Transgender Prom King - NOT

[OneFinger]

Michigan won’t be getting a transgender king this year. A Michigan high school refuses to crown a transgender girl “Homecoming King” and now she and several of her classmates are extremely upset over that decision.

The Post Chronicle states that Michigan’s Mona shores High School held voting for their “Homecoming King and Queen”. The transgender teen, Oakleigh Marie Reed, 17, received more votes than any of her male counterparts to be king. The only problem is that the Reed is registered in school files as a girl and so she is ineligible to be “Homecoming King.”

I admire him for running and applaud the support he's getting from classmates.

I agree, plus he won in a fair election. I also had seen this story on a cable news show. It is a shame when the schools teaching our kids are more homophobic than the kids they are supposed to help guide in life. Looks like the school needs to learn from the kids.

Just a note: Homophobic and transphobic are two very different things.

There are plenty of people who are born women who transition into males but still have sex with males and vice/versa. Wanting to change your gender has nothing to do with whom you want to fuck.
