[VA] Judge denies transgender student’s request to use boys’ bathroom
Washington Post ^ | 9/4/15 | Julie Zauzmer

A federal judge has denied a transgender teenager’s request to allow him to use the same bathroom as his peers at his public school in Virginia.

Instead, the judge ruled Friday, the teenager must continue using a separate, private bathroom that he has said makes him feel “singled out and humiliated.”

Gavin Grimm, a teenage boy who was born female, used the boys’ bathroom for seven weeks with no problem, according to the American Civil Liberties Union, which brought a lawsuit against the Gloucester County School Board on his behalf.

But then parents heard about the teen using the boys’ restroom and complained. The school board passed a rule, 6 to 1, that restricts the bathrooms to students of the “corresponding biological genders.”

But no amount of modification can change your gender

What gender you are

Gender is a linguistic term (his/her...masculine/feminine)

The biological term is "sex". "Transgenders" change what they wish to be called. "Transexuals" think they are changing their sex by modifying their "junk".

I wandered into the men’s room at Walmart and changed a diaper once. (The baby was a couple of weeks old: I was a zombie.) A man walking in as I was walking out looked at me a little funny but didn’t say anything.

That’s an interesting line of thought — the normal chromosome makeups are XY for male and XX for female, so even the guys have an X side.

But that doesn’t make perversion any more okay... call me old fashioned but God designed it all.

I experienced that in the early 90’s in Czechoslovakia.

We were like “what the hell is this old bag doing in the men’s room”, and when she got in our face asking for money she had a problem.

Why do men have nipples?

The Bible says the man was created first, and the woman from the man. In that case, the man has nipples just because he does, and the elaboration of the woman's breasts to nurse babies came second.

The creation of the woman out of the man followed a period when the man observed the animals, that they had mates, but he had none yet.

A potentiality put in there by God to be worked out under the right circumstances. People weren’t ashamed to be naked until swallowing the forbidden fruit, which offered what was an illusion.

Sex is determined once the ovum is fertilized.

Wrong. Why do men have nipples?

It has nothing to do with nipples. It has to do with XY chromosomes. Sheesh, learn some biology.

I have 3 1/2 bathrooms in my house. None of them are marked "Men" or "Women". You go in there, do your business, and get out.

and you do not share them at the same time with 20 people who aren't your same sex.

No agenda here, none at all:

A federal judge has denied a transgender teenager’s request to allow him to use the same bathroom as his peers at his public school in Virginia.

BTW, watch for this judge to be impeached and removed; he evidently did not get the memo.

Well, right, but if the man was created, he was created with nipples, because he has them now.

I don’t really keep track of who comes and goes from them. I have both males and females in my house. I’m married to a female. We are basically humans with different body parts but in the end, when nature calls, it all ends up in the same place. A leeching field somewhere in my yard. I don’t like to dwell on it too much. Every few years, a big smelly truck comes to my house to pump it all out.

Notice how this juge is a mean old grinch, while that Kentucky judge is being applauded for throwing a state official in the pokey for denying a gay marriage license.

Nah, the Media is biased!

Gender is not that restrictive a term. It can be used as a synonym for sex.

The front, below your waist, is either a pitcher or a catcher architecture. How a person wants to think, talk, dress, cut their hair, dress, etc is a choice caused by either the participation into the illusions or acceptance of the realities within the mind.
