Okay, I saw the You Tube video report. I'm really puzzled by this post. Where is the exploitation or disgrace? Students put together the yearbook and included gay and lesbian student couples. There are pictures of these couples holding hands and kissing on the cheek. They say things like, "she's the most wonderful thing to happen in my life." And the problem is what?
Nobody is naked. Nobody is soliciting with a 1-800 number. Nobody is advertising a "gay pill" or making any statements like, "try being gay, you'll like it."
I didn't anything in those pictures that wouldn't have been OK if the couple were a male and a female so this reaction is homophobic, people still wishing to brand gay people as innapropriate, going to hell or whatever else they have pulled out of their bum.
Its sad we can't understand that some people love differently.
I'm a little perplexed that there would be ANY signs of relationships- gay or straight- in a yearbook. That's certainly not something I'd want to look back on through the ages!

Exactly! How many of these people are actually going to be together 5 years down the road? (says the woman who married her highschool sweetheart, but I know that's not the norm! )
Congrats to the kids who put together that yearbook. Well done!
Shame on that homophobic fellow who talked about exploitation and whatnot. In my opinion, he's the one who's a disgrace, spewing his bigoted nonsense. Every time I see folks like him, it just reinforces for me how far we, as a society, still have to go.
