"Gay teacher says Catholic school fired her for getting pregnant"

http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2014/09/08/gay-teacher-says-catholic-school-fired-her-for-getting-pregnant/


"For nine years, Barbara Webb, 33, taught honors chemistry and coached sports at Marian High School, a private Roman Catholic girls’ school in Bloomfield Hills, a Detroit suburb.


When she told her employer she was pregnant, she says she was given two options: resign or be fired.


Why? Because she got pregnant “outside the Catholic way,” as she put it in a Facebook post in late August announcing her pregnancy with Kristen Lasecki, her partner of more than five years. In same post, she announced the news of her dismissal."
