NEWCASTLE, Ontario, December 4, 2012 (LifeSiteNews.com) A girl who identifies herself as a boy has been given permission to use the boys bathroom at her Ontario public high school.
Sixteen-year-old James Spencer decided to change schools after she began dressing and acting like a boy. Officials at Clarke High School in Durham Region were at first reluctant to let the biological girl into the boys room, asking James to use a private washroom that required a key from the main office.
But James started a school-wide petition that eventually swayed the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board to let her have her way.
We decided it would be most appropriate ... and thats the direction weve taken, said Martin Twiss, the boards superintendent of education to The Star.
The Schools dress code policy states that students are to dress neatly, in good taste, and in a manner which is appropriate for the school, workplace or an out-of-school activity.
Pro-family leaders warned earlier this year that McGuintys Equity and Inclusive Education (EIE) strategy would require school boards across the province to adopt policies that recognize special rights for self-identified homosexuals, transsexuals, and transgenders.
The EIE strategy, coupled with the passage of Bill 33 in June which add gender identity and gender expression as prohibited grounds for discrimination in the province, has set the table for activism, one critic told LifeSiteNews.
Radical gay activists inside and outside of the government pushed to create a legal apparatus for their agenda, said Jack Fonseca, project manager for Campaign Life Coalition to LifeSiteNews. They have now began to push their ideas on children, prodding them to demand these crazy things as a right with the backing of the newly created legal apparatus.
Backers of Ontarios Bill 33 boasted at the time that the bill would open the doors to social change.
But critics warned that the bill would result in social change that would threaten peoples safety by allowing men who dress and look like women to use public bathrooms, change rooms, and showers intended for women.
This will represent a serious invasion of privacy and security for young girls and women. Imagine how it will put young girls and women at risk of being peeped at or even assaulted by men who dress as women so that they can get closer to females.
Last month a Washington state college decided it would not prevent a 45-year-old man who presents himself as a transgender female from lounging naked in a womens locker room, in an area frequented by girls as young as six. Teenage girls on a high school swim team were using the facilities in September when they saw Colleen Francis exposing male genitalia through the glass window in a sauna.
Former transsexual Walt Heyer told LifeSiteNews earlier this year that people who identify themselves as transgender suffer from a diagnosable disorder and that laws should not be enacted that encourage people in their disorders.
It is so appalling to me, as a former trans person, that lawmakers today, who are motivated by sexual activists, are willing to legislate that society accept people who need psychiatric care, said Heyer.
Heyer suggested that a more helpful alternative for people struggling with their sexual identity would be for lawmakers to make available more accurate psychological treatment.
Fonseca agrees with Heyer: It is sickening to think of the harm caused directly to individuals who are encouraged to pretend they are the opposite sex. Schools are now cooperating in the psychological abuse of children.
Fonseca worries that this kind of social change does not bode well for the future.
If the state can make you profess against your conscience that a biological male is not really a man, what cant the state compel you to do?

That's just it. A normal, rational adult/parent understands the limitations of a child's worldview and translates accordingly. The nutcases choose to take comments like that literally because they are unwilling to apply the slightest amount of sense/logic.
It's one of the most heinous and destructive examples of people who elect to be "children by choice" in order to avoid the basic responsibilities and accountability required in the adult world of reality.
No wonder people will beg for Obamacare even though the reality is that Obamacare is a death march. The simpletons cling to their childish healthcare-for-all fantasy because intellect and wisdom is something they willingly exchanged for the promise of free carousel rides, popsicles and lollipops.
They embrace and celebrate their reality-challenged offspring because after all, the poor kids were purposely molded into the image of the parents.
For all the work Cher has had done on herself to look "beautiful", the rot of her character is made manifest in the abomination known as "Chaz". Poor thing.
IMHO, your post is right on the mark. Many small children identify as something they're not - one of mine believed he was a dinosaur for the longest time. We were worried because he bit his brother once. Other children identify as cats or dogs. Imagine playing along to the point where you tell everyone to treat the child like a cat or dog, thus reinforcing that behavior.
Thank you, you are exactly right
I guess the urinal is soon to become a relic of the past.
