Parent Slams ‘disgusting’ Yearbook Photo
Parents and Christian groups in Clovis say a picture of a gay couple included in a high school yearbook is inappropriate and offensive.
The picture causing the big stir shows a lesbian couple along with nine straight couples in a feature that is titled, “Do you want to go out?”
Students and faculty with the yearbook say they just wanted to show diversity and that gay couples have the same right to be in the yearbook as anyone else.
Former lieutenant governor and parent Walter Bradly says the pictures show a violation of a school policy banning public affection. Further, he says teenagers shouldn’t be exposed to the picture in controversy.
“That’s not appropriate for a year book, an annual for 15 and 16 year old children. I just can’t buy this. This is disgusting,” he said.
The yearbook’s supervisor said the picture does not violate any privacy rules or district policies.
