INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — A federal judge issued a preliminary injunction Friday ordering a central Indiana middle school to allow a transgender student to have access to the boys restroom.
The order issued by U.S. District Judge Tanya Walton Pratt requires John R. Wooden Middle School to allow the seventh-grader identified only as A.C. to have access to the restroom while litigation continues.
Pratt cited Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972. Title IX protects people from discrimination based on sex in education programs or activities that receive federal financial assistance.
“The overwhelming majority of federal courts — including the Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit — have recently examined transgender education-discrimination claims under Title IX and concluded that preventing a transgender student from using a school restroom consistent with the student’s gender identity violates Title IX. This Court concurs,” Pratt wrote in her ruling.
“The law is clear: denying transgender students their right to use the correct restroom is discrimination,” Stevie Pactor, an ACLU of Indiana attorney, said in a statement. “We hope that public schools and legislators will take notice and forgo future challenges by providing equal treatment to all students.”
“We are happy that, with this order, our client will have the same opportunities as his peers to learn, grow, and succeed at school,” Megan Stuart, an attorney for Indiana Legal Services, said in the statement. “His worries should be about things like homework and friendships, not whether he can use a restroom.”

I assume it’s a girl who wants to use the boys restroom in this case.
Just keep voting. As if it matters.
“Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972”
Sorry, it uses the word “sex” not gender, or gender identity.
Obambi put the Identity bit out there as an interpretation for time, but it was thrown away by our PDJT, the GOAT.
If she has a pecker, let her use the urinals. No pecker, she is going to have a hard time squatting over the urinal.
I wanna witness it pee in a urinal. I’ll bet it pees all over itself.
Wait until she gets slapped in the ass and then tries to sue. Then she gets told “guys do that sh*t in the bathroom all the time.”
Yes.
And its just as wrong as the reverse.
This young gal is going to get a hellava education in the boys’ bathroom. Those boys will be strutting their stuff in her face with some clever (for the boys) remarks.
I noticed about ten years ago urinals in airports were no longer against the wall models, but we’re tapered bowl models extending out well from the wall. I women would be ask to stand above the bowl.
I realized it was to “accommodate” the minuscule number of women who pretend to be men.
The young female has mental issues. The judge is a reckless scumbag.
See post ten.
needs access to a mental facility not the men’s room!
Send the money back and tell the Feds to pound sand.
I found one urinal in a Walmart the other day that was so high up only an NBA player could use it. I guess we can aim high and fire.
Indulging delusions always has bad consequences.
Another sicko judge weighs in.
Just another person trying to get their jollies by faking being another sex.
