Transgender first-grader wins the right to use girls' restroom

(CNN) -- A transgender first-grader who was born a boy but identifies as a girl has won the right to use the girls' restroom at her Colorado school.

The Colorado Rights Division ruled in favor of Coy Mathis in her fight against the Fountain-Fort Carson School District.

Coy's parents had taken her case to the commission after the district said she could no longer use the girls' bathroom at Eagleside Elementary. In issuing its decision, the state's rights division said keeping the ban in place "creates an environment that is objectively and subjectively hostile, intimidating or offensive."

The Transgender Legal Defense & Education Fund praised the ruling that was filled under Colorado's Anti-Discrimination Act. Michael Silverman, the group's executive director, called the ruling "a high-water mark for transgender rights."

This is the first of it's kind ruling in the country regarding the rights of transgender students. No court, no tribunal has ever said what the Colorado Division of Civil Rights has said today which is that trangendered students must be treated equally. They specifically referenced the outmoded concept of separate but equal and told us that separate but equal is very rarely equal and it is certainly not equal in Coy's case.

Why do so many grown men have bad aim?

I have experience dealing with a mother with Munchausen Syndrom by Proxy. You deal with it by moving, changing your phone numbers, and saying as little as possible to them when you pick up your son or daughter when its your weekend to see them. With that syndrome its all about drawing attention to themselves while pretending to be a good mother when, in fact, they are causing those very injuries or overdosing your children with too much medicine so they can “fix” them. Its very difficult to deal with because the AG is almost always on the side of the mother and automatically assumes the father is the guilty part if something goes wrong. If you walk into every Child Support Division of the AG its very obvious why. Almost all are women and many of them with chips on their shoulder from their own failed relationships. In fact i bet its a prerequisite to work there.

Look at that ‘Pregnant Man’ Thomas Beatie. She actually looks like a he and has gone so far as to have a phalloplasty.

Good luck with having that thing between your legs.’He’ is going to have to practice peeing into a urinal like a man.

Who would want their little girls in that school to share their bathroom with little Whatzis? And how could you prevent other boys from claiming to be transgender in order to gain access to the girls’ bathroom in order to molest or rape the little girls?

>> The Colorado Rights Division ruled in favor of Coy Mathis <<

Attention "Colorado Rights Division": I woke up this morning and came to terms with the fact I am a "transgendered American" and mentally "feel" female, although in fact I am biologically male.

In order to stop living a lie and feel more comfortable with my orientation, I MUST have access to the ladies dressing room for Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Models immediately. If I could also shower with my fellow ladies, that would be ideal.

Thanks for your understanding about my condition. I am not ashamed of it. And if you call me a guy just because I happen to be biologically male, I will sue your ass.

What is more traumatic — telling a boy who thinks he is a girl that he has to use the boy’s room, or telling a school full of girls that they have to pee with a boy?

If my daughter was a student at that school I’d file suit against the school and the little boy’s parents for molestation she suffered at his hand.I’d sue both for millions and millions.

I’ve been in the ‘parents are crazy’ camp but today learned that Coy was one in a set of triplets. The other two seem to be normal. It’s possible that in the fertilization something went terribly wrong and it’s not just the kid’s and his/her parents’ whim.

i waited on a customer at my nationally
recognizable retail store today...

she was dressed like a guy and had no
detectable breasts that i could see...

her hair was cut short like a man and her face seemed to be shaved but her voice was definitely a woman’s voice...

i didn’t want to picture he/she/whatever at the beach...
the kicker? she/he was buying a man’s pair of swim trunks

“I wonder how much sicker our society can get before the rain of fire and brimstone begins.”

A few days ago, Russia’s Putin said American is the new Sodom and Gomorrah. He is right. I suppose Russia doesn’t have avowed homosexuals in their military.
