* gay melbourne grammar *

I’m Melbourne Grammar’s school pta and I’m gay. This rponse to the Atralian Law Reform Commissn’s review of discrimatn Church has reasoned that, the se of discrimatg agast stunts based on sexual preference, gay stunts “would not be able to give appropriate Christian learship a Christian school which requir mollg Christian livg”.

I wre this as someone who is gay, a fact about myself which I nnot change.

I’M MELBOURNE GRAMMAR’S SCHOOL PTA AND I’M GAY. THE PRBYTERIAN CHURCH WOULD HAVE ME SACKED

My peers know I am gay and they do not much re, jt as they do not much re that others are straight or of other sexuali. The sexualy of stunts is not somethg which should be the subject of so much scty – as Stephen Fry once poted out, the stricter branch of the Church often like to brand homosexual people as exhibg unnatural sexual attus, though is not the gay muny which displays an unhealthy obssn wh the regulatn, reprsn and rtrictn of sex, rather the shoe is on the other foot there. In an opn piece published  The Age, Danny Cash, who is gay, says the Church has reached an "erroneo ncln that sexualy has a bearg on learship" bee "mon sense dit certaly don't" play to hear Danny speak wh Virgia Trli on ABC Rad Melbourne's Morngs.

"Mr Evans prevly helped facilate the stunt-led Gay-Straight Alliance at Melbourne Grammar School and tght a trans stunt the at Wley, he is helpg to draft a genr affirmatn policy to formalise s support for trans stunts.

GAY AND SEXUALLY ACTIVE STUNTS N’T OFFER ‘CHRISTIAN LEARSHIP’, SAYS PRBYTERIAN CHURCH

Also you stand proud of beg gay then tell the hater’s to F—— off. r/LGBTQnews is for sharg lks to recent news, human tert, fair mentary and opn articl and Pri-related articl about lbian, gay, bisexual, transgenr, and all queer issu om a variety of sourc, lol, and perspectiv, along wh ments and discsns about the posts. “My peers know I am gay and they do not much re, jt as they do not much re that others are straight or of other sexuali.

“Why do you tell people that you’re gay? “For some, ’s been a way to shame me, a reflectn on the stigma our society puts on the word ‘gay’. "It was learng more about history of the gay muny and the atroci people had endured simply for beg different that eventually nvced Bartlett to do somethg about , to prove their actns were not va.
