Seriously? O_o Fucking annoying! And well, if he was wearing girl's clothing all year, they can't exactly be surprised about him showing up to the prom in a dress, so it can't be counted as ignorance.
Why do you think that is? I've never heard of that before, so it would be interesting to know. I mean, I'd think that since black people themselves have had problems being accepted they'd be more open-minded towards others in situations like that. Then again, it's been said that women and gays haven't exactly been battling their battles together either, to get more equal rights to straight males.
I just don't get why it is such a big fucking deal who someone loves or who they wish to be, as long as they are not hurting anyone. If it's two concenting people who are old enough for it, I don't give a fuck what they want to do together. Or, well, if they want to have more than people than that in their bed. It's their business and as long as they don't come ringing my doorbell to say that "Look! Look!" I can live my life and they theirs. Unless it's my friends, of course, they can come ring my doorbell, no matter what kind of relationship they're in. ;) And I usually prefer people who are true to themselves to those who pretend to be something they're not. I'm bisexual myself, although I don't go advertising it in RL - however, if someone asks, I'll tell them. I don't have an issue with that. If someone has an issue with it, it's their problem, not mine.
