[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So it's not just about medical decisions - cons are coming after trans kids for the clothes they wear, even under a cap & gown. This is a public school, folks, not a private one. A judge said the student had no right to wear what she wanted because it was a voluntary ceremony.

Cons are just plain mean. And rigid. WTF cares what a kid wears under the gown anyway? And forcing girls to wear white dresses in the first place???

I'm sure the right wingers will come back and say judge was right, it's not a constitutional protection. i don't care. It's just plain mean, spiteful, and rigid and it makes your side look petty and small.

[quote]L.B. had selected a dress to wear with her cap and gown. The lawsuit said L.B. had worn dresses to classes and extracurricular events throughout high school, including to a prom last year, and she should not face discriminatory treatment during graduation.

King told L.B.’s mother that the teenager could not participate in the graduation ceremony unless L.B. wears ”‘pants, socks, and shoes, like a boy,’” according to the lawsuit.

Clark wrote in court papers Friday that taking part in a graduation ceremony is voluntary and not a constitutionally protected right for any student.[/quote]

Yep, who cares. Move on.

If it’s voluntary, follow the rules or don’t go. Simple.[/quote]

Thanks for confirming my bias against conservatives as lacking human empathy and being rigid.[/quote]
