Dallas Texas Conservatives Push 4 Year Old Out Of School
PRIVATE SCHOOLS
AND ORGANIZATIONS
CAN DISCRIMINATE.
Another slap to the LGBT community coming from Dallas Conservatives. (Surprise). A Dallas-area school won’t take daughter of lesbian couple.
Less than one week before young Olivia’s first day – and days after her teacher called to welcome her – the Harrisons learned that their lifestyle as a married lesbian couple made them a bad fit for St. Vincent’s. Olivia was no longer welcome.
“I politely told them that we are in the 21st century. We’ve come a long way in 20 years, and I can’t believe that they would deny a child access to a good school because of my relationship,” Jill Harrison said.
“A big part of that reason is that we would be teaching values and morals contrary to what the child would be learning at home, and this would both undercut her mother’s authority and create confusion for the child,” the schools dean said.
After Olivia was dismissed from St. Vincent’s, Jill Harrison snagged the last opening at a nearby fine arts preschool. This time she made a point to ask whether her relationship would play a role in her daughter’s ability to get an education.
“I flat out asked them, and they said they absolutely don’t care about parents’ sexual orientation or what religious values are taught at home,” she said.
Harrison said she and her wife knew their children would feel the wrath of other people’s perceptions of their relationship at some point.
“I always thought it would be by the other children’s parents not wanting Olivia to hang out with them outside of school or having some prejudice toward them, but never from the school itself,” she said.
Lesbian Moms Do It Better – Raising Kids
DAH!
Of course, gays do most everything better! Is it a big surprise this week a study shows that being raised by two mothers does not hinder healthy psychological development? A study was conducted as the first generation of children conceived by lesbians by insemination turn 18.
In fact, lesbian mothers rated their 17-year-olds higher in social and academic skills, and lower in rule-breaking and aggression, than mothers of teenagers who also had a father.
The U.S. study appears in the journal Pediatrics.
“There are so many places in the United States where same-sex couples are not allowed to adopt or foster children in need,” said Nanette Gartrell of the University of California, San Francisco, who started the study in 1986.
“But there is not a single study that has shown there are any problems in terms of psychological adjustment of the child.”
Dixie Chicks aka Court Yard Hounds Release Gay Themed Song
The two sisters who make
up 2/3 of the Dixie Chicks,
Martie Maguire and Emily Robison,
are releasing a new CD under
the name the Court Yard Hounds.
The self-titled debut album will come out in May. You can hear 4 tracks from their upcoming album at Court Yard Hounds.
Check this out – AIN’T NO SON is about a gay teenage boy who is rejected by his angry, unaccepting father.
Emily says, “I turned the TV on, and it was A&E or one of those documentary kind of shows about these poor teenage kids who are devastated that their parents won’t let ’em stay in the house because they found out they were gay,” she explains. The lines, ‘You ain’t no son to me/Eight pound baby boy I bounced on my knee’ were around from the very beginning. That idea, how can you have kids and love them so much and one day decide not to — it just boggled my mind.”

Lesbian Prom Drama in Mississippi
So many haters this week in the news!
JACKSON, Miss. — A lesbian student who wanted to take her girlfriend to her senior prom is asking a federal judge to force her Mississippi school district to reinstate the dance it canceled.
The American Civil Liberties Union of Mississippi on Thursday filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Oxford on behalf of 18-year-old Constance McMillen, who said she faced some unhappy classmates after the Itawamba County School District said it wouldn’t host the April 2 prom.
“Somebody said, ‘Thanks for ruining my senior year,'” McMillen said of her reluctant return Thursday to Itawamba Agricultural High School in Fulton.
The lawsuit seeks a court order for the school to hold the prom. It also asks that McMillen be allowed to escort her girlfriend, who is a fellow student, and wear a tuxedo, which the school said also violated policy.
ELLEN HAS GIVEN THIS GIRL A $30,000 SCHOLARSHIP!
“I admire you so much,” DeGeneres told the shy student on her show. “When I was your age I never would have had the strength to do what you are doing.
“By just being yourself and doing what’s right, you’re going to make a lot of change.”
Do Lipstick Lesbians Vajazzle Their Precious Lady Peekachoos
Are woman really doing this?
I have seen some gay men adorn their bodies with Swarovski Crystals for years, but below the beltline?
Thanks to Jennifer Love Heweitt and her new book, plus her appearance on the George Lopez show, she has brought Vajazzling to the public masses.
The Day I Shot Cupid: Hello, My Name Is Jennifer
Love Hewitt and I’m a Love-aholic
She loves to vajazzle so much, that she wrote an entire chapter on it! Vajazzling is a form of Brazilian bikini wax where stick-on Swarovski crystals are applied to the skin after hair removal.
Jennifer described the appearance of the bikini trend by stating that “it shined like a disco-ball” and went on to recommend that all girls should try vajazzling their “precious lady”. The strange beauty fad also made an appearance on the TV show, The Doctors, where Dr. Lisa Masterson described vajazzling as a fun and safe alternative to piercing.
YOU DON’T NEED A BEDAZZLER MACHINE.
You can purchase a stick-on crystal body “tattoo” in your favorite design and color. Crystal tattoos come in designs such as hearts, stars and butterflies.
You can usually find these in the makeup section of most stores, but to get real Swarovski crystal tattoos, you’ll need to order online. Swarovski retired their line of body crystals recently, so they are very hard to find. Try EBAY!
A spa in New York city actually started this fad. And now many spa’s are offering to do the application for you after a fresh waxing.
What will they think of next?
Any lesbians tried this yet??
Your vagina could shine like the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree!
