On orders from Barack Obama's Department of Justice, officials with the University of Arkansas at Fort Smith have given permission for a 38-year-old man to use the women's restrooms on campus.

The report comes from Campus Reform.org, which explained that the individual also is seeking to have someone pay for a sex reassignment surgery to change from male to female.

Already living as a female, the individual, identified in the report as Jennifer Braly, started using women's restrooms on campus, but quickly was the subject of complaints from women who saw him there.

EXCLUSIVE: Obama's DOJ Forces University to Allow 38 Year Old Male To Access Women's Restrooms

Jennifer Braly, the student who filed the complaint, calls himself "transgender" with a "gender identity disorder." Braly, however, remains anatomically a man and is currently raising money online for Sex Reassignment Surgery (SRS).

Braly filed the complaint with the DOJ after the university initially told him to use the campus's several gender-neutral bathrooms instead of the women's restrooms.

"Some saw me using the women' public restrooms and complained," explained Braly in her online appeal for donations for surgery. "One problem to this is there are not unisex bathrooms in every building. Especially the two main buildings where most of my classes are, so I have to go to a completely different building to use the restroom."

Both of those articles are terribly biased against Jen Braly, and the comment sections reflect it. I honestly won't be surprised if she's harmed in the fallout, considering one is a blog for her own school.
