Spiritually speaking what do you think of a school in Georgia that kicked a kid out of school for cross dressing? They claim that the child was "a disruptive influence" and that since he didn’t want to change his clothes that he had to be removed from his high school. What do you think about this controversy? I for one think that the kid should be allowed to wear as he wants and that wearing womens clothes doesn’t cause disruption at all. Do you think he should be allowed back? I think so. I think that he has a constitutional privileged to wear as he wants as long as it doesn’t show any nudity and doesn’t present a vulgar message. They kicked him out because he wore a wig and high heels. That is not a good reason. That is discriminatory. How do you feel about this?

First of all the news article you link really has the story twisted. It even gets some facts wrong. Here is the original news from the local newspaper:

He is allowed back. The school never kicked the kid out. He has many, many supporters in the school - even teachers. The problem is just that the school doesn’t want his cross-dressing to be so disruptive to the school that the teachers cannot teach. The school agreed he could keep the feminine clothes but suggested he remove the bright pink wig. He agreed and then he just left.

The school wants him back and is willing to allow him to dress in feminine clothes as long as it doesn’t disrupt the class. I think the poor kid should return to school.

    Well, depending on the grade level I can see how that would be a distraction.
    But I think the punishment was too harsh. Way too harsh.

    It is settled law that students (in school) have less rights than out of school. The school has to provide a learning environment that is good for all students. His wearing a dress would be disruptive in a class and the school has the right to stop that behavior.

    He can go out and wear a dress anywhere else.

    I thought kids went to school to learn things not to show how little parental guidance they get at home. I guess schooling in the 60’s was different than now. Let them all dress in any way they like because it doesn’t really cause any disruption since the entire school will look like a Hollywood casting call for an insane asylum.

    I think he should be allowed to cross-dress, but students do have to abide by the school rules. Expelling him seems ridiculous, though.

    I think it was a good move, we need morals in this society. That is unnatural, immoral, and disruptive. Men and women aren’t the same and a man shouldn’t dress up as a woman, UNLESS it’s for a movie or a show (i.e. Tyler Perry dressing up as Madea is OK).

    If its causing problems then i think the school was right to step in. They didnt kick him out, they asked him to dress like the boy he is or leave. Schools have all kinds of rules, there are alot of schools where im from that wont even allow hair color or certain tshirts that cause problems. When you are dealing with that many kids there has to be some sort of order & the staff has a duty to keep kids safe & provide kids with the best education possible & if something gets in the way of that they need to deal with it like this! So I support the school……….

    I think the school is right. The student’s cross-dressing IS a "disruptive influence". For that reason, the school has the right to order the student to dress properly - or be removed from the student body until he dresses properly.

    Students MUST conform to the policies that the school is run by. This includes, among other things, proper attire.

    <<I for one think that the kid should be allowed to wear as he wants and that wearing womens clothes doesn’t cause disruption at all.>>

    The student’s cross-dressimg is disruptive. Therefore, he should not be allowed to cross-dress AT SCHOOL. Outside of school, on the other hand - and if his parents approve for some God forsaken reason - he CAN cross-dress if he so chooses.

    <<Do you think he should be allowed back? I think so.>>

    He should ne allowed back so long as he is properly dressed.

    <<I think that he has a constitutional privileged to wear as he wants as long as it doesn’t show any nudity and doesn’t present a vulgar message.>>

    Outside, meaing "in public", yes.
    Inside an institution, such as a school, NO - not when the rules of that institution forbid it for a good reason.

    <<They kicked him out because he wore a wig and high heels. That is not a good reason. That is discriminatory. How do you feel about this?>>

    Wrong - that IS a good reason. A school is a place of learning; where some semblance of discipline MUST be maintained or else learning cannot be done.
