12 year old boy turns up to school wearing a skirt

..in protest at rules which disallowed boys to wear shorts in hot weather.

This made me chuckle when I read it, so i thought I'd share.

I'd like to see him try that in a comprehensive school in a run down council estate somewhere in the north of england. I don't think he would gain as much support from his fellow pupils.

did the same thing in high school.. one the only times I participated in something..

 

He's Certainly A Well Spoken, Confident 12 Year Old....



Cheers Glen.

 

if he had done this at my comprehensive, he would have been decked.

 

Quick Edit There I See, Thought The Original Was Better...

yeah, these days i attempt to not insult people. i figured I'd remove the language

can't blame a boy for trying :mickey:

 

Why is this article under Gay/Transgender?

 

I just thought gay/transgender people might appreciate it...

Where else should I have put it?

 

Exactly. Its not as if the pupil in question was wearing the skirt because they self identified as the opposite sex. A boy wearing girl's clothes in and of itself has nothing to do with being gay, or transgender.

And yes, a boy doing that in most schools would recieve a very rough time from fellow puils. Not that that is in any way a good thing...

 

It has nothing to do with gay or transgendered people... it is a protest. Sexual orientation has nothing to do with any of it.

It should either be under news, or under protests.

 

Alright guys, put your handbags away. I think everyone knows it has nothing to do with sexuality, but it's definitely related to transgender, whether the boy was doing it for kicks or otherwise.

I'll refrain from posting in this section in future if it's just going to cause a drama.

 

How is it? Most transvestites are actually straight men who have no gender issues whatsoever. Dressing in drag on it's own has nothing to do with transgender, and even less to do with being transsexual.

 

Talk about pedantic..

Boy dresses like a schoolgirl.. oh no nothing transgender about that.

Jesus fucking christ if it's such an issue someone just move it to the news section!

 

haven't you heard the stereotype

"transgenders do not read newspapers????"

 

THIS.!!..:iagree:



Cheers Glen.

 

"he's wearing a skirt, he must be a puff!" lol ya shoulda put it in the Protest section, ya numpty :mickey:

i went to school in the north, in the middle of a council estate..... it was so shite they knocked the council estate down in the nineties.

he'd have been beaten to shit and prolly shagged senseless if the hairyier of the neanderthals had gotten their hand on him... but he still wouldn't have been the weirdest fooker we had at the school, not by a long chalk

still, good on him for reminding the nazi fuckwits that run posh schools that uniform cannot be enforced by law.. schools can only give dress codes as a recommendation... teenage rebellion needs a figurehead, might as well be a posh kid in a skirt

 

Then why the hell is transexual and transgender even in the gay section at all then!!!!

 

i think this forum should be about transgendered people, but equally provide any information that may be perceived as transgender related.

i mean, if this was put into a protest forum or something, next to anti-america conspiracy threads - people might ask the same question

this is a serious forum! why the hell is there a thread about a kid cross dressing?

the topic, i suppose, is cross dimensional.

 

i've never understood that either
