BFD of the month

Pushing the envelope just as high school seniors are supposed to do, an 18-year-old wore a dress to his prom and was turned away. He then put on male drag over the dress, got in, and removed the suit. Then he was "escorted out by a security guard." When he returned to school the next day, a school cop gave him a $250 ticket for disorderly conduct.

It doesn't say whether the other students supported him or not. And judging solely from the article, this is not so much a case of gender discrimination as a kid just cutting up and the adults over-reacting. Anyway, I hope that kid fights the ticket like hell, and moves to New York where he becomes a rock star. Stupid adults.
