Gender-affirming bathroom policies are ‘quackery’

Medical experts speak out against supporting transitions for transgender children.

A decision by the US Department of Justice last Friday not to support Obama-era policies on transgender school bathrooms suggests that the LGBT activists are out in the cold.

Mr Obama’s Attorney-General, Loretta Lynch, made a promise to transgenders, especially students in public schools:

“The Department of Justice and, indeed, the entire Obama administration want you to know that we see you, we stand with you, and we will do everything we can to protect you going forward. And please know that history is on your side.”

But history seems to spinning its wheels at the moment. Despite some ambiguous remarks by Mr Trump during his campaign, it appears that he will not go out of his way to defend transgender rights. And his new Attorney-General, Jeff Sessions, according to the LGBT media, is firmly opposed to them.

However, this is not the last word on the issue. On March 28, the US Supreme Court is due to hear a case about transgender bathroom access lodged by a Virginia student, Gavin Grimm. Born a girl, she decided in Year 9 that she was actually a boy. The local school board refused to let her use the boys’ toilets. She sued, and now the case has moved up to the Supreme Court (Gloucester County School Board v GG).

Amongst the briefs filed by “friends of the court” are a number of documents which contend that the transgender agenda will harm students.
