I didn't particularly like his presentation and therefore skipped several minutes of the speech, but I can agree with the majority of what he said, especially the part about getting along even though we may completely disagree with each other.

Having said that, he's clearly a bisexual that just couldn't handle the rejection from the female he sought to be with, thus sealing his fate under the label of a homosexual. He then writes a letter to her satisfying his ego that basically says, "oh well, we were only gonna be together for a couple more months anyway...and besides, I'm gay."

To further satisfy his ego, he turns it into a personal issue and hangs his dirty laundry out to dry in the public eye for his own catharsis without so much as a hint of concern about how she may feel about it.

He clearly made his choice...

...and the principal was in the right.
