“ Absolute Embarrassment” Parents Are Beyond Mad After Ohio School Pupils Elect A Lesbian Couple As Prom King And Queen

Mindaugas Balčiauskas and
Liucija Adomaite
Annie Wise and Riley Loudermilk, a pair of high schoolers in Kings Mill, Ohio, have been dating for six months now. On April 17, they were voted the prom king and queen, which they believe is the first time an LGBTQ couple has received the crowns in this district. The excitement was through the roof when Wise recounted the moment how "My crown fell off and it broke. There was a lot going on, but it's something I'll never forget. It was amazing." And while many see the prom couple as a recognition of their popularity, for Annie and Riley, the honor was much more than that. "I do hope it kind of just helps people realize that it's OK to come out," the prom queen told the press. Meanwhile, some parents were enraged with the lesbian couple winning the title. It's honestly more than weird to see a bunch of adults bashing teenagers for something that brought the school community nothing but happiness.

Annie and Riley the 18-year-old lesbian couple from Kings High School were elected prom king and queen an honor they didn t expect

Unfortunately, not all comments on the school district's post were positive.

The couple has been dating for six months and they hope that their award  just helps people realize that it s OK to come out

Riley said that many of those nasty comments said that the couple "needs Jesus," others expressed that a prom king should be male. Image credits: riley.loudermilk Image credits: riley.loudermilk The rage escalated to a school board meeting last week where one parent stressed her anger about the elected couple being LGBTQ. "Sorry, but I believe that there are still two genders, a male and a female," WLWT5 news reports. According to Fox19, another parent at the meeting added: "I think tradition stands for a queen that has a vagina, a king that has a penis and testicles." Image credits: riley.loudermilk Image credits: riley.loudermilk The homophobic comments from adults both online and at the school board meeting didn't affect the decision as the school board defended Annie and Riley. Dawn Goulding, a community relations coordinator for the school district, commented on the matter: "This is solely a Kings High School senior class nominated and voted-on initiative."

But the week after prom an anonymous parent had a school meeting where she complained about the decision of electing the LGBTQ couple

Negative comments from haters started flooding in

Fortunately many people showed support for the LGBTQ king and queen

They are happy and no one gets hurt. Win-win. I mean, it's not like you're worse at making coffee because gay people exist? Or you suddenly suck at math because you saw two women kiss? Or you're not allowed to be straight and live your life the way you want, just because others live their lives differently? 145 145points reply Anna Banana Anna Banana Community Member • points posts comments upvotes 1 year ago Somehow, a lot of people seem to think exactly that.

The mentality that causes this is obvious in this line from the complaints: "That is the sickest thing I have heard". I mean all the mass shootings, murders, rape and wars take place in the same universe but seeing two girls hug is the sickest thing..

That doesn't arm anyone. That doesn't help anyone neither. (I'm not sure if this lady feels soooooo happy to have a male label. Best case scenario: she doesn't care....) It's just sad to see everyone praising that a women can be called "king" by fear to be judged by the politically-correctness that rules all relationship in US. Your fear of social judgment makes you lose all your common sense. Even basic semantic rules needs to be destroyed because someone may feel hurt...

THEY-DON'T-GIVE-a-S**** but the fact that you MUST subscribe to the fact that a women gets crowned a "KING" (otherwise you're promptly called homophobic by lazy superheroes like you) is the problem. what's wrong with keeping the KING a male? as it's what the word means ( king=man, queen=female) -34 -34points reply Dana 2.0 Dana 2.0 Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago What confuses me is that it's just such a tiny, unimportant issue to get upset over.

You must also object to a boy asking to wear a princess costume because, well, a princess in a glitter dress must be female. A sociologist would tell you that the idea of a leader pair being Queen and King is but a social construct. Sticking to it is conservatism without any value but for the sake of preserving what seems traditional. 15 15points reply Marianne Marianne Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago @Hui: So you're saying that instead of "King &Queen" they should have been named "Queen & Queen"?

How does that make you more fair or smart to accept that your boy wants to be called a Girafe because, he, "boy" is a social construct... I'm not homophobic. Again, I don't care about anyone's sexuality. You can't imagine how much I don't care. (I live in the Marais in Paris and half of my neighbors and friends are gay) But being forced into the label "homophobic" because I find it ridiculous to change the meaning of words for consensus-sake, that, is ridiculous. ... and so American -4 -4points reply Marianne Marianne Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Also are you telling me that I made a spelling/grammar error?

