NEW YORK ― Bahar Akyurtlu had been teaching for about four months at a high school in Harlem before several students began bullying her. When she walked down the halls, clusters of students would shout at her, referring to her as mister. In stairwells, students would yell that her voice sounded like a man.
The harassment didnt surprise her, even if it stung, cutting to the core of her identity. Sadly, she sees it as one of the occupational hazards of being a transgender teacher, she said.
In February, the Trump administration rolled back protections for transgender students. It rescinded guidance that called on school districts to allow students to use the bathroom that corresponds with their gender.
LGBTQ students were not the only people in schools that this action impacted. Transgender educators ― even if the move did not necessarily impact the bathroom they use ― had to watch as the rights of LGBTQ students were severed, while facing their own, unique workplace challenges.
The exact number of transgender people who work as educators are unknown, and overall, exact data on the issue is hard to come by. But the ones who do work in education often have to navigate a sticky web of parents, students and colleagues who have varying levels of acceptance, amid a backdrop of minimal workplace protections, The Huffington Post found after interviewing seven transgender educators in March....

And there actually people who believe that it's happening in "Donald Trump's America", and would not be happening if Trump were not president?
How dumb can people be, or how willfully self-deluded?
baseball never sounded so complicated.
Both seemed very self centered, and ready to proselytize for their personal brand of sexuality.
I didn’t read much about student achievement scores.
These are kids with low grades who need remedial help, primarily with their academics though, not with their gender identity.
Future school districts be careful who you hire. The second teacher speaks as though she/he would sue if he didn’t get a chance to ‘tell all’ about himself to the schoolchildren.
Sorry freak, being a good teacher means teaching, and leave your private life private, and save conversations about "gender" to the English teachers...
I can't think of anything that would cause any children or grandchildren in my family to go to any lengths to avoid being in the same room as a sicko, militant pervert! Don't care a whit how good a teacher he says he is...
He has no clue that his head isn't on right.
He knows he’s nuts; all deviants do. I doubt the “strides” they’ve made in the past decade have reduced the drug/alcohol abuse and depression they suffer.
What did Trump do?
Here we go again. Since there is no genetic component to homosexuality or transgenderism, they are behaviors and behaviors only.
But behaviors do not automatically confer rights.
Because Harlem is the epicenter of Trump's America.
I like that sign!
They have lost their minds..
I had it made by CafePress. They have a blank rainbow magnet that you can have printed with any message.
This one is on my car.
Grab a padded room and significant psychiatric help. Use meds as needed.
Nature is cruel to actually make some people believe they are the opposite gender of what they are. They need help; not help to keep up with their delusions.
What it should be like is unemployed!
So just as the country dealt with homosexuality by solving the issue politically, we are also going to decree this is not a medical problem. Instead these people are to become willing props for liberal agendas. Well, a lot of good information will have to be suppressed in the process. Here are a few links I have found.

Why should he have more protection under the law than anyone else?
He teaches math, gender discussions should have no part in that.
