Gay Book Flap Erupts Again At Lexington School

What is considered decent or indecent is largely fashion. Early part of last century, "indecent" would include racial intermarriage, skirts above the knee, the word "swell", women in the workplace, etc.

A great deal has changed and much for the better. So as long as what is specifically considered "indecent" is not encoded into law, I'm in agreement here.

We shall not teach the children "indecent" things.

We shall decide on what is "indecent" by vote of representative school boards, elected in free and open elections.

I'm down with that. Done and done.
