School asks pupils: ‘How should we deal with gay students?’
By Josh Haggis
A student’s response to a school survey that asked how gay pupils “should be dealt with” has gone viral online.
The questionnaire – which was handed around to students in a Korean school after its principal heard rumours that two pupils were in a lesbian relationship – asked students “what they think about homosexuality” and “what they think should be done about homosexuals” in the school.

One student’s level-headed written response to “What action should we take against homosexual students” has since gone viral online, after it appeared on Reddit.
Read their answer in full below:
“None. Homosexuality is a student’s personal characteristic that a school cannot interfere with. This survey itself, created for the purpose of punishing such activities, is absurd. Just as how introverted people take longer than others to make social relationships, and how neat/clean people’s frequency of cleaning is higher than others, [homosexuality] is just a person’s special tendency.
Before trying to create a healthy living environment, the school should work on its own mental level, since it is the learning environment of students. The school installed high tech whiteboards and new grass for our athletic field to be progressive. And the essay writing contest pointed out the modern day problems in discrimination, and the prompt was based on sex inequality.
This survey, fit to be stuffed in the trash immediately, is a primitive concept, and is incredibly discriminatory. It can not be more paradoxical.”
