Constance McMillen
Short version of this article:
- She wanted to bring a same-sex date (and, heaven-forbid, wear a tux).
- School said no.
- ACLU informed school board “you’re violating rights.”
- School board cancels prom for entire school
- She files lawsuit
It happened in Canada (see Marc Hall) and was later made into quite a good little tv-film.
Here is the website of the school board that cancelled the prom for the “education, safety and well-being” of the rest of the student body.
Idiots.

Iam not gay but I thinkthis proves that religion is still backwards. Why do religions have controll over public policy and you better believe religion zedalots are behind this. I am atheist and proud of it but we cannot come out of our closet because religious bigitory in the USA.
Shame….
thats disgusting, that girls sex / personal life has absoulutily nothing to do with her skewl life she should be ableto bring who she wants and wear what she wants, i would rather see a girl covered and not exploting herself for everyone elses sake than see some little skank showing anything and everything, or a pregnant teenager , just what the world needs, more screwed up kids to raise more screwed kids , she should be idolized who gives 2 shits that she wants to be with a chick ?
