Asked for further explanation on the departments position, Hill said Friday, Title IX prohibits discrimination on the basis of sex, not gender identity. She added that certain types of transgender complaints may be investigated but not bathroom complaints. Where students, including transgender students, are penalized or harassed for failing to conform to sex-based stereotypes, that is sex discrimination prohibited by Title IX, Hill said. In the case of bathrooms, however, long-standing regulations provide that separating facilities on the basis of sex is not a form of discrimination prohibited by Title IX. https://www-buzzfeed-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.buzzfeed.com/amphtml/dominicholden/edu-dept-trans-student-bathrooms Boooooooo. Update Title IX and put an end to this. --- Nominate METAL MAN for 20XX! http://i.imgur.com/Dr4NAeq.png ... Copied to Clipboard! |
