This is why you can't make restrooms free-for-alls. They compromise the safety and privacy of girls and women.
"We had an incident last week to where some boys entered the girls' bathroom, and a girl kneed a boy, feeling threatened. They were blocking her way. And she was suspended from school, because she used too much force," Wilson said.
According to Wilson, the boys were in the bathroom due to "some kind of protest," but she believes it shouldn't matter.
"If you ever feel threatened, for your safety, whatever force you think you have to go give, I will stand by you and so will your community, and not for those boys who were where they didn't belong," Wilson said.
Due to the use of force, Wilson said the girl was suspended, and missed her prom, while the boys were allowed to attend.
The Fairbanks North Star Borough School District said in a statement that it cannot comment on any specific investigation or disciplinary action, but went on to say that the district's Title IX specialist has conducted an investigation.
The District also said multiple students faced disciplinary action.
And there is more. There was another girl at the same school who deludes herself into thinking she was a boy, and she did a Snapchat of her being in the boys' room. Apparently, the boys were enraged, and thus they tried the same damned thing to the girls' room. That is when the other girl kicked one of them in the nuts.
The story has been misreported or underreported by the media.
More is here:
It all went down at North Pole High School in North Pole, Alaska - a small, Christmas-loving city just southeast of Fairbanks - on the morning of April 4. The Snap at issue: a student transitioning from female to male posted a selfie from the boys' bathroom.
Some boys at the high school who saw the selfie, however, were angry, and decided they would walk into the girls' bathroom to take their own Snapchat selfie "as a form of protest," Fairbanks North Star Borough School District Superintendent Karen Gaborik told The Washington Post.
But they would not get far.
The first boy to enter the girls' room was met by a girl ― who kneed him in the groin. With that, the "protest" was over.
THAT girls is heroic. The school needs to drop the expulsion.
This trans shit is nothing but a disaster.

Obituary: Actress Bibi Andersson, 83, known for her roles in overrated Ingmar Bergman films, has reportedly died. She died yesterday:
Born in Stockholm on Nov. 11, 1935, as Berit Elisabet Andersson, she appeared in more than 90 films, 13 of them directed by Bergman.
They first met in 1951 when Bergman directed a series of soap commercials featuring Andersson, according to the institute.
Andersson's career expanded into major productions overseas in the 1970s. She appeared in movies by directors such as John Huston and Robert Altman and starred alongside actors including Paul Newman, Sidney Poitier and Steve McQueen.
She then turned to directing plays in Stockholm before suffering a stroke in 2009 and disappearing from the limelight.

Another obituary to note: Actress Georgia Engel, 70, known for her role as the wife of the idiot Ted Baxter (played by Ted Knight) on The Mary Tyler Moore Show, has died. She died Friday.
The obit notes that since Engel was a Christian Scientist, she did not consult doctors.
Although she was best known from television, Ms. Engel began her career onstage, reaching Broadway in 1969 as a replacement player near the end of the run of “Hello, Dolly!” She enjoyed a late-career resurgence in the theater, including a leading role last year in “Half Time,” a musical staged at the Paper Mill Playhouse in New Jersey about 60-and-older dancers who perform at halftime of professional basketball games._____
Ben Brantley, reviewing that show in The New York Times, noted the echoes of Ms. Engel’s “Mary Tyler Moore” breakthrough in her performance.
“Here she is, some 40 years later and 69 years old, deploying that same perplexed stare and breathy little-girl voice,” he wrote. “And she totally lights up the stage, while bringing bright new inflections to song and dance moves inspired by Biggie Smalls, Tupac Shakur and Run-DMC. I hadn’t been conscious that I was missing Ms. Engel, but evidently I was.”
