Suburban Kids Who Support Sex Change Friend Make Us Proud

Posted by Brian Fairbanks

 

Who'd a thunk Fox Frickin' News would have the story to make us feel all warm and fuzzy today? By warm and fuzzy, we don't mean the way we felt imagining Lady Richardson entirely buck naked earlier.

We're talking about a whopping dozen students in Brewster, NY, who have taken to cross-dressing at their high school. Not because they want to... they're showing solidarity for their friend... 

Boys wore skirts and wigs and girls wore caps and cargo pants to Brewster High School in Putnam County.

One senior says the students wanted 17-year-old Michael Loscalzo to feel more comfortable. Loscalzo has been dressing as a girl and says he plans to get a sex-change operation. He says he's been teased and even punched once because of his appearance.

Is the country finally turning a corner? Straight teenagers standing side-by-side to support one boy's decision to become a girl? Even we wouldn't have had those kinda guts as a seventeen-year-old junior Maoist-in-training, with our love of penguins, kittens, and disgust for Dan Quayle, whom we referred to as "the poster by for Spell Check." More surprisingly, the school appears to be siding with them:

The school says Loscalzo is free to dress as a girl as long as he follows the dress code.

God bless the US Constitution.

it might bring down the irony quotient if you corrected the typo in the spell check bit.

Um, that's the joke.  "Boy" is intentionally misspelled as "by."
