t-t-tiickled PINK

Travis Price and David Shepherd showed respect, empathy and kindness when they saw bullies harass a grade nine on his first day for wearing a pink polo at Central Kings Rural high school.

David and Travis came up with a plan too buy a whole bunch of pink shirts and emailed his friends to wear a pink shirt the next day at school, and they were flabbergasted at how many people came to school wearing pink.

The boys showed their whole school that being a boy and wearing pink doesn't mean your gay, it means your wearing a shirt. It doesn't matter if you are a boy or girl, you should be able to wear a shirt of any colour and not be insulted for wearing it. The area of equity adressed here would be gender.
