its not running away from the problem it solves it in theory by putting eveyone who is in the same position in one school in a calm enviroment fear free from adverse reactions from other pupils about there sexuality

I think I have to disagree kronas, however I'm not saying there wouldn't be any benefit from the "safe" environment, just that it might not be the best way to learn to deal with the wider world?

- and I think it might turn out to be anything but "calm" :)

you dont have to agree im not saying they should go all through there school lives segregated it is about there HIGH school life i think when they old enough to handle the pressures they can go back to mainstream schooling/college

yeah that's a good point, like I said in my earlier post I felt like I didn't have an alternative, I can't say what I would have chosen if one had existed, though.

I've been trying to remember, bearing in mind I mentioned an all boys boarding school (50 blokes 11 - 18), but I don't recall anyone being gay. It was maybe more of a taboo back in 1964? - or maybe, that they would have been "teased about it a bit"?

I dunno, like kink said, more questions than answers.:shrug:
