RAPE OF GAY HIGH SCHOOL STUNT WAS IGNORED, ACRDG TO LAWSU

Miracle Meadows’ former director San Gayle Clark, 69, pled guilty this year to three mismeanors unts of child neglect creatg a substantial risk of jury, failure to report by a mandated reporter, and obstctg a law enforcement officer. A lawsu by the mother of a Wt Virgia boy suggts that homophobia may be a factor failg to prevent the boy's rape, and later ignorg high school stunt, who is gay, was allegedly bullied, asslted and raped by a fellow stunt 2017.

16-year-old Olly Hudson wr for about his experienc of beg gay at a private all boys boardg school the UK. He spairs at the homophobic environment and the lack of acknowledgement by the school that homosexualy even exists. I’m also gay.

I cid to wre this, maly bee I feel ’s time for someone of my background, to speak up for a whole swathe of the young gay populatn, who right now, are effectively ignored and left to fend for themselv by the mastream media, and the environment which they grow up. Generally, they’re seen as hiv of latent homosexualy, plac where boys, trated only the pany of other boys, evably turn to one another to experiment sexually, gay or not.

COMMENT: THE TTH ABOUT BEG A GAY 16-YEAR-OLD AT AN ALL BOYS BOARDG SCHOOL

So nsc are most of the boys my school of the abundance of mal (and rary of femal), not to mentn the homosexual stereotype, that they go over and above to assert their masculy, an apparently qutsential aspect of which is to see whose ‘banter’ n scend to the ept pths of homophobic, ane, misogynistic abe. That is of urse, fettg the gay guys.

There aren’t many of , though naturally, there are more than you might thk, though we are forced to s there silence, and endure an endls torrent of homophobic abe, most of which is variably ignored by male teachers. As I said, I thk most of this out of an secure, alpha-male sire to monstrate nclively to the other ap, that ‘I’m not gay’, but there are more, pernic, and ntually dangero factors at play.

I feel angry, that all my time at this particular school, I’ve had not one PSHE (personal, social and health tn) lson on the subject of homosexualy. Not one assembly on homophobia and s nsequenc. Not even the slightt acknowledgement – unls prompted – om many members of staff, that homosexualy even exists.

TAG ARCHIV: GAY BOARDG SCHOOL

I felt liberated a recent philosophy class, led by an outsi teacher, to be able to start a discsn on the nature of sexualy, and to really try and get my peers to acknowledge that beg gay exists, and that ’s not somethg to supprs or live willful bldns of. I thk that was probably the first time I ed the word ‘homosexualy’ a classroom. Although credibly damagg to untls gay teenagers gog through the school, this nspiracy of silence is also credibly dangero.

How n we expect to do anythg about the worryg rise HIV diagnosis rat among young gay men, when om my experience, there exists not ltle, but zero homosexual sex tn? That’s why homophobic arguments om the bigoted right agast same-sex marriage, fear that might prompt the teachg of homosexual sex schools, are actually life-threateng. I don’t pretend that thgs are all rosy for gay guys state schools, bee they most fely aren’t.

But there n be no doubt that more is done, at least to make teenagers aware of the nature of homosexualy the state system, than is done the private sector, where feels often, like the school has some kd of ‘don’t ask don’t tell’ policy place.

I jt wish that the taboo of talkg about all thgs gay uld be broken, and that has to emanate om the example set by thory. If senr teachers private schools like me, are makg no effort to unter the disgraceful ti of homophobia that is jt so vilent across the pennt system, then we simply won’t see a shift attus this, affluent, and of urse, fluential sector of the populatn. Unfortunately, the statistics tell , that generally speakg, ’s gog to be the guys who are the lears of tomorrow, both the world of bs, and spher of polil fluence, and as a gay man, that sr me, really do.

But I realised quickly afterwards that beg gay was unlikely to be weled. Homosexualy Queensland had only jt been crimalised – and even then, the Parliament had imposed an unequal age of nsent for anal terurse (to ‘protect’ boys om beg reced to the homosexual liftyle), somethg that would not be repealed until 2016.

Based on the Lutheran fah, enforced both relig doctratn, and homophobia, wh steely German efficiency. The school l, which were prted the stunt diary, were based on supposedly ‘christian’ prcipl, and clud the statement that homosexualy would not be tolerated bee was not acrdance wh god’s will.

While the jok ma by my classmat, often wh earshot of unrponsive staff, were equently homophobic. The only snippets I learnt about what meant to be gay me om pop-culture.
