What interests me in this story is that the Tranny was okay with the school district’s accommodations. But the Obama SJW Bureaucrat and the Lesbian Gay Bullying Totalitarian attorney who insisted, “No, it’s not enough. We demand nothing less than complete submission to the Social Justice State.”
The district said she was allowed to change inside the girls’ locker room, but only behind a curtain. The student, who has not been publicly identified, has said she would probably use that curtain to change. But she and the federal government have insisted that she be allowed to make that decision voluntarily, and not because of requirements by the district.
“What our client wants is not hard to understand: She wants to be accepted for who she is and to be treated with dignity and respect — like any other student,” said John Knight, the director of the L.G.B.T. and H.I.V. Project of the American Civil Liberties Union of Illinois, who is representing the student. “The district’s insistence on separating my client from other students is blatant discrimination. Rather than approaching this issue with sensitivity and dignity, the district has attempted to justify its conduct by challenging my client’s identity as a girl.”
Because “feelings” have become the go-to excuse for expanding State Power.
It would be worth a Zombie Apocalypse to end this Social Justice Stupidity.
Aren’t there rules to when you can get sex-change surgery? So chances are, this k-12th grader is a minor and hasn’t had surgery (which, if I understand the climate on Trans, a significant minority of trans get surgery)…
Risking exposing a virginal/sheltered girl to male genitalia is ok now? Just saying… I saw my first dick at 18. So yeah… its possible they exist in that locker room.
So once a girl goes to college the whole SJW rape culture kicks in and males had best not even take off a shirt or be seen in underwear or OMG “triggers” – “”micro aggression”.
However, prior to that or if we envoke the golden words trans then a biologic male and can let it all hang out and any girl that is traumatized (potentially due to rape/incest previous trauma) it is just a SHUT UP you bigot response if she complains.
So is the trans girl/boy a real girl if she/he has no sympathy or compassion for her/his fellow girls. What a total look at me aren’t I speical SJW a-hole instead of being a girl.
But they AREN’T any other student, are they?
Why does less than one half of one percent of the student population get treated with dignity and respect while another 49.5% are forced to deal with disrespect?
So, the sociopathic 2-3%ers within federal government want the majority normal heterosexual population to participate in the delusions of the gender-identity disordered? ROFLMAO…….not going to happen, except in the microcosm of progressives and libertarians.
Here’s my confusion.. SJW say that all males have the propensity for rape, so much so that I must “teach” my son NOT to rape. Biologically a transgender MTF is a male. Why do they get a pass for the rape culture? We don’t know the orientation of MTF, and if ALL males are potential rapists why aren’t those still in transition? Why are feminist issues and female issue important, but when it comes to transitioning from MTF they are more important? Why aren’t SJW screaming about a MTF (Bruce/Kaitlyn) who lived with male privilege for 5 decades taking an award for woman of the year. SJW and feminism has become the frickin joke of the century. These alliances on the left are starting to fray and fall apart, and me? I’m going to grab some popcorn.
The student was ok with it, but leftists had to use it as a club.

The insane are now making policy – and making it stick at gunpoint.
If they think that this will magically increase “tolerance”, I’d bet it won’t work that way. At some point, people will get a snoot-full and the backlash will be fast and furious.
We’re way beyond tolerance – this is the tyranny of the different. Decent people don’t have a problem with eccentric/”different” people as long as tolerance goes both ways.
I understand that there are biological women who think they’re men – fine. But I don’t want to share the restroom with them. If that makes me a bigot then so be it… that’s just the way it is and I’m not going to change. Ditto for women who don’t want to share a locker room with someone that still has HIS wedding tackle. Other arrangements are available. In this case, the curtain or a single-occupancy restroom.
We may be nearing peak-PC… I hope so.
So the only difference between tranny and tyranny is the ‘y’?
‘I do not make windows into men’s souls.’ Should be the defining rule of bathrooms and changing rooms. I don’t care how someone feels deep down inside, they can use the bathroom they have the junk for, especially if said bathroom involves displaying your junk to others.
Frankly, I think group showers are a travesty in high schools, anyway. It was one of the reasons why I did not like phys ed.
Sports teams you almost have to have them, and participation in them is purely voluntary.
Phys Ed is required, so the student is forced to subject their naked body to the views of others that they may not wish to have viewing it.
When you consider that the entire point of requiring phys ed in the early 60’s was to get our youth in better physical shape, it has been a clear and abject failure in achieving that.
Just junk it.
Our school doesn’t have group showers (they are individual stalls with a shower and dressing area).
However I think if you have a penis (even if you think you are a girl) you use the room for people with a penis. If you don’t and have a vagina then you use that room.
If a trans kid with a penis doesn’t want to use the room for people with a penis then some accomodation should be worked out but not one that imposes a person with a penis in a group of girls who are uncomfortable.
I don’t think being trans means you get to make other uncomfortable and frankly there is too much room for mischief.
Is the student suing the school? Or is he being manipulated the SJWs to sue the school?
@Ignatious won this thread!!
The trouble with ending SJW with a zombie apocalypse, I fear, is that their brains are insufficiently nourishing, and the zombies would leave them alone and attack the rest of us.
😀 I meant to write ‘…is the Why’ but for some reason my computer is in auto-correct hell.
you think the people in the Obama administration that favor this lawsuit might be women’s rights supporters?
I’ve gotta think that most transgendered people are saying to themselves,
Life is hard enough, I don’t need this boys-in-the-girls-room stuff.
