Students: Transgender Woman Can't Be Diversity Officer Because She's a White Man Now | National Review Online

A student who was born female felt perfectly comfortable identifying as a man at Wellesley College — until people said he shouldn’t be class diversity officer because he is now a white male.

Timothy Boatwright was born a girl, and checked off the “female” box when applying to the Massachusetts all-women’s school, according to an article in the New York Times. But when he got there, he introduced himself as a “masculine-of-center genderqueer” person named “Timothy” (the name he picked for himself) and asked them to use male pronouns when referring to him.

And, by all accounts, Boatwright felt welcome on campus — until the day he announced that he wanted to run for the school’s office of multicultural affairs coordinator, whose job is to promote a “culture of diversity” on campus.

But some students thought that allowing Boatwright to have the position would just perpetuate patriarchy. They were so opposed, in fact, that when the other three candidates (all women of color) dropped out, they started an anonymous Facebook campaign encouraging people not to vote at all to keep him from winning the position.

“I thought he’d do a perfectly fine job, but it just felt inappropriate to have a white man there,” the student behind the so-called “Campaign to Abstain” said.

“It’s not just about that position either,” the student added. “Having men in elected leadership positions undermines the idea of this being a place where women are the leaders.”

Boatwright told the Times that his high-school friends knew he was transgender, but he identified himself as female on the application to Wellesley because he didn’t want his mom to know. Of course, Wellesley is also a female school, and “it seemed awkward to write an application essay for a women’s college on why you were not a woman,” he said.

Cliffs notes: Woman is accepted to all-female school. Then decides to be a man, shows up for school as a man, and demands they accommodate her...him...it...whatever. Enters race to be elected school diversity officer. Students complain that they can't have equality because they think it's inappropriate that a white "man" could be a leader. The other candidates (all black women) drop out of the race in protest, leaving the new guy/girl/person to win the election by a sweep.

I'm not sure who is most screwed up in this story.

Is this a new soap opera?

Sounds like a story from the onion, unfortunately, I believe it.

ALL of them!!!

And only the she/he is a man because she stood up to those FKing wusses who created an anonymous FB to hide behind. Pathetic!

 

[jrbfishn]

Just ludicrous enough I could believe it.

Reminded of a hymn.
"and I can't feel at home in this world anymore".

Next time, put the cliff notes first please.


Talk about a fucked up place.

Serves them right. All of them.

No one sees the additional irony that all of the other candidates were black women?

Go "diversity"!

Is that more ironic than everyone dropping out and then saying to not vote for the only candidate left? Why not just run against her? try and find someone more diverse than the only trans gender male that used to be a female on that campus. What's the trans male to black female ratio? Does this mean the white male is definitely the minority?

New progressive dictionary:
Diversity, noun.
Not white.

 

[CrazedJava]

Does this mean the white male is definitely the minority?

Yes, whether they were transgender or not.

Go "diversity"!

Possibly the worst waste of space liberal feminist garbage spewing fat racist prof I ever had. And that was at A&M. Tenure is stupid.

I think it must be a really slow news day. Any Ebola going on?

Yeah I made another thread about that.

Working at a Liberal Arts college, this is the cesspool I tiptoe around every day. Diversity Officer/Dean almost has to be held by an African-American to "count".
