POWAY — A transgender student who changes in a boys' locker room at Rancho Bernardo High School has triggered a dispute over a two-year-old state law that seeks to accommodate such students.

The Poway Unified School District board meeting was packed Tuesday night with people raising a broad array of questions about student rights.

Holly Franz, one of the speakers at the meeting, said she learned when the semester resumed three weeks ago that a student who was born female but identifies as male was changing in the locker room.

I'm kind of surprised the ftm are raising the same ire as the mtf were.  I kind of expected them to get a free pass on this.
