Wow... perhaps there are some more pressing issues to the state of South Dakota other than looking in the pants of transgender student athletes? I might be wrong though. This guy is a scumbag.
While there is obviously some... WTF here... there's some pieces missing to this puzzle, so I can't exactly give a solid response. What I can say solidly is, checking genitals outside of a doctor's context, is kind of pushing it.
Gee, it sure is a good thing that there is no variance among boys and girls as they begin to grow. I mean, all boys are 6'0, 180lbs, and like football, right?....right? I wonder, if someone slapped "millionaire" on my birth certificate, does that mean the government must insure I always have a million dollars?
And who would be examining the genitals of children? The coaches? Doctors? The senator himself? Would it be a male or female examiner, since apparently you can't know the gender of the child until you pull down their pants? Will we trust the reports of just one examiner, or will there need to be a judgement board present? How will the genitals be denoted in the student's file? With an M or an F? Photographic evidence? What if the genitals are ambiguous? Will judgments be made based on purely visual assessment in this case or will the examiner need to handle the kids' genitals? What counts as gender reassignment surgery? Are examiners allowed to make judgments on how convincing a surgery job is? When will examinations be held? At the door of tryouts? Sign ups? After they make the team? Before each game? This is stupid.
Lets just give him a medal and send him on his way. Now, apparently the government has nothing more important to do, their only worry is to make laws giving them the right to peek down the pants of your children. Good going, America.
NO. JUST NO. I'm pretty sure that breaks at least two laws protecting students from that type of harassment.
NO. Fucking bullshit. I had no idea about the Indiana law though. I live in Indiana, and that is really not cool.
That not good enough we must send these news articles to legislation along with sex toys and pictures of us vandalizing their houses and peeing in their food, we must also start fires in their trashcan. It will not accomplish much but it will make us feel better.
This guy's a flipping idiot. Focus more on poverty or something instead of focusing on children's(or anybody's) genitals, creep.
