Tampa, Florida - The Christian-based organization, Florida Family Association, has started an email campaign protesting a course at USF called "Queer Theory."

A flier promoting the course explains that issues discussed include "the connection between gender and sexuality" and "Is transgender the same as transsexual?"

Allowing a political organisation, posing as religious to dictate suitable matters for study in a university is just oppressive ditatorship.
