This week my colleague, Elise, who is transgender, was abused by peers and school administrators alike. She was threatened with criminal prosecution for using the ladies. We want more people to be aware of the atrocities transgender students in Singapore are facing. PLEASE RT.
Here are some redacted chat logs, documenting bullying by peers, and also by staff who "will still treat her as a male student." This isn't acceptable in any academic institution. If you're an academic, help us by spreading the word in your institution and circles. PLEASE RT. ImageImageImageImage
This case is NOT an isolated case. The past month, we had the case of Ashlee, who was not allowed to physically attend school because of her presentation, despite efforts to negotiate with staff. reddit.com/r/SGExams/comm… This atrocity MUST STOP. Again, #FixSchoolsNotStudents
