    Default "I'll be a high school drop out before I change the way I dress"...

    Should students be able to cross-dress at school if they want to?

    That’s the question for a public school in Kennesaw, Ga., which is demanding one of its male students dress in a more “manly” fashion for class.

    As the Atlanta Constitution reports, 16-year-old transfer student Jonathan Escobar began attending North Cobb High School wearing wigs, make-up, skinny jeans, vintage tops and women’s flats.

    Packs of kids gathered around him in the cafeteria, and the school's assistant principal even blamed a fight on Escobar's theatrical attire.

    On his third day at the school, Escobar showed up wearing a pink wig. He was approached by a school official who told him he could either stop dressing in this typically feminine manner or consider home-schooling.

    Citing a school dress code that prohibits students from wearing clothing that may "contribute to a disruption of school functions," the school stands by its decision to confront Escobar on his outfits.

    But a student group on Facebook called "Support Jonathan" has over 1,000 members protesting the decision. Organizers have printed bright pink T-shirts emblazoned with that slogan, which many students plan to wear to school to show their displeasure, the Atlanta paper reports.

    Escobar sees the school's edict as an infringement on his creative expression. "If I can't express myself, I won't go to school," he told the paper. "I want to get the message out there that because this is who I am, I can't get an education."

    i head about the jonathan guy today on the radio while driving in to work. i don't get people like him nor do i want to understand them. he shouldn't be allowed to go to school like that. when i was in high school we had a far worse case of a cross dresser then he is. he would get picked on and got an ass whooping from the girls when he/she went into the girls bathroom. i just don't see how someone could be so fucked up in the head to be dressing that way.

    I see it as it being a distraction in class. what are the parents thinking letting their child take off to school in womens clothes anyway. To each his own and what he does on his own time is his decision but going to school this way should not be accepted.

    Apparently the parents didn't like the idea of his gay manners. He's from miami and he moved up to live with his older sister here because of his parents disapproval.

    his older sister (his guardian) is the one who had to give him permission to drop out, too, because you can't on your own until you're 18

    Great. So he will be uneducated and gay. I say duct tape him naked and throw him in the girls locker room right before a softball game.

    I personally say let him wear what he wants. If he defines himself as a female, let him do it. Most of the students would get used to it after a couple weeks and then it wouldn't be a big fuss anymore.

    It's BS, fuckstick like that just do it for the attention...which is all the more reason to not allow such shenanigans. I agree with the school. Someone needs to kick his little nancy ass....and the asses of his "supporters". Stupid kids these days....out of all the freedoms we have in this country...you're going to "protest" and mage a big deal because some shitstick is crying for attention?

    Is there really any question that people are getting dumber and dumber?

    ***** can still dress gay in uniform. he could put on the skirt and long socks with the wig and make up.. technically he'd be in uniform.. i think that'd be worse.. i also think you said this just cuz you want to see him in this attire

    shit if they have uniforms and he wears the female one, as long as he wears it correctly, then whatever. but then again, he's the one that didnt' want to be in school anymore. good luck going anywhere with a sophomore education and dressing like a girl

    Again, you guys don't get it. I've met people like this before - they don't do it for attention, its because they see themselves as female. This dude is probably on hormones and everything.

    If this went on back when I was in high school, I wouldn't have cared. As long as the gay/transgendered people don't hit on me.

    It doesn't matter why he does it. If you kick him in the balls he will get sick just like the rest of us. Therefore someone should kick him in the balls to remind him that he is a boy.

    edit: let it be known that I am against kicking non gays in the balls. That is mean

    You can't come to school dressed like "Barney" so he shouldn't be dressed like a woman.

    Seriously though, he isn't bothering anyone and from what I read he asked Cobb County if it was acceptable to wear girls clothes (which they approved) before he even registered to go to the school.

    I don't give a shit what he wears or if he's gay but this is school. You go there to learn, not for a fashion show. Dress decent for school and put on your wig as soon as the final bell rings.

    I think more schools should have uniforms. Kids are getting so damn stupid these days, they need to learn as much as possible instead of sitting around talking about some dude's dress.

    What does it even matter? Is this distraction any worse then the obnoxious kids who don't give a shit and are just there because no child left behind doesn't let the teachers kick them out? I mean as long as he/she/it isn't running around screaming LOOK AT ME LOOK AT ME!! Who cares? Like Jecht said they'd get used to it in a couple of weeks anyway so who cares?

    Yes I do think he should be able to dress the way he wants. It's not like he is going to school damn near naked or anything. I mean isn't school supposed to simulate the real world? Well, in the real world, people cross dress. They should suck it up and let him express himself and stop trying to force their beliefs on this young man. People are always too busy passing judgments on others that they forget what's really important in the world!
    THAT'S MY JAM!
