A judge has dismissed a lawsuit contesting a transgender woman’s admission into a sorority at the University of Wyoming, ruling that he could not override how the private, voluntary organization defined a woman and order that she not belong.
In the lawsuit, six members of the Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority chapter challenged Artemis Langford’s admission by casting doubt on whether sorority rules allowed a transgender woman. Wyoming U.S. District Court Judge Alan Johnson, in his ruling, found that sorority bylaws don’t define who’s a woman.
The case at Wyoming’s only four-year public university drew widespread attention as transgender people fight for more acceptance in schools, athletics, workplaces and elsewhere, while others push back.
Oh, you’re one of those types, huh.
But please. Continue telling a woman who has a “traumatic past” what we can or can no be afraid of (thank you OH so much for your benevolent permission 🙄). I’m not in the slightest afraid of trans women, never have been, and oh, hey, trans women are more likely to be victims of sexual assault that perpetrators of it. But go off.
I’m not telling any woman anything. I’m merely pointing out that there’s real people with real issues that are ignored when you just blanket call it ridiculous. You don’t have to be in a group to be able to point out rationales.
Uh huh.
Look at you, completely blowing off the words of a woman in that group you’re supposedly defending. But then, I’m saying something you don’t want to hear and doesn’t fit the narrative you’ve constructed as your excuse to hate trans folks.
Stop using women as your excuse. You don’t care about us, not really. If you did, you’d be out there protesting with that same full-throatedness at male guards assaulting women in prisons and the 1-in-4 statistic. But you’re not. You’re raging at a marginalized group that is statistically more often the victim of assaults than the ones doing it. But you don’t care at all about that, do you.
The only person you’re fooling is yourself.
The one in four statistic is bullshit. All I’m doing is saying that they have the right to not like it. If they have reasons it doesn’t matter what they are. It’s their house where they live, where they sleep where they shower. They want to feel safe and they don’t feel safe so they are making complaints and everyone in this thread is calling them bigots because they don’t like it.
Yeah, you’re not worth any more of my time and you definitely don’t actually care about women. You have the mediocre day you deserve.
As with many polls the poll done for the 1 in 4 statistic was extremely vague and broad. It wasn’t rape, it wasn’t sexual assault. If I remember correctly it was something like being made to feel uncomfortable.
Since you might miss it if you already read my other response here’s a breakdown from a left leaning news source.
