Because he identifies more as a female. And I don't care....it doesn't mean anything to me.

And why would anyone take Homecoming Queen so seriously they would say 'take the crown from' -- like it was some kind of proud achievement.

It's a popularity contest that's all.

In some high schools the faculty pick who THEY want.

We’re living in Sodom & Gomorrah times!
Meh, myths and ancient fairy tales perpetuated by ignorant, uneducated, bronze aged, desert dwelling goat herders have no relevance today.

Who gives a flying fig that the school decided to do that? I'm just surprised it was in Missouri.

Columbia is a college town dominated by the left.

And yet those ancient people were vastly smarter than we are today.
I’d be listening to them rather than the blatant ignorance of our generation.

He's not a girl. And took something that was supposed to go to a girl.

if I identify as a CEO can I get my boss's job? Cool. I'll let him know.

It obviously does mean something to you otherwise you wouldn't be posting.

Women have worked to get equal footing -- which they now have.

This type of idiocy takes that equal footing away. Any male can identify as a female and get special treatment and inclusion to be selected for a female's job/honor/sport/whatever.

That's the issue. The fact that it was a homecoming contest is beside the point. It's a much, much bigger issue.

Really? They thought thunder and lightning was the wrath of a god. They thought the earth was flat. They thought the earth was not old. They didn't know that stars were suns. They thought the sun went around the earth. They endorsed keeping slaves. Their god ordered genocides. They blamed the victim for being raped. Women were considered property.

They did not accept all humans as being equal and having rights. It appears this school values all human beings, without prejudice.

And that is the only way to view human beings.

Mmkay.


This just leads to another group, the one called women, to be marginalized once again. Congrats.

Modern humans are imbeciles with a superiority complex.
If you think we have it more figured out than the ancients did or are more humane, I’ve got some oceanfront property on a mountaintop overlooking Mizzou to sell…

Stories like this make me wonder if someone out there is trolling the left with absurdities just to see how far they’ll go.
Apparently, pretty dang far.
