Kids teased me about my weight, my clothes and my hair, which I began to wear straightened in an attempt to fit in, but which never seemed comfortable on top of my head (I was the girl with the lopsided "mushroom," or the frizzy edges that I sweated out during gym class).

If taken seriously, as the letters must be because of the threat of loss of federal funding, this means a high school or middle school could not prevent a group of boys from using the same locker room as the girls in their gym class if the boys suddenly decided one day to profess a female gender identity.
