Jacob and Tino wish to run for prom king and queen at their high school. However, the school's current regulations do not allow two males to do so. This is a significant emotional burden for Jacob and Tino, as their rights to express themselves and celebrate their relationship are being restricted. In the 21st century, where gender roles are increasingly regarded as flexible and non-binary, it's backwards to have such stipulations in place. According to a 2017 report by the Human Rights Campaign, almost 60% of LGBTQ+ youth feel unsafe because of their sexual orientation. Enforcing outdated gender norms only compounds this problem, creating an unwelcoming environment for students like Jacob and Tino. A change in this policy would not only support Jacob and Tino, but also set a precedent for schools nationwide to create a more inclusive environment. A prom king and queen should represent the spirit of the school and its students, irrespective of their gender identities. Let's fight for the rights of Jacob, Tino, and all future students who might find themselves in the same situation. Sign this petition to urge the school to modify its prom court regulations and enable any pair to run for prom king and queen.
