Johnny, Are You Queer?
Texas School bans Crossdressing Day for Homecoming; substitutes "Camo Day".

What the hell? Is Sadie Hawkins Day next? Lord knows, you don't want those ladies to be askin' the menfolks out, why- they might get uppity idears! Next thing ya know, they'd be wantin' ta vote and own property!
Crossdressing encourages homosexuality? Well, I guess all those pants my mom made me wear when I was growing up are to blame for why I had crushes on Julie Newmar and Tina Louise! It's the PANTS! They made me think girls were pretty!
This is totally ridiculous, crossdressing has nothing to do with homosexuality. Haven't these people ever seen Ed Wood? Just because some gay men like to crossdress doesn't mean every crossdresser is gay or even bisexual. This rigid kind of thinking is so backwards. I could have sworn we were living in 2004, not 1954.
For the record, the football team and cheerleader team at my high school would dress in drag for one day during homecoming week. They'd basically dress up as the opposite group- guys in cheerleader outfits, girls in football outfits. It was an old tradition that went back years. I doubt it made anyone gay, though I did later see two of the star football players making out with each other at the Bonham Exchange (the big gay club here in SA). But I am pretty sure they were gay before they dressed in drag. You can't be "turned gay". You either are or you aren't, you're just born that way.

I can't believe that people think that way. Haven't these people ever seen a movie? Just because Orlando Bloom got pointy ears and silk put on him for LotR doesn't mean it made him an elf once he takes the stuff off. (He's still sexy as ever, but that's different.) It's called acting! Sometimes people like to do stuff differently than they normally would, just for the sake of entertainment. Then again, most of these puritan f*ckt*rds probably don't watch movies or TV because they think they're ZOMG TEH DEVIL!!!!!111
