<p>First of all, the gay community is not a group of cross-dressers. Many gay men do not exhibit anything (dress, mannerisms, etc) that suggests that they are gay to others. I don’t believe this policy marginalizes gay men at all. Besides, this is a school that prepares men for the corporate world. It is very hard for any male (gay or straight) to make it in the Fortune 500 crowd, if they take on dressing styles that do not conform to the norm.</p>
<p>The school probably (I dont’ know for sure -I’ll ask my neighbors) discourages/forbids visible body piercings other than perhaps an earring in each ear. </p>
<p>The comment about Tyler Perry does not work. Tyler Perry doesn’t work for a Fortune 500 company. He’s a comedian, actor, writer, etc. That’s a whole other ball of wax.</p>
