16. "Sexuality" is obviously a touchy subject for school elections.
Regardless of whether you assume he's heterosexual or not, he's running on a platform of sexuality, which is going to set off alarms all over the place. Kind of like saying "Vote for me, I'm still a virgin". Yeah, thats great and all, but is it appropriate for a campaign poster at school? Probably not. I don't think this is a "singling out" of the homosexual boy, so while it might be a form of censorship, I don't think its prejudiced.
