Over 150 Students Walk Out Of School To Protest Transgender Teen Using Girls’ Locker Room

HILLSBORO, Mo. (CBS St. Louis) – Over 150 Missouri high school students voiced their displeasure about a transgender teen using the girls’ locker room by walking out of class.

Students at Hillsboro High School staged a two-hour walkout Monday over 17-year-old Lila Perry, a student who has identified as a female since she was 13, using the girls’ locker room during gym class.

The school offered Perry a gender-neutral bathroom, which she turned down. St. Louis attorney Timm Schowalter says, “All students have a right, under Title 9, to access the bathroom of their choice.”

I'm with them 100% on this one. It's the first time I remember being in favor of students defying a school. They should have stayed out longer than 2 hours.

Did the walkout coincide with their gym class?

It doesn't say.
Would a gym class last for 2 hours?

The subject of the article seems to be a twitty teen who thinks the world revolves around him..................pretty typical of many teens I think. I suspect there will be a law suit shortly.

Good for them.

You can't just decide you're a different gender.

If you try it, you should get scorn, ridicule, or a one way trip to the nearest nuthouse..probably all three.

all 3 !! Course the transgender is probably 'special needs' so IT will be catered to !!

They should all take a full day off. When the school start's losing their funding for daily attendance it will get their attention.

And if it has a penis it isn't a she.

I think you need to use the facilities designed for the way you are plumbed.

Everybody has rights, including those in the majority whose privacy in invaded by having someone of a different gender using their locker room. Common sense needs to be invoked here.
