Post by JoAnnDallas »

A Fort Worth TG student threatened to sue the School District and won. The School District is changing their policy and will allow the TG student to attend classes as a female.

JoAnn,
I know for a fact it is happening all over, but what price do kids have to pay?

I have a close friend who teaches on a collage campus and she tell me they are not to say a word to the crossdressing students.

Hi Ladies
Coming out in high school is really throwing yourself under the bus. At least wait until college. You're going to get crucified in high school. You better be 6'5",240 and a black belt. That's a bad move. Hugs


Love

Actually, she could and had been attending enfemme.

She was expelled for swearing at a teacher and made up the story that it was for crossdressing.

The student was "crossdressed" in class and the teacher asked her to remove her wig in class?? Hell, I'd swear too!!!! Weird!
Well, Michael Savage, has lost another listener!!! Tonight, he mentioned that "20/20" had or was doing a report on TG students and that more and more schools were accepting this. He went on a rant about how "we" were nuts and mentally unbalanced and perverted! Bye, bye you bigotted, half-wit!

Follow up story from Channel 11 siad that the offending words was "bullshit". Now IMHO that is no way a swear word and not grounds for subspension.

You don't live in Ohio then. :)
I am a social worker and I have had kids repeatedly suspended for swearing. Our school system has a zero tolerance policy for everything. Three day suspension is standard for swearing.
