I am personally, hands on, going through this right now with my 16-year-old.
YOU'VE read things. And have no personal experience.
"Trans Kids" -- means school. That is where most kids learn to socialize and find out who they are.
School is absolutely where this fight belongs.
Students don't go to public school to explore their sexuality. That is a process solely reserved for their own personal time and has no place in a classroom. Students go to public schools to learn life skills and that is the ONLY commission of said institutions.
Most kids don't start having sex until college. They've run studies here and something like 17% of students lose their virginity while still attending high school, and they almost certainly did NOT lose their actual virginity inside the school.
I fail to see how the student's sexuality has any relevance to the classroom experience. The student does not attend classes for the purpose of discussion about their sexuality.
Like I said before, maybe a topic for discussion in health and biology. Outside of that I fail to see how the students sexuality is at all relevant for math class. Care to explain the relationship between human sexuality and algebra?
