I've been threatened...

The school toke my mom's said, they say if I wear a dress tomorrow I can get in trouble for breaking school violations...

did the school say this to you face 2 face on the phone or is it what your mother told you they said?

if you can go there wearing make up and girly jeans then do it.

On the phone with my mom, I just find this:

Porblem 6: Often students are required to wear clothing that is inconsistent with their gender identity. For instance, Pat Doe, a male to female transgender student was told that she could not wear girl's clothes. Every single day, first thing in the morning, she had to go to the principal's office, where the principal would look at her and decide if she was dressed enough like a boy.  This student brought a suit against the school, a suit which she won.

School District can enforce reasonable student dress codes for the purposes of maintaining a safe and orderly school environment, and ensuring that the school can fulfill its educational mission.  However, All School District employees must respect the right of a student to dress in accordance with the student's gender identity. Further, students should not have to chose between male and female clothing. Some students are most comfortable in and most themselves in clothing that is not clearly male or female or a combination of the two.

they might also told her that a green and yellow monster with bunny teeth tiger ears and elephants feet will eat you if you went to school wearing a dress.

I'll suggest you find out by yourself and see if school make you any remark about this. now i repeat again and again worry more about t-blocker or hormone even if you need to make the compromise of not wearing the dress. Once the poison called testosterone make you more masculine or grow a beard i am not  you'll feel like wearing a dress.

The school toke my mom's said, they say if I wear a dress tomorrow I can get in trouble for breaking school violations...Wearing a dress isn't breaking school violations, If so half the girls would be in trouble then! Does anyone know any Transgendered Rights people I can call about this?

Bastards... *hug* .



Unrelated but I thought I'd say:

Just remember you're going to be more successful and bigger than them when you overcome them. See them? Use them as an example to completely stray away from and be nothing like. Painful, yes, but at least you know what NOT to be, ever. You need to remember that, hopefully one day, you'll take pride in the fact that you thought about 100 years ahead of those people... And that a lot of people who later think further ahead will be almost poseurs.

I called the Transgendered Law Center and talked to one of them and left a message. Like I said above...There is laws against people who force students to wear certain clothes.

LA operates a LGBT academy out of Centeral HS, perhaps you could go there.

To be honest I'm amazed those even exist. REALLY? Wow. I'm not being sarcastic, I just took laws to be far stupider than that. Be careful and be wise. There are always amendments and loopholes specifically designed to screw you. Booby traps...

California has some pretty liberal laws, getting them enforced locally however is a different deal sometimes.

What with local and federal government both contradicting and claiming to have jurisdiction and authority... Suck a BAD set up. Like the DEA coming in going, "LOL NO WEED FOR YOU!! WE'RE HERE TO BE JERKS!!!" And the Depository going, "WTF mang?!"

By the current laws, Gay and Lesbian people have less rights (Though it's sad!), Transgendered people have more rights and in California, they are wishy-washy but when you deny someone their rights, California get's mad.

California should just be two states... The gated, stupid cracker communities, and the more FUN ones.

Well... Maybe that would be bad... But sometimes I wish things, though unproductive. T____T

[tekla]

Though there are some areas of the Greater LA region that have some gated communities, they remain more of an East Coast deal, largely due to fire and police regulations.

[Inphyy]

It's sad that I have to get a law center onto my school, for saying someone will get in trouble for wearing a dress at school.

It would be a terrible tragedy if those plastic fences oozed and melted all over the ground... Wouldn't it? Or is there some law loophole that makes arson by electromagnetic beam not illegal D: ? Like getting a metallic meteor and just michael bay style crashing it all over the place?

Sorry... Imagination getting the best of me.

[tekla]

Well the rather unique ruling in Cali is that gated communities are not longer public, and public services, like police, fire and sewers can charge a premium for giving such services. That has slowed the development of such places, which was kind of a 90s deal to begin with.

[Inphyy]

I hope they return the message by tomorrow...Cause what am I going to do if they don't call back and I have to go to school?! ~_~

If I go to school in a dress I am "violating" a rule...Even though girls wear dresses; They might punish me. But I guess if they do--That's more proof when I sue their butt! Or at-least get a written law from a judge or someone in the law, that way they can't violate my right to wear what I want.

It's very, very, very, very hard - almost impossible - for a minor to sue a school district if their parents are not on board.

What do you mean?

[tekla]

I mean, except in very rare circumstances, a minor by themselves can not sue in a court of law - their parent(s) have to sue in their name for them.  Moreover, public officials, and school people are just that, are typically exempt (again, except in very rare circumstances) from being sued for doing their job.

But if they violate the laws and break someones basic rights...Then you have a problem? And in-case of this; Since my mom is trying to get help from them--The court, I hope will understand and let me fight on my own.
