Worcester Catholic schools have started a new policy on sexual identity in which students must use their names and pronouns assigned at birth.
According to the policy starting this fall, students at the diocese's 21 schools must "conduct themselves" in a way that's consistent with their biological sex, which includes what they wear and which restroom they use.
The Diocese of Worcester said they wanted a consistent policy across all schools because some had policies while others did not. The diocese said the policy is adopted from Catholic teachings about "accepting one's own body as it was created."
"They want to be honest. What does the church teach about sexual identity? As Catholics, we believe that not only is our life is a gift from God, but that our sexuality is also a gift from birth," said Ray Delisle with the Diocese of Worcester.
The policy does emphasize that bullying or harassing students based on their perceived sexual identity will not be tolerated.
"We still respect everyone, even when we disagree with people," said Delisle.
The new policy is already being challenged by LGBTQ+ advocates. Some said it will push out students who need love and acceptance.

Now the FBI can really go after them.....Likely he who sits on his throne in Rome too.
Common sense would dictate just don't go to a school that conflicts with your beliefs. Indeed it would be that simple to most rational people, but the trans-mafia isn't rational.
