Yesterday's post about the anti-harassment policy got me thinking. It turns out, that most of the favorite schoolyard insults are not based on a legally protected status. So it's going to be business as usual for the Nelson Muntz's of the world. You are still allowed to tease people because of their height or weight, appearance, clothing, father's profession or lack thereof, intelligence, lack of intelligence, abilities in math/science/computers, membership in marching band, smell, size and shape of cranial protuberances, or [lack of] athletic ability. And for the older kids, there's always level of sexual development and amount of sexual experience.

It's really refreshing that kids are able to see beyond the contentious racial and gender issues in our society, and can focus on teasing about what's really important... the way people look.
