I'm 34. Section 28 was in place from before I joined school, to the start of my last year of 6th form, age 17. "Promotion" meant anything not actively anti-gay. When I was bullied, a teacher took me aside and told me it was my fault for being gay and I should know better.https://twitter.com/TJ_Knight/status/1396712460774739968 …

But knowing gay friends who are teachers and still have to be in the closet so they didn't get fired because of conservative homophobic parents...I mean, that was the case a few years ago, idk about now.

The class was generally about "the news" so it was whatever was in the newspapers at the time and unfortunately for us, this was gay marriage. It was a badly structured class at the best of times.

That sounds shit. The entire concept of making kids debate issues like that as well...ugh.
