Gavin Grimm and the ACLU argue that the Gloucester County School Board violated Title IX when it approved a rule restricting school restrooms to students with “corresponding biological genders.”
A transgender teenager in rural Virginia is taking his case to the U.S. Department of Justice, arguing in a complaint that the Gloucester County School Board violated his rights by approving a policy this month prohibiting students from using restrooms that do not correspond to their “biological genders.”
The complaint, sent Thursday, argues the school board ran afoul of Title IX, a 1972 law that bans gender-based discrimination, which has been interpreted recently to protect students from discrimination based on their gender identify.

But what if they have surgery to mess that all up? Safer to post XX bathroom and XY bathroom.
There’s no such thing as a biological gender.
Words have genders. Humans have sex.
It should be biological sex.
“She is not a he.”
Well if she wants to be a he, it must like girls, so it should be excited to be a he in the girl’s restrooms, no? I think I woulda liked to use the girl’s restroom when I was in High School! Unfortunately, I went to an all boys Prep School.
For some reason, I think this kid’s going to have a very, very hard life.
I think the school’s decision was a fair one. Unfortunately, the kid and his parents do not think so. So off to court we go for our liberal judges to find discrimination and maybe a little cash for the plaintiff and his/her lawyer(s).
King Solomon might have split the kid down the middle and sent each side to the corresponding bathroom. Me, I’d give the kid a pot and key to the broom closet. Not fair ? Who said life’s fair.
A “kitty” loose in the boys’ room, what could possibly go wrong?
So everyone else’s privacy is to be damned for these people?
This person is a girl, not a boy.
Yep.
What is ‘humiliating’ about a unisex bathroom?
This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
I'll take a wild guess and say that Dad isn't in the picture, or is an ineffective father.
This person is a girl who wants to be a boy.
She’s 100% female.
