An Indiana high school senior is suing her school after being told she is not allowed to wear a tuxedo to the senior prom. The Sun-Times reports the 17-year-old is an open lesbian and does not wear dresses as she feels dresses represent a sexual identity she rejects.
Lebanon High School's dress code does not contain gender-based requirements, but does provide for a special dress code for prom that requires female students to wear a formal dress.
Trixie is all for pushing the envelope on these issues. I hope the young woman is allowed to attend the prom in the manner in which she is most comfortable and that the school district doesn't waste time and money disputing it.
