In Maine last week, the Maine Human Rights Commission ruled that a child who is biologically male but self-identifies as female must be allowed to use the girls bathroom at her school.  The child, a fifth-grader, had been allowed to use the girls bathroom until another child began harrassing her.  The other child, a non-transgender boy, was encouraged to use the girls bathroom whenever the transgender girl was using it.  He also called the girl "->-bleeped-<-got" and other slurs, and intimidated her, according to theBangor Daily News.
