Texas Tranny Teacher

Say hello to Laura Jane Klug who, until quite recently, was Kurt Klug. In fact, as recently as July 2011, Kurt Klug was complaining on Facebook about the emotional turmoil caused by his wife leaving him. And so now, the divorced Kurt has decided to be “Laura Jane,” and wants to be a fifth-grade teacher in small-town Texas:

A transgender substitute teacher said she has been told she should not return to her classes, after parents complained about her.
Laura Jane Klug, who was born Kurt Klug, worked as a fifth grade substitute teacher at Lumberton Intermediate School, but was asked not to return after some of the students’ parents contacted the school.
Klug told 12 News that she met with a representative of Lumberton Independent School District’s Human Resources and Superintendent John Valastro Tuesday afternoon. Klug said they suspended her pending a decision by the school board on whether to continue using her as a substitute teacher.
Roger Beard, whose son was in the class Klug was subbing, said what concerns him is the distraction he believes a transgender teacher poses to ten and eleven year old children.
“If it does affect my child and his ability to learn or if it causes questions that I don’t feel are appropriate then undoubtedly there’s an issue with having somebody transgender, transsexual or transvestite, to be teaching that age group,” Beard said.
Klug said that she has substituted at the school without any issues before and she’s unsure what instigated the outrage.
“I have always conducted myself in a professional manner and would never discuss my gender identity in school,” Klug said.

The population of Lumberton is not quite 9,000 people.

You really need to read the report by David Bellow at Texas Conservative Republican, which includes comments from people on Facebook, e.g.: “Here is what a [Lumberton] teacher said yesterday at church: ‘He has 5 o’clock shadow and fake fingernails. The 5th grade class he was in spent more time staring at him than taking their test, so he was pulled out for hall duty.” We can expect LGBT activists to portray  Klug as a victim of bigotry, but common sense suggests that if your mid-life crisis involves a sex change, maybe “fifth-grade teacher in small Texas town” is not an ideal career choice.

    Given George Fox is on teh left coast, and the insanity that rules in the WH these days, it may win. Georgetown has already wrecked itself when it gave into teh kweers back in the 90s.
