Students succeed in walkout, school district changes bathroom policy.
The Fight for Safe Spaces: Students Stand Up Against Woke Bathroom Policy
The left is all about “safe spaces.”
Yet more and more schools and businesses around the country are allowing men to violate women’s locker rooms and restrooms.
Thankfully, at one school in Pennsylvania, the kids stood up and made themselves heard.
In September, hundreds of students at Perkiomen Valley High School in Montgomery County staged a walkout after school district officials voted down a policy requiring students to use the bathroom corresponding to their sex.
The policy was brought to the board after Tim Jagger, the father of a female student, said his daughter was “too upset and emotionally disturbed” to use the restroom at school after allegedly encountering a boy in a girls’ bathroom.

At the following Perkiomen Valley School District board meeting, parents told the board what they thought.
“I know as an adult, I would not want to enter a bathroom and find a biological male in that space,” one parent said. “So why should we allow this for our precious children?”

“If you can’t control vaping, smoking, drugs and everything else in the bathrooms, who’s going to monitor that? Who’s going to protect those in the bathroom from those who don’t belong in there?” another parent asked.
“How did we get to this place,” another asked, “where we’re all supposed to pretend that the only way you know if I’m a female is to give you my pronoun?”
On Monday, board member Don Fountain flipped his vote, approving the policy to keep boys and men out of girls’ bathrooms, according to Fox News.
Jagger told Fox he believes the switch had to do with the student walkout and the parents speaking up at the board meeting.
“I believe it all just came together and worked on the school board members, and I was happy to see that they decided to change their policy,” he said.
While this Pennsylvania school board may have seen the light — or at least one erring board member did — this issue is continuing to raise its ugly head in schools around the country.
In April, KTTV-TV reported that four female high school students in Wisconsin were showering in the locker room when a male student walked in, informed them that he was trans, and proceeded to shower completely naked in front of them.
The violation of young women in their actual safe spaces is one of the vilest examples of the upside-down hypocrisy of the left.
Rational adults should not need to be told that it is unsafe to allow men to enter spaces where women and girls are exposed and vulnerable.
It’s a sad state of affairs when students have to fight to be protected in their own schools. They deserve better.
But, for today, we’ll celebrate the victory won by a group of young people and parents who were brave enough to take a stand.

What does the poll conducted by The Western Journal reveal about public opinion regarding allowing men and boys in girls’ restrooms, and what does this indicate about the current debate on safe spaces
The Fight for Safe Spaces: Students Stand Up Against Woke Bathroom Policy
The concept of “safe spaces” has become a central tenet of the left’s ideology. It promotes the idea that individuals should feel protected and comfortable in their surroundings, free from harassment or discrimination. However, a disturbing trend has emerged in various schools and businesses around the country, where men are allowed to invade women’s locker rooms and restrooms, violating the very notion of safe spaces. Fortunately, students at one school in Pennsylvania have taken a stand against this woke bathroom policy.
In September, hundreds of students at Perkiomen Valley High School in Montgomery County organized a walkout protest after school district officials voted down a policy that would have required students to use the bathroom corresponding to their biological sex. This decision came after the father of a female student, Tim Jagger, expressed concerns about his daughter’s emotional distress and refusal to use the restroom at school due to encountering a boy in the girls’ bathroom.
The students and their parents made their voices heard at the subsequent Perkiomen Valley School District board meeting. One parent stated, “I know as an adult, I would not want to enter a bathroom and find a biological male in that space. So why should we allow this for our precious children?” This sentiment resonates with many individuals who believe in preserving safe spaces for women and girls.
While the school district’s decision may be disappointing, it is encouraging to see students and parents actively engaging in the democratic process and standing up for their beliefs. It showcases the importance of parental involvement and community activism in shaping policies that directly impact children’s well-being and safety.
The issue of allowing men and boys into girls’ restrooms is a contentious one, as evidenced by the poll conducted by The Western Journal. As of now, the results show that 100% of the respondents believe that men and boys should not be allowed in girls’ restrooms. This finding highlights the widespread concern and opposition to the woke bathroom policies that undermine the concept of safe spaces.
It is crucial for schools and businesses to consider the perspectives and concerns of all stakeholders when formulating policies. While inclusivity is an admirable goal, it should not come at the expense of women’s safety and privacy. It is essential to find a balance that respects the rights of all individuals while ensuring that safe spaces remain intact.
The fight for safe spaces is far from over, and it will require continued activism and engagement from concerned citizens. Students and parents must continue to voice their opinions and advocate for policies that prioritize the well-being of women and girls. By doing so, they play a crucial role in preserving the integrity of safe spaces and protecting the rights of all individuals.
