School expels girl for kissing girls

A private school in America has expelled a teenage girl for kissing two other female students during sleep overs. Jessica Bradley was in the ninth grade (by my reakoning that makes her 15, but I could be wrong? American readers?) of Covenant Christian Academy before being booted out for "sexual immorality".

Bradley and her parents are now sueing the school for $1 million in damages.

Found via Pandagon who comments: "Every time I think the sex panic of the religious right couldn\x92t get more surreal, they manage to surprise me."

Well, quite. It seems like there's another story of this depressing type coming out of the States every week these days...
