Ok, so here is a story of something which happened back when I was in high school. I happened to spend a the last few years of my high school at a magnet school which was live in. Thus we had dorm rooms. But since (almost) all of us were minors, to avoid any sex crime related issues, males and females were kept in two separate dormitories.
Now, it just so happened that a female, during the school year, came out as being homosexual. I missed this event myself (was too focused on studies, and it was mostly kept hush hush), but learned of it years later from a friend. After she came out, she was assigned to a dorm room by herself.
Now, I do not know if she requested this change, if they asked her to make this change and she agreed, or if this change was forced. So my question is this, is it discrimination?
If she had been forced to move into a dorm room alone, would this constitute discrimination?
Had her roommate been bisexual/homosexual as well, they could have formed a sexual relationship, which considering their status as minors, could have made for very negative publicity for the school (parents in general would not want to send their children off to school that allows them to have sex), not to mention possible legal troubles (they were both minors).
Also, her roommate could have felt uncomfortable with the situation. I am pretty sure many female children would feel uncomfortable rooming with a male, especially one she had not attraction to but whom may or may not have had attraction to her.
Now, there is also a chance that both of them would have been okay rooming together (as I said, I don't know, I didn't here about this till much later). Yet, even if they both would have been okay with it, would the risk of the either of the previous two situations, especially the first, justified the administration requiring her to move to a separate room? The administration would not let a male and female room together, even if they both agreed to it and said nothing sexual would happen. The administration didn't even allow a male to be inside a females room with the door close (or a female inside a males room), and males/females were only allowed to visit each other room on Saturday nights, and there was constant monitoring by adults to make sure nothing sexual happened.
So given all this, would forcing her to move to her own room be discrimination?
