When the principal of an Oklahoma high school says we didn't know that student was male, I believe it.
Because I have been to Oklahoma.
I'm not defending anything. As always, I'm blessed/cursed with the ability to see both sides of an issue.
Considering I have family there, I’ve probably spent more time in Oklahoma than you unless you actually live there. Are you implying that people from Oklahoma can’t spot an Adam’s apple?
Yes, you are defending the school as well as defending the idea that males should be allowed in spaces that should be for women only. Hence why you claimed that the school isn’t at fault.
Care to address the part where the male student made previous threats yet was still allowed access to his victim?

I'm saying that people in Oklahoma won't abide a male in the girl's bathroom. A poster upthread, that I just saw, said the principal knew before the incident that the student was male. I'd like to know how long she knew that, and whether she had time to make a thoughtful decision.
I'm not defending the thought that a male belongs in the women's room, and I have always been quite vocal about that. Males don't belong in women's only areas, or on women's sports teams.
And I bet you haven't spent more time in Oklahoma than I have.
And if I'm not mistaken, Oklahoma as of just recently has decided to teach evolution. So, progress.

If they are going to teach evolution, then they need to warn children that the opposite can happen as well if we are not careful. USA society seems to be devolving. That's the only way I can figure that we allow this sort of madness to go on.

What thoughtful decision needed to be made after the male student threatened someone egregiously enough that the police got involved? The school is 100% at fault for allowing the male student on the premises at all, regardless of what sex either party is. The fact that it’s once again someone from the lgbt+ crowd engaging in violence is just a bonus.
This is kind of an unusual case. According to the article, this student was enrolled by his/her mother, and the mother listed the student as "female". And the principal had no cause to disbelieve the child was female.
What are you supposed to do, in that case? I can't see how, if this is all true, the school is at fault.
Don't the schools still require birth certificates to verify anymore?
Note - I checked and a birth certificate is required by schools in OK

You really will defend any stupidity that comes from the progressives to the death, won’t you? Let’s pretend for a moment that a 17-year-old male dressed in drag can’t be told apart from real girls. How about this part of the story:
So, we have a male student pretending to be a girl - poorly, judging by the violent anger issues, I might add - who previously made threats of such a level that the police were called to search him for weapons. Yet, that male student was allowed unsupervised access to his victim. You don’t see how the school is at fault there? Really? Are school personnel not required to provide a safe environment for children in your world? Are schools just supposed to be free-for-all slugfests where the kids can beat on anyone they want to?
Schools have been a free for all towards some students for decades.

I'm proud to say that that high school is my alma mater. Beating people up in bathrooms is a proud tradition for us EMHS Bulldogs.

It’s unusual to not show a birth certificate when you register your child for school.

I think we need to take this outside.
