   A Trump-appointed judge blocked a biological male high school   
   student who identifies as a girl from wearing heels and a dress   
   to graduation Friday.   
      
   U.S. District Judge Taylor McNeel of the Southern District of   
   Mississippi ruled against granting an emergency restraining   
   order to block a dress code restriction from being enforced on a   
   transgender high school student named "L.B." who wanted to wear   
   heels and a dress.   
      
   McNeel argued in favor of the district enforcing its dress code   
   policy, and interpreted it as status quo. He also argued there   
   wasn't significant precedent established regarding cases of   
   transgender individuals and dress codes, according to WLOX.   
      
   The district would have removed L.B., 17, from graduation if the   
   student showed up in the outfit, which they said was against its   
   dress code policy, the plaintiff attorneys from the American   
   Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) said in court filings.

   The ACLU argued that the district's decision was a violation of   
   Title IX and the First Amendment right to freedom of expression.   
   They added the district's decision would cause "significant   
   harm" to L.B.   
      
    "L.B. wants to wear a dress and heeled shoes at her graduation   
   ceremony, consistent with the gender that she lives every day.   
   However, just days before her graduation, Defendants made the   
   sudden decision to force L.B. to dress according to the male sex   
   that she was assigned at birth at the ceremony—even though L.B.   
   entered HCHS as a girl and has lived every aspect of her high   
   school career as a girl," the ACLU said.

   "Defendants have promised to remove L.B. from graduation should   
   she attend while wearing a dress and heeled shoes under her   
   graduation robes. Because of Defendants’ gender-based   
   restrictions against her, L.B. will be forced to miss her own   
   high school graduation—a once-in-a-lifetime event that she and   
   her parents will never be able to replace," the ACLU continued.   
      
   The graduation took place on Saturday, and Reuters reported L.B.   
   did not attend.   
      
   "Our client is being shamed and humiliated for explicitly   
   discriminatory reasons, and her family is being denied a once-in-   
   a-lifetime milestone in their daughter's life," Linda Morris, a   
   staff attorney for the ACLU Women's Rights Project, told Reuters.
