Exactly Who is Going to Feel Uncomfortable Here?
I'm shaking my head over this one. Where are we heading anyhow? How slippery is this slope? How much sense does this make? Everything nowadays seems to fall under discrimination doesn't it? Isn't this just another "all about me" moment?
Another news story from Focus and I'm looking at the operative words here......"she" and "men's locker rooms."
A student is accusing Massachusetts' Northern Essex Community College of discrimination for not allowing her to use the men’s locker room.
Elizabeth Santiago, who is biologically female but calls herself “Ethan” and presents herself as a male, said she would feel uncomfortable using the women’s locker room.
The college said Elizabeth could be in danger of being sexually assaulted in the men’s locker room. The student filed a complaint against the school, the Eagle-Tribune of North Andover, Mass., reported.
“This tiny minority of students — less than a fraction of 1 percent of the population — is asking the rest of society to not only affirm them in their gender confusion and pain, but to radically reorder the ways in which the culture makes reasonable and rational accommodation for the two genders,” said Caleb H. Price, social research analyst for Focus on the Family.
Officials at Southern Utah University are facing a similar situation. Kourt Osborn, who was born a female but self-identifies as a male, is accusing the school of sexual discrimination for not allowing her to live in a male dormitory.
