ago, I understand why some people did it, and that was often to let others know they weren't alone, and there would be support for anyone who wanted to stop living a lie.

 

As for transgendered people, I don't think we're there yet, but I also don't think that's what this girl was doing. She was already "out", this was more of a situation where her classmates were showing their support. I think there is a difference.

 

I understand your point(s), and I wouldn't say that I disagree. When there is no point to be made is when we will have finally evolved. I am happy for her, just like I would be happy for any home coming queen. The fact that we (people) think that the show of support is needed is the problem. Me personally, I don't want to treat her special, because she isn't ... she is normal. Isn't that the way it should be? ... treating everyone like they are normal because they "are". When we (people) stop believing it necessary to shine a light on acts of acceptance will be the point that society in general catches up to the way I think, and the way I think it should be.
 
I understand we aren't there yet, and I have to admit that I didn't read the article. I would rather there be no article to read in the first place. I don't want to believe her winning home coming queen was any form of a gesture of her classmates support for anything less than what it should be for any other young lady that will or has won home coming queen. We don't have to make it different, we have to make it normal.

I like reading articles about homecoming queens.

I'm trying to make myself more informed and less opinionated.

Stop saying whatever stupid thing you're talking about and pay attention to all the interesting things I have to say!

In before TMD tries to explain this one away.

Oh, and Ford = found on road dead. 

 

Because in the english language we capitalize the first letter in each sentence?

Yeah, I overlooked that...

 

However, its funny that we'll all pretend that I didn't have a point there. 

 

"gay" is often capitalized (even when its not the first word of a sentence) and that is incorrect usage.

I rarely notice gay being capitalized by anyone.  I will make sure to look out for it and belittle them if I do see it though.

Stop nit picking...







I have to say...I've never really noticed it either way. Is there a reason this bothers you?

The only time I've seen it capitalized has been when LGBT is explained, and then it is appropriate.

 

The bottom line here is that he's deflecting his attention away from his bone headed mistake, and it was caught here before he could edit it.

Yes there is a reason....but I'll PM you with the detail, since it might border on "politics" if I say what I'd like to say on here....
