GLOUCESTER COUNTY, Va. (WAVY) — A transgender student at Gloucester High School will not be allowed to use the boys restroom. That decision came from the county’s school board Tuesday night, in a 6-1 vote for a policy to have bathrooms used according to sex, not gender identity.
10th grader Gavin Grimm, who was born a girl, says he is a boy and is taking hormone medicine with plans to have a sex change. He doesn’t feel comfortable using the girls bathroom at school, and wants to use the boys bathroom.
The issue was brought before school board members last month, but the vote was tabled until this week, to allow more time for members to study and consider the matter.
In the meantime, the American Civil Liberties Union warned Gloucester County Schools it will sue the school board, if Gavin’s civil rights are violated.

OH MY GOSH....you better do it before Obama and Holder get you to do it!!!
south park did an episode on this. Born a girl, use girl's bathroom until the sex change is complete. If not, any boy can use the girl's restroom and use the same excuse.
As a 65 year old white male, perhaps I should turn bi-sexual. That way I will have an advantage in getting a date on Saturday night.
According to the nation's leading psychologists transgender people suffer from a pschological disorder and not from being born the wrong sex!
He needs a mental hospital.
I also have heard recently that a hormonal imbalance can cause the identity feelings they are describing.
I thought there was a law on the books for the freaks. It went something like if you feel like a male or female on any particular day you can use whatever restroom you prefer.
