I've heard a lot of that stuff in health class. I've watched videos where people have been bullied because of their sexuality and the teachers and principals have told them to act "less gay" and never even punished the bullies. Some of these cases have even been brought to court. It's ridiculous. You shouldn't have to mask who you are just to prevent being bullied. Teachers and administration should actually uphold their zero-tolerance bullying policy and defend the rights of the bullied. I don't know about your schools, but in my student handbook it says that you won't be discriminated against based on sexuality, race, gender, etc, and what the teachers are doing is discriminating.
