Lambda Legal Challenges Denial of Rights of Feminine Gay Male Student to Wear Dress to Prom

"(Gary, IN, December, 12, 2007) — In court papers filed today in the Northern District Court of Indiana, Lambda Legal says that West Side High School violated Kevin "K.K." Logan's First Amendment rights when it barred him from his prom for wearing a dress.

K.K. Logan attended West Side High during his junior and senior year and expressed a deeply rooted femininity in his appearance and demeanor. Both classmates and teachers at the school supported him in his daily attendance dressed in clothes typically associated with girls his age."

Regardless of how everyone feels about a boy coming to the dance wearing a dress, the principal should've been consistant in applying the policy. She should not have allowed the girl in who was wearing a tux.

The part that gets me is this kid has been wearing female attire all year at school.

Waiting for the prom to do something about it is a little late.

BCP is right. back in the 50's if a boy showed up wearing female attire we would have taken it and run it up a flagpole.

I would be really surprised that it was not treated in close to the same manner today.

Let's not call it "making fun of." Let's be more PC and call it "character development." The other kids were only trying to help him develop his character. It's so hard to believe that a boy would want to dress up in a dress. What is going wrong in this world? I, as a father, would never let my son wear a dress.

Okay, like some corporation is going to take kindly to this guy showing up for work in a skirt. :rolleyes:

I get really sick of these alternate people who refuse to assimilate even a smidge just for the sake of propriety. Men don't wear dresses and that's the end of the story. There are no ifs, ands or buts about that - MEN DON'T FRIGGIN' WEAR DRESSES.

PERIOD.

Nobody cares if you're gay or straight or what your problem is. But don't doll yourself up like some freak and expect everyone to respect you, because that's not the way it works.

Yo, gay dudes - THIS is what the breeders are talking about when they complain about gays wanting to shove it in their face. If there's a dress code, there's a dress code. Like it would kill this kid to show up appropriately attired.

:rolleyes:

I'd like to know what sort of "feminine attire" they were letting him wear all year. It might not have been a dress. Who knows? Also, is he happy being a boy or does he want to be a girl? It says he is gay so I suppose he wants to stay a boy. Either way this was really not handled properly. They should have treated him and the girl wearing a tux equally and they should have stopped him wearing feminine clothes from the very beginning if they were going to stop him at the Prom.

Ah, but pants and such are routinely worn by females these days. What is a tux, after all, but a dressier suit? And women wear suits all the time. It doesn't mean they are lesbians.

But a guy in a dress is a definite gay person. And since there's a school dress code that prohibits clothing advertising sexual orientation, guess what buddy? Take the dress off and put on some normal clothes.

Where is Hank Hill when you need him? :mad:

If he wanted to wear a dress, he shoulda worn a kilt. Maybe a nice pink one with lace? that way he could have expressed his alternate lifestyle and still worn male clothing. I know a kilt is not a dress, but still...

Dude I knew in college wore dresses around campus. He could light a soaking wet match at 50 yards.

This kid needs to be beaten. Principal needs to be beaten too. Females have been wearing tuxs for years and they have become accepted style. Men wearing dresses has not. Should have put a stop to this crap at the beginning of school.

other than to start the very crap that he started by dressing like a girl in the first place.
there was no reason.

when you go looking for a specific response, dont act surprised when you get it.

now, put on your damn pants and go on with your life.

If he's that extremely feminine he's not gay, he's a transexual.

Not to be confused with transvestite. Many of them are actually straight (as Eddie Izzard likes to conveniently point out).
