I've already added my own information, if that's okay with you Astri. At the rate this place is growing, I wouldn't want you to end up with a flooded PM box like poor Koko. sweatdrop

JoVo Protaeus I feel young, all the ages on the list of members are older than 1989..... crying I hate being 15 stare It's not so bad. Fifteen is a great age. It's a lot less dangerous to have emotional issues when you can't legally purchase alcohol or a gun. No me o.o; I'm younger than you....I'm 14 ^^' And was born in 1989 YAY!!!! Now I don't feel like I'm the only two year old here, so to speak ^-^

Damian Myrddin Well, there's those times when a bunch of jerks, usually the sames ones verbally abuse and tease us. Of course, when it comes to physical harm, the most they've done to us is throw full water bottles at us, nobody was hit but if they were one of us would seriously be injured, and they have shown they are able to hurt us. Yet the administration of the school is really denying that they're to blame and that we are for being different to instigate these sorts of conflicts. After talking to the counsellor about one of the Vice Principal's comments about "Why don't you guys try not to be different?" And how I was really confused when I went into religion class and there were posters all over the walls about all sorts of diversity. She assured me that it shouldn't have been said, however nothing seems to be done because the admins just want to ignore that there is a problem for the sake of the 'reputation of the school'. They don't want to acknowledge that there are homos and homophobes in their great school >_>" I suggest calling the local paper and telling them you've been harassed and the school won't do anything. They'll LOVE that quote about trying not to be different. It's not like you have anything to hide now that you're out to your folks.

That's Calgary for you, lawsuits just waiting to happen everywhere (see: Goliath bathhouse raid). If it continues, especially in the new school year, I suggest you try again to negotiate with the admin. If that fails, bring in some outside attention like Vague and Nadia have suggested. At my school there never was specific group to attack since the GLBs (no transexuals that I know of) were scattered everywhere and had friends in high places.
If anything happens, I'll lend a hand, Damian. I'm just a local phone call away!

What's on my mind...? Actually, my friend and I just watched Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen with Lindsay Lohan in it, and inside the case was an advertisement for Hilary Duff's new movie or something... Sacrilege! sweatdrop
I could care less about celebrities, but I think it would be hilarious to see Lindsay Lohan and Hilary Duff get into a brawl. xd heart
Yes... I am weird... domokun

Thanks for your support guys ^_~ and yeah, several of us were so pissed off that one called their mom and they were about to have reporters at the school (apparently) and another was writing a letter to the newpapers, then I don't quite remember what happened o_O' I think several of the Teacher Advisors were notified of this and hawked down at the admins about it, order was kept o_o''
A Lohan Vs Duff tourney would be extremely funny XD!!!!! However it would be scary at the same time O.O I betcha lotsa things will fly..

...And by fly, Damian, you mean the acrylic nails would get stuck in someone's flesh? I'd keep as far as physically possible from the two. Reality TV in the making: "Teenie Boppers Collide!" eek
That's insane, it almost sounds like a school in the middle of the Warsaw ghetto. I mean, "order was kept"?! That status quo doesn't sound very pleasant, and hurling waterbottles at people can be considered assault.
