''It wasn't anything overdramatic, It's an expression of yourself, no matter what. To dress out of your own gender shouldn't be anything.... A lot of people responded to it well. I didn't think I was causing that much of a disruption.... I think a lot of people kind of figured it's OK for people to be different. They understood why I did what I did," he said of his peers' reaction.''
Justin Reynolds, a 16-year-old, 11th grade student who was sent home after having a discussion with his principal because he had come to his Florida school in female attire and had worn a stuffed bra. It appears that his transgender attire was deemed to be a class disruption because it did not adhere to the gender specific language in the dress code. Reynolds says he had tried two years ago to start a gay-straight alliance but was denied. (Ocala.com)
