Seriously, people.This
article appeared in the first edition of SN Issue Two, but, the day
after SN Issue Two was copied and distributed, one teacher made Will
remove this article from any later editions. He said it was "not
suitable for the school."
Seriously, people.
First of
all, I do know that the issue I will talk about is quite fiery and that
many of the kids here are conservatives. But the thing I’m going to
talk about is a serious issue that needs to be talked about much more.
But what is this issue?
Main Entry: ho·mo·pho·bia
Function: noun
: irrational fear of, aversion to, or discrimination against homosexuality or homosexuals
Homophobia.
It’s gotten out of control. Calling someone “gay” even if they aren’t.
Making crude jokes about gay people. It’s endless. But it has to stop.
Homophobia destroys diversity (even though I don’t know any homosexuals
here), and really, why make fun of someone for their differences?
So seriously people, STOP . It’s not funny.
