Make a third restroom, locker room. Why should girls have to suffer and be uncomfortable. Let the trans people have their own.....everyone wins.

Schools have tried that, you can't make the Woke people happy.

I don't care what you THINK, NOTHING has changed THAT!

I've been told that after several months of hormone treatment a M to F becomes impotent, and then several surgical procedures to be completed. Once the male genitals are removed, there's no going back. No more penis. Surgeons create a vagina with labia. No, I haven't seen anything nor have had anything but a platonic relationship we grew up together as next door neighbors.

The only things missing are ovaries & womb. Yes, she needs to take female hormones for the rest of her life and blends seamlessly into society. Drivers license and birth certificate both reflect her new gender.

It's easy to feel the "need" to ridicule and abuse things you don't understand but when you see someone you know or a family member going through this your opinion may change. I've known this person since I was 12 (see previous post#23) and have been more of a "big brother" to him/her and it was difficult to accept. I really don't see any need for the bias and hate, be it racial or otherwise.

If it has a twig and berries, it isn't a girl, despite what it calls itself. There are most likely real girls that don't want to dress or shower with said twig and berries, and they have rights, too.

Maybe the twig and berries can change in the janitor's closet.

I wish I could find the link but I can't. I read a story by a psychiatrist who said that about 90% of those who had the surgery regret it later on.

It’s not. Both they and their parents are less likely to push for it, so there are less cases. In the schools with my student teachers the trans-male students seem to have no issue with continuing to use the girls’ facilities. Among the things most likely impacting this difference is that girls are less likely to pick on a trans-male student than boys are to pick on a trans-female or trans-male student.

However, the latest school case that won in the courts was out of Virginia and involved a former trans-male or trans-female student.

You "read a story" are you acquainted with any trans people ? There's one the same age as I am and I've known her for 42 years. I was her friend and stood up for her in school when she was male and I'm still her friend.
I'm also acquainted with one of her trans friends and they both strike me as confident, secure women. That's rather a small percentage, but thats my observation and not based on any stories I've read.
