A transgender teen used the girls’ locker room. Now the community is up in arms.

When Caitlyn Jenner took to television in April to announce she was transgender, messages of support poured in from across the country. She was featured on the cover of Vanity Fair and received an ESPY award for courage.

But even as Jenner starred in a reality TV docu-series about her transition, a deeper question remained.

If Jenner weren’t already a rich celebrity, would she have received the same support? How would other, less famous transgender Americans be treated?

On Monday morning, a small town in Missouri provided an answer.

For two hours, approximately 150 students stood in front of Hillsboro High School to protest a transgender teen’s use of the girls’ facilities.

And for those same two hours, the 17-year-old transgender teen huddled inside her counselor’s office — with the door locked.

Having a Y chromosome is the telling fact, you can remove the appendage.

It is very sad. The picture depicts a very disturbed young man.

It angers me that the media just goes right along, calling him a “her”, and using the name Lila, obviously not the name he was given.

There’s no such thing as “transgender”. It’s made up. There’s only mental, emotional, and SPIRITUAL illness. Satan is having a hay day with all of this.

It’s not any different than the two ...guys or two chicks...who want a marriage license in Kentucky..
They could go anywhere for the license, but they want to FORCE this woman to do it.

It’ s not about a marriage license or a bathroom...
It’s about forcing people to give up their values, or beliefs

If this school permitted a self-proclaimed “girl” to enter the locker room where my daughter was undressed, it would be the staff that would be involuntarily transgendered.

Johnson doesn’t belong in the girl’s locker room.

"It angers me that the media just goes right along, calling him a “her”,"

It was once a common practice in medicine to try to re orient a confused patient to the reality of person, place and time. Now? Anything goes. This psycho can express whatever its version of reality might be and everyone else must play along.

I wonder — Do the staff and supervisors in city halls and federal buildings around the country enforce this perversion in their restrooms ... or is this something elected officials and judges force only on our children?

Then the headline is a slur on Negroes and unacceptable.

"That teen is a mentally ill boy, dressed in a wig and girls clothes. He needs therapy, not a free ticket into the girls dressing room."

Back in the 1950's, public shame would have forced the boy's family to send him away to live with a distant uncle(institutionalization). Today, public shame rarely exists and the USSC has ruled for the insane. Ozzie and Harriet are dead. Sigh.

It came out as homosexual, found that the real boys don’t want to have sex with it, so it now identifies as a “girl” in a new extreme effort to be accepted by the healthy males as a sex partner.

It is horrifying how many of these men in dresses now identify as “lesbian”, in short, retain sexual attraction to women while wanting to be seen as one.

There are big differences between MASH and today.
* he was clearly doing it as a sane way to get out of the military, he wasn’t crazy only pretending to be, and everyone knew it
* obviously still heterosexual because of his girlfriend and reluctant to sign paperwork agreeing he was homosexual to get kicked out
* the issue of cross-dressing was rightfully seen as ludicrous and funny, not that he changed his sexual identity by changing his clothes

It's taken me a few years, but I finally figured out that I am a lesbian trapped in a man's body. I do have the advantage that I have equipment that allows me to skip batteries and straps to follow my perverse lifestyle. Now that the laws have changed, I can now shower with the girls in gym class. I think I will apply for a job as a girls softball coach so I can come and go into the girls locker room. You should see their faces when I knock the soap out of their hands. Bwa-hahaaahahahaha!

A young girl came home from school and told her mom she thought she was a lesbian. Why would you think that? her mom asked. Well because the teachers told me if I love girls, then your a lesbian. I love you and grandma so much, I must be a lesbian.

Upon hearing this story the two men discussing this conversation exclaimed, we must be lesbians too, we love women. From then on as neighbors they referred to each other as lesbians due to their love of women.
