In Portland, Oregon, a genetically male cheerleader who identified as a girl was welcomed to the squad, then dropped for disciplinary reasons (or not, therein lies some of the controversy). The principal ordered the girl reinstated, the coaches resigned, as did the girls on the squad. Oh, yes, to complicate matters, the cheerleader is black.

I feel this article is excellent. Read it and see what you think. http://wweek.com/columns/coverstory#36.06.
