I see a big problem here for the school. Rules should be applied equally to all students. If girls are allowed to wear makeup, they can't have a different set of rules for the boys.
BS! What do you want a Nation of freaks walking across the stage to receive diplomas? No wonder the world is laughing at us. This liberal society of anything goes is a disgrace to this country. We need change badly, and Obama certainly isn't giving it to us.
Seems there was no problem with the school telling him to change his shirt. I don't see it as a problem to relax the rules on the last day of school though.
I'll bet there are no regulations concerning boys wearing make up to school. His parents will likely have an argument here. It doesn't seem as if they want anything more than an understanding of different values.
If there are guidelines for makeup then it applies equally to girls and boys that want to be girls.

Please explain how wearing makeup makes someone a freak and a disgrace to their country.
Some of your right wing heroes like Hannity and O'Reilly wear more makeup on an average day than your typical drag queen. Are they freaks too?

You certainly are in a flutter over some make-up. Make-up upsets you that much?

Got it. Only valedictorians who invoke the Lord's Prayer are allowed to break the rules.

100% agree with both of these comments. Weren't some people just applauding the kid who broke the rules by saying a Christian prayer at his graduation? But this boy breaks a different rule, and he's called a freak and disgrace because certain folks can't handle people who refuse to adhere to archaic, heteronormative gender roles. Selective outrage is a very polite way of describing their obvious bias.
In other words you have no rational basis for your position. At least be honest.
Even Saint Reagan wore a ton of makeup in his day. Did you hate him too?
It should be quite evident to you. Look around you and see what is going on in the world. This country is getting really weird. And people that want to permit the anything goes idea are the ones responsible.
Kids have always tried to push the envelope as already noted. From the Little Rascals skipping school to the Beaver wearing a monster sweatshirt to long hair, it's what kids have always done.
