(WLUK) An investigation was launched into three middle school students in Wisconsin accused of calling classmates by their wrong pronouns. The school district has filed a Title IX complaint against the Kiel Middle School students, accusing them of sexual harassment for using incorrect pronouns when addressing another student. Rabidouxs 13-year-old son Braden is one of the three eighth-grade Kiel Middle School students accused of sexual harassment something she disputes. (The investigating principal) said hes being allegedly charged with sexual harassment for not using proper pronouns, said Rabidoux. I thought it wasnt real! I thought this has got to be a gag, a joke one has nothing to do with the other. According to the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty (WILL), now defending the accused students, in March, one of their peers announced the pronouns they'd prefer to be addressed as they/them. One of the alleged incidents Braden and the others were supposedly involved in happened in late April. She had been screaming at one of Bradens friends to use proper pronouns, calling him profanity, and this friend is very soft-spoken, and kind of just sunk down into his chair, Rabidoux explained. Braden finally came up, defending him, saying He doesnt have to use proper pronouns, its his constitutional right to not use, you cant make him say things. Some say this could show Rabidoux and her son are against the LGBTQ + community. Not at all. Not at all! said Rabidoux. My children have been raised to love everybody equally. Shortly after finding out her son was being investigated, Rabidoux reached out to WILL. WILL says the misuse of pronouns is not a part of the school districts policy or Title IX. The charge against students for sexual harassment is an extreme abuse of the Title IX process, said Berg. Its totally inappropriate and is totally being mishandled by the school district. WLUK News reached out to the Kiel School District. It provided a statement, saying: The KASD prohibits all forms of bullying and harassment in accordance with all laws, including Title IX It goes on to say that it will continue to support ALL students regardless of sex (including transgender status, change of sex or gender identity) Post Comment Private Reply Ignore Thread Top Page Up Full Thread Page Down Bottom/Latest Begin Trace Mode for Comment # 1.

I sort of wish this had been around when I was in High School. I was bullied by several guys. But you know what? All of them are dead now. I guess I will not see them at our 50th reunion this fall. ;)
