Lawsuits have been filed in various jurisdictions challenging policies that seek to respect requests by transgender students to not out them to their parents.
Do you think we might finally see support from Thomas against the conservative view on Loving or do you think he’s looking for a “pocket divorce” from his wife? “I’m sorry honey, our marriage isn’t Constitutional anymore.”
I suspect they will clarify the decision to specifically exclude application of it to same-sex relationships, finding that “equal protection” cannot include classes created by “personal choice” such as sexual orientation or gender identity.
You know… Standard conservative bigotry. The outright racism and re-segregation happens a couple years later, I predict.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: conservatives who think that sexual orientation or gender identity are choices think that because they themselves have chosen to remain in the closet.
