Federal judge rules Virginia school's transgender bathroom policy is discriminatory.
Corrigan had argued in court last month that Grimm remained female. He said gender is not a"societal construct" and that it doesn't matter that Grimm underwent chest reconstruction surgery and hormone therapy.
Allen's ruling joins others that have been favorable to transgender students in states that include Maryland, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. But differing policies are still in place in schools across the country, said Harper Jean Tobin, policy director for the National Center for Transgender Equality, speaking last month with the AP.
McCaleb cited a federal discrimination complaint his organization filed in June that says a Connecticut policy on transgender athletes is unfair because it allows transgender girls to consistently win track and field events.
