It's sad. It sure would be nice to get the truth in the place where I'm supposed to get it! But of course, when anti-gay slurs are used by other students, all the teachers ever say is, "Okay, cut it out." When I don't tuck in my shirt, I'm threatened with a D-slip (discipline slip) or even a detention!

They aren't recruiters. A gay child or teen needs to be told that they are okay, just the way they are. It seems like that law forbids that, which is really sad.
