Utah school tells girls they can't say no to boys at dance (claims, laws)

[MJJersey]

The title is misleading. The rule applies to all students. If a girl asks a boy to dace, he can't say no either.

What if a gay kid asks a straight kid?

Rule applies to all students, and this dance is voluntary. OUTRAGE!

Still a REALLY stupid rule. It gives the subtext that it is NOT OK to say no. As a parent, that is not what I teach my daughter.

I think this just invites more [P-word] grabbing for these girls (and boys) in their future.

the news clip in the OP doesn't report boys can't say no to a girl at the dance. the reporter and principal said girls can't say no to a boy.

where did you read boys couldn't say no to the girls, too?

it is crazy in the name of 'inclusiveness' to make girls abdicate the right to say no to someone. very bad lesson to teach kids.

Well obviously the state must compel a same gender dance partner to comply least they are sued for bias.

The principal did not say that. It's a gender-neutral policy. The feminists are turning this into something it's not.

Did anyone else notice this dance is being held during the school day?!? Not only are these idiots telling girls they must accept if asked to dance, they're cutting into time that should be spent on actual learning.

Update: The school board has released this statement:

"We are re-examining the procedures surrounding these dances. We have advised our schools to eliminate any sort of language in the instructions surrounding these dances that would suggest a student must dance with another student."
