The Orange County Public Schools system in Florida has announced guidance banning trans students from bathrooms and the use of nicknames.

    I imagine enforcement would be selective, so Thomas can be Tom and Michael can be Mike, but some cis kids will still get caught in it. (Like, I knew a girl whose legal name was Roberta and that was shortened to Bobbie. She wasn’t trans, her nickname was just usually given to boys rather than girls.)

      Not a law talking guy, I thought that one of the constantly brought up issues in civil rights cases is selective enforcement of rules. Schools allowed hats but suddenly decided a turban wasn’t allowed for example.
