Right-wingers outraged after school district suspends boys for bullying trans student
-
Funny how we make up excuses for trans kids, when everyone else would rightfully be called out for the shocking invasion of privacy. Fuck that school. And fuck its representatives who had nothing to say about a student filming underage boys in a lockerroom.
Sure sure,
On the flipside though, if this student had been verbally and physically harassed multiple times while in the locker room while staff ignored his complaints, then he may have felt compelled to film simply to prevent worse harassment from occuring.
Clearly, there is more going on than what information is publicly available.

I agree completely and I'm impressed that you were so cordial with @Bytemeister@lemmy.world
You sound like they shouldve been rude instead.

I think a lot of people have not read the article. Locker rooms/changing rooms are already uncomfortable. If there was a girl in my locker room in school, I would have been uncomfortable too. From the article, I wouldn't go so far as to call it bullying, and suspending the students, but it's clear that this is a time to have a talk with them, and if he is willing, the trans student as well.
In fairness to the school district, they said they would not have suspended the students for something like this, and they are investigating. So chances are there is more that happened than what is in the news cycle.
Think about you HS days. Did you ever here a boy say "I am feeling uncomfortable" and not being sarcastic. and acting suprised... it was march. They knew who the person was. They were calling it out to be mean and make the person uncomfortable or even afraid. They were trying to build momentum and to get others to join in the harassment.

I agree, but let's analyze this a bit further... Who's personal experience should dictate school safety procedures?
Whose*
