A federal appeals court is hearing arguments the case of a transgender man who sued a Virginia school board after he was barred as a student from using the boys’ bathrooms at his high school.
The Associated Press
David Corrigan, a lawyer for the school board, said school officials treated Grimm with respect after he began transitioning from female to male during high school, accommodating his request to use male pronouns and to be called by his new name. But Corrigan argued that the law protects against discrimination based on sex, not gender identity. Corrigan said that because Grimm had not undergone sex-reassignment surgery and still had female genitalia, the board’s position was that he remained anatomically a female.
The hearing was the latest step in a yearslong legal battle. Grimm’s lawsuit was supposed to be heard by the U.S. Supreme Court. But the high court hearing was canceled after President Donald Trump rescinded a directive issued during the administration of his predecessor, Barack Obama, that students can choose bathrooms corresponding with their gender identity.
