Now that is going to create a case that goes all the way to the Supreme Court.
If it has to go that far. Probably only in blue states.

‘Intolerant, Homophobic:’ CA Mother Claims Special Needs Teenager Was Targeted for Not Embracing LGBT Lessons
ALANA MASTRANGELO
12 May 2023
A mother is claiming her special needs daughter is under attack by her own high school teachers in California, who allegedly called her a “bigot” after she mistakenly forgot to use someone’s fake gender pronouns, objected to participating in a lesson about lesbian sex — which involved a lecture on “scissoring” — and refused to get undressed near male teachers.
Marina Vivar has checked a box excusing her daughter from being taught about “anything LGBTQ+ or about sexual acts which were gay in nature,” when signing her up for a course on health and relationships at Glendale High School, according to a report by Fox News.

But her decision to exempt her special needs daughter from learning about LGBT content was not respected by the school, the mother said, adding that her daughter, Thelma Gonzalez, was taught about lesbian sex.
Furthermore, teachers called her daughter a “bigot, intolerant and homophobic,” Vivar said, noting that her family doesn’t use those terms at home, and Gonzalez’s disability prevents her from finding those words in her own. Therefore, she only could have learned them in school.
“My teachers were going to send me to the principal office when I told them that it was against my beliefs and that I felt uncomfortable,” Gonzalez said. Additionally, the student said that she felt uncomfortable changing for gym class.
“I once got in trouble in the girls’ locker room because I did not dress down in front of other people,” she said. “There are male teachers inside the girls’ locker room talking to Ms. Lewis. Her office [which is inside the locker room] has her door open and there are male teachers inside her office.”
“I never wanted to see that, that’s why I don’t dress out to P.E. I was scared, I was terrified, because I was afraid of an adult male staring at me while I was changing. That’s why I don’t change,” the teen added.
Glendale High Communications Director Kristine Nam disputes the claims, telling Fox News that “the lesson Ms. Vivar is referencing was a general lesson from the health textbook about making healthy decisions in your relationships. The teacher did ask Ms. Vivar’s daughter to refrain from making inappropriate remarks in response to a reference to LGBTQ+ relationships.”
“At no point would a male teacher or coach have reason to enter the girls’ locker room. Male and female coaches have separate offices and these offices are completely separate from the locker room changing areas,” Nam added. “Even if a male coach were to enter the female coaches’ office, the office does not have a window into the girls’ locker room. It is a completely different space separated by a brick wall.”
Nonetheless, the Glendale Unified School District has been slammed in recent months in the wake of a new policy that permits teachers to lie to parents about a student’s gender identity, and after the district sent LGBTQ+ educational materials to teachers for use during pride month without parental knowledge, Fox News noted.

Man Takes Dog to Vet for ‘Gender Transition’ in Viral Video, Highlights Insanity of Child Sex Reassignment
By Margaret Flavin
Apr. 16, 2023 7:30 pm
In an amusing, and at the same time troubling, viral video, a man brings his dog into a veterinary clinic for “gender transition.”
He shares that the dog, festooned in a pink tutu, is male but wants to put the tutu on every time he sees it. He must identify as a female then, right?
“We want to do a gender transition to make him female….but we don’t want to neuter him,” the owner says.
When the staff balks, he asks, “You guys don’t offer sex changes here?”
“No we do not,’ the staff replies. “Go somewhere with a specialist…..we are not a behavioral clinic. We are a general clinic.”
The owner responds, “I wouldn’t call that behavioral. You’re saying gender identity is behaviouralism?”
The staff asks the man to leave and as he departs he says, “I’m reporting this to the LGBTQ+ minus 2 Association of America.”

While an amusing prank, it highlights the absurdity of transitioning a being that is unable to fully give consent. Yet radicals are comfortable providing body maiming surgery and pumping still developing bodies full of chemicals to children.

I believe the student. If she felt unsafe changing then she probably was. They are treating her with disregard for her civil rights under ADA.
