  Case: Transgender Empathy/Rights
There is a male student at my school who likes to wear nail polish and lipstick. Many of the teachers see this as a class distraction. How can teachers minimize distractions in the class without infringing upon the students' beliefs/feelings/rights?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Teachers are to provide a safe and welcoming classroom for all students. Teachers are not to judge or punish a student for being different and should focus on creating this type of environment for their students. A student's right should not be considered a distraction to the other students.

Comments: At teachers, it is not our place to judge but instead to educate. I agree that we should be setting the example by not allowing ourselves to react negatively and to instead teach them to be respectful of LGBTQ issues.
