PRETTY IN P!NK

I think that what happened in Nova Scotia was totally uncalled for. No one has the right to judge someone for what they wear at school! I mean if you think about it there is no such thing as a boy colour or a girl colour. Everyone should have a choice of what they feel like wearing and not feel stupid or bad about it. If you think about it, if guys are not supposed to wear pink then why do men's clothing stores sell pink shirts that were made for men to wear. It's made to be seen worn so guys shouldn't be afraid of getting beet up for wearing the colour!!

I feel that what the grade twelve students showed was: respect and kindness. These students showed respect because they didn't jump in with the other jerks making fun of this poor kid but they bothered to realize that this wasn't right to both the student himself or those who are homosexual . These students also showed kindness because they stood up for the grade 9 student by wearing pink to show that if you wear pink it doesn't automatically make you gay. Plus you don't usually see a grade 12 student or students standing up for a grade 9 student unless they are a close friend of yours or something like that.

So in conclusion i think that people (especially teens because they sometimes have no idea what the hell they are talking about) don't have the right to just judge someone for what they wear because whether they like it or not they are offending someone whether it be one person or a whole group of people. So my final comment is don't assume because most of the time it makes an a#@ out of you and me!
