Just when you think it wasn't possible

The IQ does drop another notch.

Bam indeedy. Here is the AP Wire from Texas:
Delana Davies, 33, said she complained after reading a school notice about "TWIRP Day." Davies, whose 9-year-old son and 4-year-old daughter attend Spurger Elementary, said she viewed the day not as a silly Homecoming Week activity, but rather something related to homosexuality. "It's like experimenting with drugs," Davies said. "You just keep playing with it and it becomes customary. ... If it's OK to dress like a girl today, then why is it not OK in the future?"
So I guess this lady (heh!) dresses her little daughter in skirts and dresses all the time lest those pants she wears turn her into a man hating dyke. 'Cause she is so worried 'bout her little boy dressing like a girl and catching the gay!

::sigh:: It is people like that who shouldn't have kids. And to answer her question, it is okay for the boy to dress like a girl in the future or vice versa: what is the big deal about cross dressing? It doesn't turn a kid gay. And even if it does, who cares? Ahh, yeah, Delana Davies cares. I'm so glad she isn't my girlfriend. Oy vey.

And isn't it reassuring to know that one loud obnoxious parent can force her will onto the school and take away the fun from not only her kids, which is her right, but also from other people's kids? If my kid were in that school district I would complain for the right for my kid to be able to cross dress that one day of the year. No other woman is going to tell me what is good and bad for my kids.
