RICHMOND, Va. – Lawyers for transgender teen Gavin Grimm have set aside part of his case against the Gloucester County Public Schools . After spending years fighting all the way to the Supreme Court, Grimm’s lawyers filed to drop the appeal seeking an immediate end to the district's bathroom policy . This comes after judges with the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond ruled that the 18-year-old may not be able to pursue the case anymore since he graduated high school in June. The ACLU said Grimm's decision now clears the way for them to litigate his case based on Title IX discrimination . Grimm was born a female, but has identified as male since his freshman year in high school. According to court documents, Grimm used the boys’ restrooms at the school for approximately seven weeks without incident. However, after some adults in the community complained, the Gloucester County School Board overruled its administrators and enacted a new policy prohibiting boys and g...

'Bathroom Bill' on agenda for Special Session in Texas. AUSTIN - With three days left in the Texas Legislature Special Session , Texans, organizations, and lawmakers are continuing to speak out on the bathroom bill.  The two bills filed during the Special Session related to bathroom privacy are Senate Bill 3 (SB3) and House Bill 46 (HB46). SB3 requires people in state, city and county buildings and public and charter schools use multiple occupancy bathrooms , locker rooms and showers according to the sex on their birth certificate or state- issued identification card or CHL. HB46 states cities , counties and school districts can't create and enforce their own policies regarding the use of multiple occupancy restrooms , showers and locker rooms. It makes no mention of gender or sex.   Several civil rights groups gathered at the Capitol Monday to deliver to the Governor, Lieutenant Governor and Speaker of the House a list of signatures from more than 50,000 Texans who...

Larry covered the initial marching orders as they were handed down from the White House this week. With no consultation from either the legislative or judicial branches, Barack Obama told all of the schools in America that they needed to ignore established genetic science and age old standards of privacy to allow students to pick their own gender and use whichever bathrooms, locker rooms and showers they feel best suit them. Failing to do so would be met with cutting off their federal education funding regardless of need or scholastic performance. Needless to say, plenty of school districts were less than thrilled. One school system in Texas immediately informed the White House that the mandate was heading directly into the trash. “I got news for President Barack Obama ,” Port Neches-Groves (Texas) Superintendent Rodney Cavness told 12News . “He ain’t my President and he can’t tell me what to do. That letter is going straight to the paper shredder . I have 5 daughters myself and I...

PIERRE | The lone South Dakota Democrat running for governor said Friday that measures restricting which facilities transgender students can use at school amount to "a solution in search of a problem." Sen. Billie Sutton opposed a so- called bathroom bill when it was proposed during the 2016 legislative session. He said in a statement to The Associated Press that local schools have been handling the issue in the best way for their students, a view shared by term- limited Republican Gov . Dennis Daugaard but one that diverges from the top two Republicans vying to replace him. Sutton pointed to the "catastrophic" economic consequences of passing such a measure. A similar law in North Carolina sparked national uproar and costly boycotts before lawmakers rolled much of it back. " South Dakota prides itself on common sense, and laws like this are a solution in search of a problem," the Burke legislator said in the statement. A key conservative group , Fam...

The following is from Adam O'Riordan’s short story collection , The Burning Ground. The Burning Ground is a collection of eight stories about men haunted by their past: from a painter tormented by memories of a lover to a father trying to rekindle a relationship with his son. Adam O’Riordan’s poetry collection In the Flesh won the Somerset Maugham Award , awarded to the best writer under the age of 35. He is an academic director at Manchester Metropolitan University . Alannah would always come at two o’clock as she had on her first visit. But they never talked about how they might exist outside of the confines of the studio. Then at Easter a fortnight passed without her visiting. He had delayed his own trip to see his sister in Harrogate. By the third week, when two o’clock came he was pacing the studio, snapping the slats in the battered brushed-metal blind, peering down on to the parked cars on the street below. He had first met Alannah and her husband at the same party. He had...
