The Supreme Court on Tuesday passed up a chance to intervene in the debate over bathrooms for transgender students, rejecting an appeal from an Indiana public school district.
Federal appeals courts are divided over whether school policies enforcing restrictions on which bathrooms transgender students can use violate federal law or the Constitution.
In the case the court rejected without comment, the Chicago-based 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld an order granting transgender boys access to the boys’ bathroom. The appeal came from the Metropolitan School District of Martinsville, about 30 miles (48 kilometers) southwest of Indianapolis.
I think this is goofy. More than half my life I’ve heard the word transexual and I certainly don’t think it’s offensive.
Because you are old. Also this is to help young people understand better. We will not convince the fossils.
Retard used to be the nice word back in the day. Language evolves and people suck. It can be difficult to accept both.
I prefer transexual if I’m honest though, Transgender feels flimsier. I’m not trying to transcend the idea of what gender you see, I’m trying to transcend the boundaries of biological sex
That is implicitly more powerful to me.
