Surely just because you are a bi or gay girl that wouldnt stop you being homecoming queen? Im not saying I think what you are doing is wrong but I just wonder if what you are doing just embeds the typical gay stereotypes that gay males are like feminine queens and gay girls are butch and manly.

I concur. I don't mean to be rude in any way but seriously a guy running for queen and girl running for king...is just creating more of a stereotype. Seriously, you want to make a point? Then run for queen and have Cody run for king. That makes a point, a gay man winning King and a bi woman or lesbian winning Queen. Not a guy winning Queen or a girl winning King >_>

since you've only posted 3 times, i'll give you some advice. type properly. its nicer to read.

and, apart from that, i know i'd be more likely to get king than queen at my school, but i think your decision to swap was good.

with the homophobic idiots, show them you dont care. its the only way to get anywhere. don't yell, sarcasm is a better alternative. think up some decent comebacks beforehand.

tell the girl you dont care enough about her to wish she died too.

You most certainly should have the right to run for queen and your friend should most definately have the right to run for king, some people might show their objections but the best thing to do is just to rise above it and continue on with your own business, those people are just immature and dont understand, they are not worth your time.
