I just heard that the headmaster of my youngest daughter’s school told her she cannot wear a rainbow mask because she is not allowed to advertise her sexual preferences. Oh my, my daughter is happily lesbian/straight and doesn’t care about the gender of her friends. Something I have always encouraged.

I am gearing up for a fight tomorrow, trying to figure out a calm way to meet with the person in charge of the school.

So, “wear a mask, but not one we don’t like”.

I’d start by wearing a rainbow mask of my own to the meeting… :smiley:

Geez, I like the way you think.

Does the school also allow them to wear skirts or dresses? Way more advertising of the fact that she is not a genderless, personality-less blob than a colourful mask could ever be.

I’d swap out the mask for one that has “I support LGBTQ+” written on. Not advertising her preferences, just her support of it. That’s not against the law, is it?

There is no law against any of this, it is just the school management prejudice. I am assuming a parent complained that their child heard my daughter supports LGBTQ+ publicly and this is where this is coming from.

Cape Town is always 1 stage lower than national. That means we’re on Stage 2 now.
