New government guidance has LGBT rights advocates "thrilled"
In one short paragraph of a 34-page memo released on Dec. 1, the Department of Education articulated a clear stance on gender identity, saying transgender students in public schools should be enrolled in single-sex classes that align with how they live their lives day-to-day.
“We’re thrilled,” says Shannon Minter, the legal director for the National Center for Lesbian Rights. “It’s so critical to the health and well-being of those students, and it’s going to be so helpful to have that guidance in writing so that schools understand what their obligations are.”
The memo is explicit that federal law protects students’ decisions made in accordance with their gender identity. “Under Title IX,” it reads, a school “must treat transgender students consistent with their gender identity in all aspects of the planning, implementation, enrollment, operation, and evaluation of single-sex classes.”

I guess we have to blame Al Gore for that !

I know the feeling.
The GAY White House has spoken.
HAHAHA! I LOVE IT! Maybe us Freepers need to get us some Burkas and start wearing them around. It would make for some interesting conversation at the local farm and garden. =)
And I am sure that your Dachhound would make a fine bride. Or is she the husband? Dang I get so gender-confused sometimes! LOL!
I contemplated walking out also. But, I felt that would not provide the opportunity to speak out and bring up God, so I stayed, and they could not silence me. Not that day.
I think the fags know who to pick on. Usually with the guys its after a night of heavy drinking and the offenders are busted quite regularly. The court martial results are all public information. The only thing they don’t release is the names. The media and the services claims that these assaults are committed by straight males.
So, if this is OK, why shouldn’t a white person be able to self-identify as a black, or a black as a white?
