Guidance Document Change: The Model Policies for the Treatment of Transgender Students in Virginia’s Public Schools guidance document was developed in response to House Bill 145 and Senate Bill 161, enacted by the 2020 Virginia General Assembly, which directed the Virginia Department of Education to develop and make available to each school board model policies concerning the treatment of transgender students in public elementary and secondary schools. These guidelines address common issues regarding transgender students in accordance with evidence-based best practices and include information, guidance, procedures, and standards relating to: compliance with applicable nondiscrimination laws; maintenance of a safe and supportive learning environment free from discrimination and harassment for all students; prevention of and response to bullying and harassment; maintenance of student records; identification of students; protection of student privacy and the confidentiality of sensitive information; enforcement of sex-based dress codes; and student participation in sex-specific school activities, events, and use of school facilities.

Science is 2 genders XX and XY Chromosomes
 

I have 3 school aged children.  They will not be returning to a government school if this policy is implemented.  Further, I demand my tax dollars are returned to me to educate my children in an institution that understands science.  the Virginia government apparently does not.  Let me explain.

Science indicates by study of DNA and in particular, the chromosomes that are made up by it.  There are two, XX and XY.  The clothes some wear nor genital mutilation constitute a change to the chromosomes.  Therefore, "transgender" individuals do not exist in the human population.  I understand that this situation may exist in some reptiles and/or amphibians.  However, I know of no mammals, including humans where this has been observed or verified.

So in summary, my child will never attend a government institution where XX and XY individuals are allowed to comingle in compromising situations such as bathrooms or locker rooms.

Moreover, if this legislation is enacted I will make it my mission in life to organize similarly concerned parents to demand an educational voucher program be implemented in Virginia.  Further, I will contribute to the any candidate that opposes an incumbent taht supports this FAKE SCIENCE.

Best Regards,

Bulldog
