Nondiscrimination goes both ways, bee-yatch!

WCCO brings us this little story:


St. Cloud State Elects First Male Homecoming Queen
Oct 24, 2004 12:54 pm US/Central


Some people might say that the new homecoming queen at Saint Cloud State University is unqualified for the job.

That's because the new queen is a man.

Fue Khang, a student from Minneapolis, was crowned homecoming queen on Thursday night after a vote by students. School officials say a man has never been chosen queen in the 65 years the school has elected royalty.

University clubs and organizations nominate royalty candidates, and Kang was the nominee for the student senate. A school official says it is rare for student groups to nominate a man for the post.

Student government president Hal Kimball says the nomination was sincere. He says the student leaders wanted to make a point about not supporting gender stereotypes.

But the mother of one queen candidate wasn't too impressed. Kim Ferber says she was disappointed and is questioning whether she wants her daughter Annie to keep going to the school.


This broad's outrage might seem a little more genuine if she was equally appalled when sexual discrimination worked FOR her daughter as she is now that it works AGAINST her daughter. Equality is equality.

So, lady, unless you plan on campaigning to make your daughter and other women draftable, I don't want to hear it.
