    Public Schools and transgender bathrooms.

    SnowyJ replied to imintrouble's topic in School

    I, too have wondered about the locker room issue. Especially when we have swimming. Do boys who identify as female use the showers/locker room when changing for swimming? What do they wear to swim in?...

    Public Schools and transgender bathrooms.

    SnowyJ replied to imintrouble's topic in School

    "I didn't post this to argue the rightness or wrongness of the issue. I didn't post it to debate civil rights..." Clearly, it was not the objective of the OT to debate the rights of the Transgender...

    Public Schools and transgender bathrooms.

    Public Schools and transgender bathrooms.

    Public Schools and transgender bathrooms.

    SnowyJ replied to imintrouble's topic in School

    OK, to start with, this is a DIRECTIVE from Obama to school districts, not a law. Hence, individual school admin is not required by law to enforce. The day may come when it is a law, but as of right...
