Anyone with any advice?

Make a joke about it. Walk into the dorm everyday and say, "Hey ******, how was your day?" "That outfit doesn't match". "Is that monkey pox?"

Constantly be listening to conservative radio. Just make it's life hate you.

Or just start sleeping like a bum in the hallways until the school newspaper makes a story out of it. Purchase a cot and make a spectacle of it.


ETA: The school didn't have the nutts to put it in the girl's dorm.

Is this story true. If so, some TAMU administrators need to resign. Dumb, dumb, dumb.

Because I don't send my kid to an expensive school for their experience to be mandated that they live with Buffalo Bill.

Yes it's true. Kid doesn't want to create waves just want to change roommates
A&M can't do a thing without lawsuits from the feds and the left

I see but I would not care. Make them sue. For goodness sake is there any honor or leadership left?

I must say, I am pleasantly surprised that A&M isn't trying to house this guy in a woman's dorm. Hopefully that policy holds up.

That said, living with any leftist, especially a mentally ill leftist (is that redundant) is extremely risky for any college kid. The amount of political power they wield combined with the inherent vindictive neurosis of leftism makes it highly likely they'll cause huge problems for the other kid in the dorm. I'd suggest he get out any way he can.

And no one these days should be delusional enough to think that going potluck on roommates is a good idea.

Makes this a legal on what grounds? "I don't like that my roommate wears feminine clothes and make up"?

Why should any student be forced to habitate with another person with a mental illness in order to receive an education?

Why is conservatism prosecuted yet (obvious) mental illnesses are celebrated?

---

Abogado, you're failing to understand that no one is forcing OP's starchild to habitate with anyone else. The university isn't requiring juniors to live on campus.

Maybe he should learn some fiscal responsibility so he can live off campus, or better yet - gasp - get a job?! :0

---

Now reverse that

Reverse it? Sincerely doubt the prospective roommate cares much about the child in question.. since they're still planning to room there.

Maybe OPs son should get some time in Bonfire and toughen up that skin.

[This is your thread but that does not mean that you get to post in a manner that we are trying to clean up on this forum. -Staff]

I'm willing to bet that who ever doesn't have a problem with this on this board also doesn't have children.

Refuse payment. Hire a lawyer. Make it explicitly known to the mentally ill roommate that you will not be indulging their delusions. Make the lives of those in charge of student housing living hell until they abide by your requests.

Depends on how badly you want to rectify the situation.

Edit: Never mind, I saw your edit that it's actually a guy. Just got a **** draw. I'm glad that A&M is not rooming him with girls instead. Just make it abundantly clear to the roommate where you stand and that should be enough to never have to really interact with them.

---

Exactly. Just act like he's not there. Ignore him completely, don't talk to him, don't acknowledge him at all. Make it so uncomfortable for him and his fragile mind that he is the one who moves out.

Feel bad for your son to have to experience this in what should be an amazing time in his life.

Shame on A&M for bending the knee to this BS.

A friend of the family, a junior, is being forced to room with a transgender. He was informed by the transgender student past the deadline for room change requests. He objected on the grounds of religion-Denied. Anyone with any advice?

---

File suit. Seems to be a clear case of violating the First Amendment, no matter how liberal A&M's bureaucracy has become.

---

Oh man. This is good.

---

It confuses you? Not allowing someone to opt out for religious reasons is the liberal way.

---

This friend of the family can opt of out living with the boy-girl any time he wants. Can you point us to cases where people have successfully sued based on their religion not letting them sleep in the same room with mentally compromised cross dressers?

A new political divide: Nearly half of college students wouldn't room with someone who votes differently

And I still know a lot of MAGA's who - if they had to choose - would rather live with a Democrat than a +rannycr@.

Yeah, in this insane world, this kid will be made out to be the hateful one. Go find housing off campus. There are a ton of options now where these student apartments essentially lease by the BED.

FIFY

I'm totally supportive of transgendered folks. HOWEVER, not everyone is comfortable with being a biologically male person dressing up as a girl, much less living with them. I mean, I wouldn't want my daughter to live with a guy who is transitioning to a girl.

---

Why, specifically, does this bother you?

---

Seriously? You really don't know?????????????

---

Actually I don't. People are people. Usually the most misunderstood are the ones who create epic tales and large companies.

If the person isn't a criminal and they are law abiding, why, specifically, does this bother you?

---

The more the Wachowskis have tried to make me understand them, the more their stuff has sucked.

I'm very curious for an update on this.

Are you still doing okay?

Just claim he can't be roommates with a female and force A&M to say that she's a man. Then the roommate can sue A&M and move on. Profit.

---

This is a great idea and would probably get an immediate change so they don't have to go through the mental gymnastics of saying a trans woman is a woman while also making a man and woman be roommates in a college dorm.

I drink and I know things… sometimes

Any update on the "family friend"?
