Students at a Manhattan private school have revealed how they were forced to attend a drag queen performance earlier this year. The event was sponsored by the school, the reverend as well as students and the faculty advisors for Spectrum, the school's LGBTQ club.
Havea then spoke with the students about drag and his pansexual identity, as students said they were forced to dance in the pews.
'There was tons of social pressure to dance along and pretend like it was normal for sure,' one unnamed student told The Post Millennial, 'whether it be people tapping on shoulders and telling them to stand up or just a collective staring contest at whoever wasn't totally participating.'
Another student said: 'Immediately upon entering, there was a person handing out stickers with Pride flags on them unironically saying "take one or you're homophobic."'

I probably said this 5 years ago, but it's not enough to accept alternative lifestyles, now you have to endorse them.

I don’t agree with pressuring anybody for anything. However, it is a private school, so they can have whatever event they want. The parents have a choice to have their children attend there or not. I wonder if enrollment will drop after this?

Yes, it is a private school - we agree there.
But I grew up with a disabled mom in the 50s.
I can tell you from experience -- equality has to be forced.
If anyone thinks people in general were accommodating to the disabled prior to the Disabled Act -- they would be wrong.

Forced participation in the Pledge of Alligence.
It's ok when THEY do it, but when the gays do it, it's bad.
