The College Fix Associate Editor Jennifer Kabbany has an exclusive report on a California school that is ignoring the protests of female students to appeal to a male student with gender identification issues.

One of the largest public charter high schools in the nation allows a boy who identifies as female to use the girls locker room and bathrooms – despite protests from a female student who says she feels uncomfortable and vulnerable by his presence.

What’s more, the female student – who just finished her sophomore year at the Los Angeles-based Granada Hills Charter High School – claims the boy in question harassed her, touched her hair, stared strangely at her, and also peeked at girls over the stalls while they used the toilet.

“It’s amazing to me that a public school who is responsible to protect the rights of all students will blatantly ignore the Constitutional right to privacy of young female students within the locker rooms and restrooms of the school,” Robert Tyler, the girl’s attorney, told The College Fix.

Tyler, who heads up the Southern California-based conservative public interest law firm Advocates for Faith & Freedom, sent a letter to the school late last month asking them to provide alternate locker room facilities for the male student who identifies as female. But attorneys for the school, in a June 4 letter to Tyler, denied the request.

“The charter school provides a safe environment, free from discrimination and harassment for all of its students,” stated the letter to Tyler from the school’s attorneys, the law offices of Young, Minney & Corr., LLP. “From our initial review of this matter, we are confident that the evidence will demonstrate that any issues and incidents between the students were mutual, and your client was not victimized in the manner described in your letter.”

..“Numerous females on your campus have expressed serious concerns over their privacy and safety as a result of (his) conduct, and are left vulnerable to unlawful harassment,” Tyler stated. “The personal dignity and privacy of all females within the Granada Hills Charter High School is infringed as a result of one student’s desire to identify as a female when he is biologically a male.”“It is astonishing that the Constitutional rights of hundreds of female students are ignored for the sake of the statutory right of one student to claim the identity of the opposite sex. This injustice cannot be tolerated.”
