The kid is dressed as a typical middle school girl and she says her name is Jane. Are you going to check out Jane's private parts to determine whether she's biologically female so you don't get fined for using "she/her" if it turns out she isn't? Are the schools supposed to check a new kid's privates to find out whether the kid is trans so they can make their life miserable as the state GOP assholes intend?
