I am sorry that some students are confused about their <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Sexual identity\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Sexual_identity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">sexual identity<\/a>, but that does not give them to right to go into any <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Changing room\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Changing_room\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">locker room<\/a> they choose. Can you picture a private club allowing this? Why are we taking privacy away from the children who don&#8217;t have issues? I would suggest setting up separate locker rooms for students with <a class=\"zem_slink\" title=\"Gender identity\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Gender_identity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"wikipedia\">gender identity<\/a> issues, but knowing teenage hormones, I can&#8217;t even imagine the mess that could create. Don&#8217;t any of these people making laws remember what it was like to be a teenager? It is a shame that the students will be the ones who have to suffer for the stupidity of our lawmakers.<\/p>\n<div class=\"zemanta-pixie\" style=\"margin-top: 10px; height: 15px;\"><a class=\"zemanta-pixie-a\" title=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" href=\"http:\/\/www.zemanta.com\/?px\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"zemanta-pixie-img\" style=\"border: none; float: right;\" alt=\"Enhanced by Zemanta\" src=\"http:\/\/img.zemanta.com\/zemified_e.png?x-id=f5321b03-0da7-4541-8189-83d01c861406\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DaTechGuyBlog posted an article today about the new guidelines issued by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Education Department for handling transgender students.
