RACINE, Wis. -- Washington Park High School administration has told an openly gay student that he can not go after the title of prom queen after classmates nominated him.
"If a guy can win Miss Legs and a girl can win Miss Physique, how is that different than me being nominated for prom queen?" said Uriel Gomez .
After Gomez's classmates chose him to be on the ballot for prom queen, he was told he could not go after the title. Gomez said he never planned for this and was prepared to give up once he was "shot down" by school administration. However, Gomez was encouraged by his peers who don’t believe the school's actions are fair.
