Oliver Baez spent two months rehearsing a scene for a school play in which his character confronts another student about bullying a gay student who takes his own life.
After much preparation, the 12-year-old’s small scene turned into a big problem among school officials in Wheatland, Wyoming. At the last minute they canceled the anti-bullying play, saying it did not conform to school values and leaving the young cast without a stage.
“It was awful,” Baez said. “For the school to cancel it, it’s like saying that ‘LGBTQ should not be included in a society.’ Which is really awful and cruel.”
Twenty-five years after a watershed moment for the gay rights movement — the murder of Matthew Shepard, a 21-year-old student in a university town not far from Wheatland — the canceled performances of “The Bullying Collection” show how far the LGBTQ+ community still has to go to gain acceptance in Wyoming and elsewhere.
…
A local theater group, the Platte County Players, has permission to perform there and salvaged the rights to the play and sponsored the performance a month later at the high school, as originally planned.
Exactly. I for one encourage fathers to leave their wives the second they are challenged or bored of it. For the good of society. Kids gotta grow up some day and learn they don’t necessarily need a father or discipline and financial stability. I mean, if they aren’t always happy how can society ever get there? Proud of young minds like yours that see through the BS and understand that indeed, it’s all about your happiness.
If you take boredom or challenge as making your relationship miserable I guess. I don’t think your wife would want to be chained to someone that’s so irresponsible or delusional as to play strawman like this, so you’d probably be doing her a favor… assuming you have a wife (I doubt you do nor ever will but I have to suspend my disbelief sometimes).
Yikes, you seem cruel. Have a good day man
Not cruel, just stating the obvious. Like if you’re that unstable, causing any amount of change to make you extremely unhappy with your relationship, you probably shouldn’t be in the relationship to begin with. You shouldn’t have kids in the first place even, like if you’re that quick to commit to something you know next to nothing about, that is an issue entirely caused by your selfishness and/or impulsiveness.
The only obligation you have is to your kids, because you made the decision to bring them into this world and you’re responsible for cursing them with existence, you have no obligation to your relationship or your parents or anyone else for that matter.
Thanks for avoiding beating strawmen to death. It’s like you’re here with me, my wife, and our kids, trying to make it work ♥️
Yeah, all of your comments are strawmen, I’m aware. I’m extracting the actual argument you’re trying to make out of the strawmen, because clearly you do think everyone has an obligation to force themselves into a shitty relationship that makes them and their partner unhappy just because their parents or God said so, the position probably being projection from your life experience since you seem to like to bring up your parents.
My point is that that is the stance a religious nutjob takes, not a normal functioning human being, and saying “haha here’s a witty sarcastic comment about my dad cheating on my mom” doesn’t have any bearing on gay people’s relationships. You can get mad at other people’s happiness all you want, but at the end of the day you’re just crying over other people not conforming to your beliefs and getting mad that they won’t make themselves miserable for your sky daddy.
Leave your wife and kids when you feel like it for the happiness boost, got it. If you were a relationship counselor in my area I’d sign my wife up- you’re good.
Lol your entire point was that “gay relationship bad because some people want to cheat on their wife”. This has nothing to do with leaving kids, yet you’re trying to insert kids into the equation to make people feel bad about the concept of relationships based on consent. Stop being delusional. You can’t “leave your kids”.
Tell that to my gay dad
