Illinois School District Must Give Locker Room Access to Transgender Student, U.S. Says
yahoo ^ | Nov. 3, 2015 | Corin Miller

Posted on 11/03/2015 9:19:31 AM PST by bgill

Officials say there was a "a preponderance of evidence” that Township High School District 211, which is based in Palatine, Illinois, failed to comply with Title IX, the federal law that prohibits sex discrimination.

The student filed a complaint with the Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights in 2013 after she was denied the right to have unlimited use of the girls’ locker room, the Chicago Tribune reports. A solution appeared to be in the works, until school officials put up privacy curtains in the locker room and said the student would be required to use the private area while changing.

[[Corin appears to be confused as to what is meant by the word ‘she’.]]

she isn’t confused- she simply is demanding that we take transgenerism off our immorality list, and accommodate her sick twisted mind and perverted agenda

and like the pansies that they are, the schools will comply because a court ILLEGALLY dictates that society no longer has a right to oppose sick twisted minds!

At whose prompting? I seriously doubt the "student" came up with this on HIS own....

This is beyond insanity. Way beyond.....

Why are they not countering with rape stats? If these are intact males, letting them use girls/women locker rooms or bathrooms is asking for rapes to happen.

But then again maybe that is what the LIBTARDS want so they can do more useless studies or take away more rights.

[[I just can’t understand all this accommodation and handwringing for such a minuscule segment of the population. This country has gone insane.]]

It’s not about accommodating a small group of people, it’s about subduing and trampling the rights of the majority- making the majority conform to perverted immoral desires of the few

I have often dreamed of becoming Klingon. Is there a surgical procedure to help me achieve this, and if so...would I then count as the 4th specifies (male, female, trans, Klingy)?

There are men today in prison for exposing their genitals to underage children, it was called child abuse. Now that the government is guilty of it, it is called enlightenment.

Either way, the children suffer.

It’s not about accommodating a small group of people, it’s about subduing and trampling the rights of the majority- making the majority conform to perverted immoral desires of the few.

It is more about making the masses accept an untruth as a truth. Theodore Dalrymple sums it up this process when he compares political correctness to communist propaganda:

“In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose of communist propaganda was not to persuade or convince, not to inform, but to humiliate; and therefore, the less it corresponded to reality the better. When people are forced to remain silent when they are being told the most obvious lies, or even worse when they are forced to repeat the lies themselves, they lose once and for all their sense of probity. To assent to obvious lies is...in some small way to become evil oneself. One's standing to resist anything is thus eroded, and even destroyed. A society of emasculated liars is easy to control. I think if you examine political correctness, it has the same effect and is intended to.”

We live in Orwellian times.

Hope “she” has had a twig and berries-ectomy. If not, she ain’t a she.

Nonsense. If he just dresses up like a girl, he's a weird boy that dresses up like a girl. If he gets his penis and testicles removed and dresses up like a girl, he's a weird mutilated boy that dresses up like a girl.

Females are XX chromosomes.
Males are XY.

Lab test the kid and that’s the door they’ll use.

There’s no such thing as transgender.. chromosomes spell out what you are and any thought otherwise is a psychological issue and bad parenting.

Parents should take their kids out of schools that endorse any of this shxt.

Can’t wait until all the boys are in the girls’ locker rooms taking pictures. It’s already happened in Canada.

Thank you for referencing that article bgill. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

”..., failed to comply with Title IX, the federal law that prohibits sex discrimination."

FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponents Argument

Patriots, please note that the only sex-related issue that the states have ever amended the Constitution to expressly protect, therefore giving the feds the specific power to legislatively address the issue, is voting rights. This is evidenced by the 19th Amendment.

So once again the corrupt federal government has overstepped its constitutional limited powers by creating a constitutionally indefensible PC right, presumably to win votes from low-information voters.

Note that the Founding States had established the federal Senate to protect the states from federal overreach. In this case the Senate should have killed the bill that established the referenced federal law.

So this is constitutionally indefensible federal law is another example why the states need to repeal the ill-conceived 17th Amendment and clean up the Senate.
