Update
Dems will take control of Perkiomen Valley School Board with their complete Election Day Sweep.
Although, as yet, no persons with penises have been positively identified as having entered a girls’ bathroom in any of the Perkiomen Valley schools, the Republicans on the School Board there voted on Monday night (October 2) to pass a motion banning those persons (with penises) from using the girls’ rooms. The same measure bans persons with vaginas from using the boys’ rooms. All the Democrats on the board voted against the motion.
The Republicans felt it was necessary to act proactively in case any individuals were EVEN THINKING ABOUT using bathroom facilities designated for persons with sexual organs different from what is designated for any particular bathroom.

The closest anyone has come to a sighting of male genitalia in a Perkiomen Valley School girls’ room was a high school freshman who “wasn’t positive but was pretty sure a male entered the bathroom while she was in there.”
What can’t be ruled out, in fact, might even be likely, is that what the girl saw in the bathroom was another girl – dressed like a boy. One of the Democratic board members noted that the Republican motion would require girls dressed like boys to use the girls’ bathroom. In which case, the girl who was pretty sure she saw a male in the bathroom might still be afraid to use that bathroom unless she was completely confident that the measure designed to protect the girls was being fully complied with.
Not all (any?) of the details of the plans to ensure that the Girls’ Rooms in the Perkioman Valley Schools will henceforth (if they are not already) be penis-free have been finalized. Nonetheless, the motion carried along party lines by a 5-4 vote.
