[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a national news story about litigation about a teenager wearing pants.

I mean, I'm republican and I guess this is silly. I'm surprised the school pushed that hard, but also surprised that this resulted in litigation and national attention.  It's pants. Under a gown. That's pretty androgynous. [/quote]

So it should be fine for all the girls who wanted to wear pants to wear pants, right?[/quote]

Yes, I mean, the entire thing is so petty that even I, lover of petty things, am just kind of astounded at the whole thing. Graduation outfits are as nonbinary as it gets. Who cares. Trans girl overreacting, parents hysterically hiring an attorney, the judge ordering "no, you will wear pants under your shiny gown."  The level of wtf here is impressive. [/quote]

So you wouldn't stick up for your kid who was told something stupid by their school and was forced to do something that went against their very sense of themselves in order to participate in a major childhood ritual? Not impressed.[/quote]

No. I would not sue about this. It's all too ridiculous. Women wear pants too. [/quote]

The trans girl was specifically told she had to “dress like a boy.”

If your non trans daughter was told she had to wear pants even while all the other girls wore dresses and she wanted to wear a dress too, you wouldn’t stick up for her?  Some parent you are. [/quote]
