If someone wants to go through sex reassignment surgery, they should not be discriminated against for using the facilities matching their new parts. If not, they should be using the facilities matching their existing parts, or some private accommodation where parts don't matter. jerrye92002https://www.blogger.com/profile/01858692298982859775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193628934721963907.post-21846177999499549652016-05-09T16:26:46.649-05:002016-05-09T16:26:46.649-05:00Thank you and this one looks closest.

Bd.</a>, __ F.3d __, 2016 WL 1567467 (4th Cir. Apr. 19, 2016). The district court dismissed a Title IX sex discrimination claim brought by a transgender boy high school student who was denied access to the boys' restroom. Reversing and remanding the case for further proceedings, the Court of Appeals held: "At the heart of this appeal is whether Title IX requires schools to provide transgender students access to restrooms congruent with their gender identity," and the district court failed to give appropriate deference to the U.S. Department of Education's interpretation of how its own sex discrimination regulation should apply to transgender students. That interpretation was set forth in a January 15, 2015 letter from the Department's Office for Civil Rights, which advised: "When a school elects to separate or treat students differently on the basis of sex . . . a school generally must treat transgender students consistent with their gender identity."Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991027705809503541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193628934721963907.post-90795453491171229042016-05-09T15:30:27.126-05:002016-05-09T15:30:27.126-05:00EEOC on Title VII and LGBT Discrimination<a href="https://www.eeoc.gov/eeoc/newsroom/wysk/lgbt_examples_decisions.cfm" rel="nofollow"> EEOC on Title VII and LGBT Discrimination</a>Seanhttp://brickcityblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193628934721963907.post-44079405121524631692016-05-09T15:04:31.859-05:002016-05-09T15:04:31.859-05:00Source please...Source please...Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14991027705809503541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193628934721963907.post-83955535558929808552016-05-09T13:34:19.156-05:002016-05-09T13:34:19.156-05:00There is conflicting case law on this issue.
