In what is likely to become a common occurrence in the near future, 150 Missouri high school students walked out of class Monday due to a disagreement as to whether or not a transgender student who was born male should be allowed to use the girls’ locker room.
From KMOV 4 St. Louis:
**The walkout lasted for about two hours. Roughly 30-40 people showed support for senior Lila Perry, who wants to use the girls’ locker room during gym class. Perry was born a male but said she has identified as a female since 13.
**“There’s a lot of ignorance, they are claiming that they’re uncomfortable. I don’t believe for a second that they are. I think this is pure and simple bigotry,” said Perry.
**A short distance away, a counter protest was being held by people claiming they have relatives at the high school.
It appears that the students were split as to whether or not they felt comfortable with the arrangement and the ordeal lasted for about 2 hours.
The school apparently offered Perry a gender neutral bathroom, which he rejected claiming, “I am a girl, I shouldn’t be pushed off to another bathroom.”
This is probably the most interesting aspect of the story. The school, which was clearly caught in a tough spot, offered a perfectly reasonable compromise to the situation and Lila Perry refused.
The way things are trending right now, the LGBT community doesn’t really care whether or not parents are comfortable with their teenage children being forced to share bathrooms and locker rooms with children of the opposite sex.
Perry even went so far as to say that he doesn’t believe the situation bothered anyone, opponents of the move were just bigots.
This represents the false liberal narrative that has been successfully used to demonize anyone who doesn’t agree with absolutely everything the LGBT community is asking for.
A parent who does not want their child, who they still have full legal control of, changing in the same locker room as a child with the genitalia of the opposite sex is not a bigot. Automatically labeling them as one does nothing to further the conversation.
Perry dropped out of the gym class but will keep using the girls’ restroom.
It’s hard not to be concerned by the degree to which the PC police have taken over society. This serves as yet another example of the supreme intolerance of the left. “My way or the highway”.
There is room for different opinions in this world, but it is the parent’s decision what their children are exposed to when they send them off to public school, not the media’s. Period.

They marxists have crossed the line.
History has shown only violent repression to be an effective solution.
I wonder how many of these perverts refer to their pets as boy and girl according to their genitaliia? I have yet to hear about their lbgt dogs and cats. Must not be natural.
Priceless!
Since you ask, a great deal sicker. I could plot the decline on practically a monthly basis since the Halfrican broke in to the White House.
If he agrees to have is “part” cut off, then let him go in the girls room. I figure that will separate the truly crazy ones from those simply looking for a thrill.
It would be interesting if a bunch of boys decided to declare they were girls, go out for tryouts for the girls basketball team, and displace all the real girls from the team.
I’m happy this article is using the proper pronouns.
And then walk in on the girls.
Pretty much EVERY teenage boy is content to say whatever is necessary to gain access to naked girls.
I must be a lesbian stuck in a man’s body, because I really want to use the girl’s locker room.
There are grammar police, you know. Can’t get them upset. :>)

That gets my vote for statement of the year!
And that pesky Y chromosome.
Maybe this is an effort to increase the national birth rate. Whaddayathink?
So in the PC battle of “Rape Culture” vs. “Transgender Rights,” I guess we now know that Transgender Rights wins. At least until he rapes someone.
Mr. Perry is simply a sicko trannie activist and he should not be allowed to use the girls’ restroom either.
Why not build Fucatoriums?... like the Romans had..
Morality is on a slippery slope.. (well greased..)
To wit: Trumps following of fellow Connivers..
TRUMP is the conniving Super Hero... the “Deal” Maker..
He draws even amateur connivers.. he’s a professional..
What he says is music to their ears.. much like OBAMA..
I’m glad that somebody has the balls to stand up to these fascists.
