Boy wore a shirt to school that said "there are only two genders." School censored him. He sued (free speech). Ended up at federal 1st Circuit.

Lawyer for school: This message that there is just two genders is vile, and it says to someone who is nonbinary, You do not exist.

Judge David Barron asked the school's lawyer, What if the shirt said "male is not a gender"?

School lawyer: The administrators would have to think, well, is that attacking a core identity? Probably not. Male is not a gender.

Boy's lawyer argued the school was not inclusive to him when it called his views hateful. Judge Barron again:

"No one was saying HIS gender didn't exist!"

 The First Circuit ruled for the censorious school. The boy is seeking Supreme Court review.

The case is LM v. Town of Middleborough.

"Male is not a gender" comes up around 35:00-:10, yes I replayed the tape on that one.

 I'm working on a post about LM and other 1st Circuit trans decisions. These New England judges are blazing a trail of inclusivity through the 1st amendment.

In the 1970s doctors required male transsexuals to sign on for castration at the outset of transitioning because they were worried about the combination of male-level T and female-level E causing cancer.

 It's referenced in this 1976 court case, for example.

 The early standards of care (1979- 98) did not reference cancer risk.

In the 90s, MTF activists demanded that gender doctors "feminize" them even if they did not seek castration. digitaltransgenderarchive.net/files/pk02c974p
