    Yes I dont believe segregation is the key to stopping homophobia. Schools are the place, like the home, where homophobia can be tackled, but here its being used to create a division. And hwat does happen when they go out into the real world. Life is about integration and we have to strive to make it that way.

    Im interested, what do you think about the Gay Games. Personally I find it to be in a similar vein as this school. Discrimination hardly exists in the world of sport (Im not talking homophobia, but athletic ability is equal despite your sexual orientation). Why have a seperate sporting event? I dont think you can dismiss it as a 'bit of fun', its another case of voluntary segregataion that seems to be at odds with the push to end discrimination.
