At the same time, my role is to teach academic standards and facilitate healthy development which means I don’t engage in medical or identity counseling. I strive to be consistent and transparent. I treat every student with dignity while maintaining the factual integrity of the curriculum. In doing so, we balance compassion with clarity, ensuring no child feels marginalized or misled.

All I’m saying is that kids are still developing, and it’s not my place to push identity, it’s my job to teach, listen, and guide. I don’t debate biology, and at the same time, I don’t shame anyone either. I just try to be honest and consistent while giving kids room to grow without confusion or pressure.

Would you be opposed to a transgender chick joining Phi Beta Sigma?

Too many people are willing to simplify biology to fit their ideologies, ignoring the complex nature of sex and gender. I trust my sisters, and I fully embrace any transwoman who comes into our sisterhood. Unlike most negative commenters, I know and love transpeople and have no interest in becoming the genitalia police. Masculine-looking ciswomen have been assaulted by the genitalia police; maybe people should worry less about other people who are just trying to use the bathroom.

Call me dumb but wtf is a ciswoman?
