Prom Queen

Los Angeles Times:

Garcia, 18, spent most of his years at Fairfax openly gay and wanted to be part of the Los Angeles school's prom court -- but not as prom king. He felt that vying for prom queen would better suit his personality, so he decided to seek that crown, running against a handful of female classmates.

Way to go Fairfax High!

If only gay teens could be so proud and self assured in all High Schools instead of just in West Hollywood.

ROTFLOL. Strange things happen everyday nowadays. Being a gay guy doesn't, well, literally mean you are a female or does it? Do all gay guys feel like women inside or what? LOL.

Awesome, good for him! Subverting gender roles at such an early age, his parents should be proud.

Nope. A gray tuxedo with a black bow tie.

"But don't worry," he said, "I'm still a queen at heart!"

So, in this case it's okay to call him a Queen. Right?

Good for him. Above all, being true to himself.

Why did the school let him run? This has nothing to do with being gay. HE is a male. Let him run for prom King. This is incredibly stupid.

Finally, a school willing to admit that homosexuals are just as capable of being title whores as the next 16 yr old girl!
