[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know lots of boys who came out at STA in the last 10 years. None faced any discrimination or bullying. [/quote]

That is the biggest lie I have ever heard. There has been a TON of disctimination against students who have come out at STA. It is a very homophobic school. My son is a nonbinary biromantic asexual and he is TERRIFIED to come out to his peers. He has told me stories of how students react towards openly LGBT students. He has told me about the things that people say about the LGBTQ community. There is so much homophobia and silent discrimination towards students who have come out.[/quote]

It’s not a lie. I could list the names of the boys I personally know who have come out over past 10 years (but that would be wrong and against DCUM policy) You could ask all of them. It was NBD. Your son may just be an outlier. [/quote]

DP. The truth is somewhere in between. Many boys accept it and many do not. That is [b]the truth and anyone in the know would know that many boys and families at STA are conservative and traditional and they do not accept being gay[/b] and most certainly won’t accept them into their friend group. The all boys schools in this area lean very conservative. Coed is a better option.[/quote]

More stereotyping....

PP, you seem selectively blind to the fact that sexual orientation is determined by a complex interplay of peri-natal hormones and genetics- not political views acquired decades into one's life.

Translation: " conservative types" are JUST as likely to have a gay identifying child as liberals. Go ask Cher and Dick Cheyne.

And as for Gay shaming, many so called Liberals are just as likely to engage in it- ala Jen Pskai and her " lady G " public attack on a political opponent

Multiple posters have shared their experiences about STA being respectful towards Gay identifying people. Deal with it [/quote]
