[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would Stone Ridge consider an application from a transgender student?[/quote]

Yes everyone does. Next!?[/quote]

Is this a definitive response from the school that they would consider an application from a student assigned male at birth? Is there anything in writing to back this up? [/quote]

You’re just too cool for school aren’t you? Everyone’s non binary now or trans.  No one cares PP. Only you trying to harass everyone on DCUM.  Make up your mind, so you want orientation to be an issue or a non-issue?  Because for all of us it’s a non-issue.  But you seem to want to glorify it or make it super special or get special treatment and attention.  [/quote]

Well that sound down the petty rapid responses puppet. [/quote]

???? That comment literally makes no sense: “Well that sound down the petty rapid responses puppet”

Not PP but agree with him/ her … it really is a non issue for me as well. Many young people in general are identifying as all over the map with gender identities ….  SR is no exception and people are trying to not blow stuff out of proportion as they are young and are likely to change their minds/ evolve as they mature … if not, it is up to them and their families to figure out while being respectful of their choices at school … This wide spread gender bending stuff appears to be much higher at every single public and private school, according to friends. We do not know how it will play out yet. In the past, it was rare and mostly mtf but now it is extremely common and mostly ftm. SR is a school and I care about the quality of education, which is excellent.

I don’t think there would be bullying against mtf trans student since several girls have requested to be treated like boys and their wishes are respected. I don’t know why it would be any different for male to female. The question should be whether the student would be a good fit for the school in terms of academics/ athletics/ performing and visual arts offering/ faith etc.

Although I do not think there is likely to be bullying around trans students, I do agree with other PPs that bullying in general needs to be taken seriously. It is not right and there need to be stricter penalties for girls who engage in hurtful behavior. The sacred heart goal of building loving community requires safe spaces for community to grow.
