I have yet to see a topic on this forum where we could all agree.
Unless I missed it, no one had any sympathy for the poor school administrators. As far as I know, they don't get paid extra for trying to provide a social function for the school.
My opinion? Attendance at a dance is voluntary. The administrators should therefore be able to establish rules that ensure a peaceful event, instead of allowing some attention-seeker (who is probably unable to draw attention to herself by virtue of actually ACCOMPLISHING something) to ruin it for many of the attendees.
It would sure be a lot easier on the administrators if they simply canceled future social events to keep their students from pulling this kind of shit.
And just to hear the liberals howl, I'll say that the administrators should ALSO be able to ban any asshole who decides he has to go in drag.
