Being gay in High School is a very tough thing in our society today. This year is no different. A Mississippi county school board banned 18 year old Constance McMillan,who wanted to wear a tux and bring her girlfriend. As well as a story of a gay senior in Miami who was crowned prom queen, however,was disowned by her family. Lesbian,bisexual and gay students face extremely cruel struggles in High School. Some are harassed and bullied, while others are accepted and nurtured. At this point,some of them create clubs, however, most remain closeted. I thought this article connected to what we were learning in class this week. It talks about how most lesbians, gays, bisexuals are bullied but what we say back to that is that "it gets better." I believe that we need to attack this issue now, other wise it will never change.