Whoever argues with "god" against non-heterosexual people should first and foremost consider their lack of fear in said god whom they ignore, as they decide which of the religion's values (traditional famility model vs. grace of charity) they weight how much instead. Whoever argues against love is to be condemned. 88 88points reply Terd Fergison Terd Fergison Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago The bible and Quran say that you're supposed to stone homosexuals to death. If they aren't willing to follow through on killing homosexuals, they should just shut up. The bible also says to kill divorced people. If they aren't decrying divorce as loudly as they decry homosexuality, they are hypocrites. Faith is irrelevant, stupid, and religions are testably untrue. People should dump these harmful, evil myths entirely. And you have to stop making excuses for these evil religions. 38 38points reply Load More Replies... La Petite Morte La Petite Morte Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Technically, there were no proscriptions AT ALL in the Bible against homosexuality originally. The original stoning verses stated that 'defilers of the faith and heretics' were to be stoned, and the other 2 scriptures were inserted by Pope Constantine I as a way to combat declining population numbers. At the time, most men believed that women were not capable of true, abiding, deep passion and love, so women were only for having kids and if you wanted a 'real' relationship you could only find out with another man. But I agree with your sentiment. 24 24points reply Noemie Houtekie-N'Da Noemie Houtekie-N'Da Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Actually, Jesus doesn't want you to stone anybody. 9 9points reply Terd Fergison Terd Fergison Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Did he tell you that personally? ;-) 4 4points reply Noemie Houtekie-N'Da Noemie Houtekie-N'Da Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago There is a story about it. 0 0points reply Terd Fergison Terd Fergison Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago A story from the same book with the talking donkey in it?

They don’t seem to cause problems 2 2points reply Terd Fergison Terd Fergison Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago (edited) Hinduism and buddhism cause less problems, but they still cause some problems. Almost all religions are misogynistic where women are viewed as less than men (this includes buddhism and hinduism). Hinduism says that the world rests on the back of giant turtle. That's just silly. To teach someone that as truth is harmful. You should look at the dhalia lama in Tibet. The buddhists had a very detrimental class/caste system, some people were treated as slaves. The dhalia lama used to rule with an iron fist and he even had people killed. Hinduism has that very harmful classist, racist caste system still happening. Hindus with darker skin are treated awfully (forced to clean toilets/outhouses, etc.). Go work with large groups of Indian people, you will see that hindus treat some other hindus very badly. Why do you need any religion and unverifiable claims? Just study science. 9 9points reply Hermione Hermione Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Good points. But isn't the caste system system only with Indian people? Those who practice the religion outside of India do not have the sexism and caste issues? 1 1point reply Terd Fergison Terd Fergison Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago If you are looking for the least harmful religion, maybe look into Jainism.

F off 0 0points reply Carmen Sandiego Carmen Sandiego Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago (edited) The caste system was abolished a long time ago. It was not in the original version of the vedas or puranas, it was added later on by people trying to exploit others. Besides, I'm pretty sure that many smart people, no matter the religion are trying to weed out the impractical and harmful practices and beliefs of their religion and sticking to the good part. We have advanced and must adjust our beliefs as such. What was good then might not be good now. It is written in the vedas that we must not believe blindly, but test the theories presented and find out for ouselves. 0 0points reply Noemie Houtekie-N'Da Noemie Houtekie-N'Da Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago This comment is hidden.

What happens after death? -7 -7points reply Terd Fergison Terd Fergison Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Noemie, I am not sure that people created all of science; a lot of aspects are more of a discovery. Did people create fire? No. Fire existed and people were able to harness and discover it. The Arabic numerals, did people create them? It is more of a discovery. We’ve always had 10 fingers, but it took someone to discover the principles of numbers and arithmetic. These things exist in the natural world. Nothing happens after death. That’s the natural order. Our particles get broken down and some feed the soil, plants, and worms. What happens to a chimpanzee after death in your view? Do they go to a chimp heaven? We had common ancestors with chimps, so at what point evolutionarily do chimps go to heaven? 6 6points reply Zaza Zaza Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago So typical. Just because someone has a certain religion (or lifestyle) doesn't mean they're a professor in the matter and have to precisely everything.

