Court Rejects Lawsuit by Sorority Members Against Sorority for Admitting Transgender Member

The sorority, the court held, had a First Amendment freedom of expressive association right to choose which students to admit (logic that suggests that a sorority would equally be free to exclude transgender members).

Basically they lost because the courts deemed it not their right to decide what private organisations decide. So if the sorority decide that transwomen can be members, the court cannot overrule that.

Sadly makes sense. Question is if this now means women have to force the sorority to change their mind and exclude them or leave.

So young women at university have no right to same sex personal space. I feel so sorry for those young women, they've been bullied and gas lit and the male interloper by all accounts behaved very unpleasantly.

Some of the stuff I've read is jaw-dropping. "Many institutions now accept a definition of woman that includes transgender women." Why? Who did they ask? I don't include men, with or without cosmetic surgery, in my definition of woman.

Apparently that's bigoted
