The ACLU has filed legal papers on behalf of Kevin Keller, Riverdale High’s first openly gay student regarding the cruel plan to hold a Sadie Hawkins dance this autumn.
Although Kevin is not officially a student of Riverdale until September 2010, he was inspired by the ordeal of Constance McMillen to take pre-emptive precautions. McMillen sued Itawamba Agricultural High School to take her girlfriend to her prom and wear a tuxedo. Mcmillen won the suit but was duped into going to a decoy prom with several special needs children.
“I’m not saying they need to cancel the dance but I would like them to change the rules of the dance,” says Keller.
Instead of the girls asking the boys to the dance, Keller would prefer it if “People that are in touch with their femininity” do the asking.
Keller, who identifies as a “Sensitive Top” has not had any offers to go to the Dance but is holding out for Kurt Hummel from Glee, Robin of Batman fame, or Snagglepuss.
Principal Waldo Weatherbee has refused to comment pending further information on the case.
