The new directive certainly makes incidents like this more likely to happen.

A common tactic of the left when they are beaten in an argument (in addition to changing the subject as Bryce noted) is to accuse their opponents of being homophobic or racist.

Don't include me in that... My argument is this is not an enabler...

Surely the timing is completely coincidental that this "guidance" was released late in the same week that Ben Rhodes shot off his mouth about how he manipulated the Iran deal into being.

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised that many of those on the social left have no problem with this, as an abuse of power in their favor is welcome. However, an abuse of power is still an abuse.

Devils advocate question here that is still on target. Let's say a boy, who feels he is a girl, wants to join a girls sports team and likewise a girl feels she is a boy and wants on a boy sports team, does this new rule also cover that? if not then those "rights" are still being violated, right?

From the "directive".

Title IX regulations permit a school to operate or sponsor sex-segregated athletics teams
when selection for such teams is based upon competitive skill or when the activity involved is a
contact sport.16 A school may not, however, adopt or adhere to requirements that rely on overly
broad generalizations or stereotypes about the differences between transgender students and
other students of the same sex (i.e., the same gender identity) or others’ discomfort with
transgender students.17 Title IX does not prohibit age-appropriate, tailored requirements based on
sound, current, and research-based medical knowledge about the impact of the students’
participation on the competitive fairness or physical safety of the sport.18

Bryce if I reading what you posted right then the transgender student is being discriminated against so i assume it will only be a matter of time until that is changed as well.

Reading the "directive" from the administration in toto, if one follows the "directive", a boy who identifies as a girl and wants to join the girl's volleyball team would have to be allowed to do so.

And although freely running his mouth in the "press", he refused to testify in front of Congress citing executive privilege.

We should be regulating Church bathrooms...

As the transgender bathroom issue gathers steam it’s worth considering this grim fact: Despite all those transgender bathroom laws GOP state legislatures keep passing, a child is far more likely to be molested at church.

In 2014 the US Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) came out with a report on sexual abuse in the Catholic church. It turns out that from 1950-2013, 17,259 victims made accusations and 6,427 clerics had been counted as “not implausibly” or “credibly” accused. This doesn’t even account for underreporting or include the unusually large number victims who came forward in 2003 in the wake of the Boston Globe‘s eye-opening report on sexual abuse in the Catholic church by their Spotlight team.

Alas, a transgender bathroom law wouldn’t have helped a single one of these victims, many of whom have had to live in silence with their trauma and shame for decades.

You are excepted. I do not recall you resorting to lazy -ist/-phobic name-calling.

Thank you, that kind of stuff is rather tiresome anyways.

I suddenly regret starting this thread. Now remember children, actions have consequences.

And this is the consequence of going overboard on the booger sugar...



ETA: I didn't know Dave Mustaine and Tori Amos had a child!
