Colorado School Board Member: Trans Students Should be Castrated

A school board member from Colorado made headlines Monday after she said that transgender students should be castrated if they want to use the bathrooms that fit their gender identity, Colorado’s CBS-affiliated station KREX-TV reports.

Delta County School Board member Katherine Svenson’s controversial comments made during an October meeting, were recorded by KREX.

"I would like to pass out something that shows people what is going on in the rest of the country," Svenson said. "Massachusetts and California have passed laws relating to calling a student, irrespective of his biological gender, letting him perform as the gender he thinks he is, or she is. I just want to emphasize: not in this district. Not until the plumbing’s changed. There would have to be castration in order to pass something like that around here." Full story here!
