(I thought this was notable for the conservative state in which it happened.)
An 18-year-old non-binary high school student in the conservative town of Jeffersonville, Indiana was recently crowned prom king of Jeffersonville High School while wearing a sequin gown and heels at the dance event — and the video of the student’s coronation is going viral.
The student, Cristian Hernandez, wore their dress and stood alongside four other competitors in suits while waiting to hear who won the crown. Once announced as the winner, Hernandez spun and strutted down the red carpet, striking poses in their crown and sash as fellow students applauded and cheered.
