Poll question: Should schools bar students from dressing in gender inappropriate clothing?

Currently at 47% yes, 51% no, 2% undecided

The school district is trying to prevent discrimination and bullying of trans* and gender non-conforming kids in schools by preventing them from “cross-gender dressing” (their words, not mine) in the first place. The ban also hopes to address the ‘distracting problem’ of having trans*, genderqueer, and other gender non-conforming students in classes that is apparently disrupting other students’ learning.

    some of the comments are oddly irrelevant as people are confusing actual “inappropriate” wear with gender specific wear
