How can this just be happening for the first time now?

Because, for the first time, the students voted to have it this way.

My (rhetorical) question was looking a bit deeper than that, I think.

= the rationale behind "Separate But Equal," which was a horrible justification for segregation not so long ago.

There's a school in Louisiana that still has a segregated Prom. I think technically it's open to both students but nobody goes to the other. But it's the black students that do not want to intergrate. They intergrated for one year and they stabbed the white prom queen. It's been seperate every since.

Because, for the first time, the students were allowed to decide on it instead of their parents.

Okay, every time I see the thread, I think it says "Integrated porn"... and I'm the one who made the thread in the first place!

Yes, I could make integrated porn, but then I'd lose some self-respect.

I'll just watch it instead.

I don't know if I am more impressed by player in the middle's headband, or the fact that homie on the right even incorporated the fabric into his sneaks.

Uhm...are the breasts of the first girl actually peeking out the bottom? Being a fat girl, I'm usually pretty forgiving but damn, that's nasty!