They are filled with thousands of contradictions, failed scientific claims, historical inaccuracies, sometimes forgeries, and errors. When these books say the earth is flat, that's wrong. When these books say they are inerrant, and we can see contradictions in them, they prove themselves wrong. When these books say the earth is center of our planetary system, we know they are wrong. When these books promote an evil morality, we know they are wrong. When these books condone slavery, and rape, and stoning gay people to death, we know they are wrong and evil. 3 3points reply Uber Mensch Uber Mensch Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago You'll likely never see an evangelical Buddhist. :-) 0 0points reply Terd Fergison Terd Fergison Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Paul, that is a fascist approach. I agree that religion usually causes more harm than good in these current times (it had more uses in ancient times). But, the answers is never fascism. Should we lock the religious in concentration camps like the Jews? No. People should have the freedom to choose what to believe. They should also be educated too. Education will likely be the only thing to hinder religion. Same thing with flat earthers. 1 1point reply k1ddkanuck k1ddkanuck Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago (edited) And not to shave your beard. And not to eat shellfish. And not to lust over another's spouse. Further, if one commits a single sin on that list, one supposedly commits them all. I am not religious at all, but I do love to read. It's (I imagine) a lesson not to judge other people, because we are essentially all sinners. And boy, has that gotten lost in translation when the average person these days thinks of "the Bible"... Most "christians" don't even know that their "bible" consists of the Jewish talmud and torrah as the Old Testament, as well as the Christian New Testament as codified by the Roman Empire between the years 393-397 AD, 400 years after the supposed death of Christ and 60 years after the death of Constantine the Great. The latter of which consolidated Christianity with Mithraism (ever wondered where angels with halos and "the blood of christ" came from? google it). This original Catholic Church later split into the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church, and finally the various protestant denominations (from Anglicans to frickin' Mormons). And before that reformation came the Qu'ran, within which the most quoted prophet is not even Muhammad, but Jesus. They all worship the same thing, and most "believers" don't even know it- let alone the fact that casting "furiously righteous judgement" or whatever on "people not like you" was never the point of these damn cults-cum-religions in the first place. Angry, ignorant people gonna ignorant, angrily. Regardless of what flag or relic they wave. And you can probably count on the fact that they don't even understand their own symbols that they wave so vigorously. No fundamentalist really needs or wants to. Because they have "faith" or whatever you want to call the urge that some people feel, to hurt and oppress other people based on differences from themselves. Personally, I just say no to that nonsense, and stick to reading. 2 2points reply Curry on... Curry on...

Where did you get that information? You should talk to the best university level biblical scholars on the subject. What you are bringing is unverified trash from the internet. It may make you feel a bit better about your evil holy book, but it's wrong. The bible also says to stone adulterers to death. Should we really kill every adulterer? That would be a gigantic portion of humanity including many peoples' parents. The bible says to stone people to death that do any work on the sabbath day (even just moving sticks). Should we kill firemen that work on the sabbath? This book is straight up evil.

The original stoning verses stated that 'defilers of the faith and heretics' were to be stoned, and the other 2 scriptures were inserted by Pope Constantine I as a way to combat declining population numbers. At the time, most men believed that women were not capable of true, abiding, deep passion and love, so women were only for having kids and if you wanted a 'real' relationship you could only find out with another man.

Almost all religions are misogynistic where women are viewed as less than men (this includes buddhism and hinduism). Hinduism says that the world rests on the back of giant turtle. That's just silly. To teach someone that as truth is harmful. You should look at the dhalia lama in Tibet. The buddhists had a very detrimental class/caste system, some people were treated as slaves. The dhalia lama used to rule with an iron fist and he even had people killed. Hinduism has that very harmful classist, racist caste system still happening. Hindus with darker skin are treated awfully (forced to clean toilets/outhouses, etc.). Go work with large groups of Indian people, you will see that hindus treat some other hindus very badly. Why do you need any religion and unverifiable claims? Just study science. 9 9points reply Hermione Hermione Community Member • points posts comments upvotes FollowUnfollow 1 year ago Good points.

It's (I imagine) a lesson not to judge other people, because we are essentially all sinners. And boy, has that gotten lost in translation when the average person these days thinks of "the Bible"... Most "christians" don't even know that their "bible" consists of the Jewish talmud and torrah as the Old Testament, as well as the Christian New Testament as codified by the Roman Empire between the years 393-397 AD, 400 years after the supposed death of Christ and 60 years after the death of Constantine the Great. The latter of which consolidated Christianity with Mithraism (ever wondered where angels with halos and "the blood of christ" came from? google it). This original Catholic Church later split into the Roman Catholic Church and the Eastern Orthodox Church, and finally the various protestant denominations (from Anglicans to frickin' Mormons). And before that reformation came the Qu'ran, within which the most quoted prophet is not even Muhammad, but Jesus. They all worship the same thing, and most "believers" don't even know it- let alone the fact that casting "furiously righteous judgement" or whatever on "people not like you" was never the point of these damn cults-cum-religions in the first place. Angry, ignorant people gonna ignorant, angrily. Regardless of what flag or relic they wave. And you can probably count on the fact that they don't even understand their own symbols that they wave so vigorously. No fundamentalist really needs or wants to. Because they have "faith" or whatever you want to call the urge that some people feel, to hurt and oppress other people based on differences from themselves. Personally, I just say no to that nonsense, and stick to reading. 2 2points reply Curry on... Curry on...
