The original site I picked this news up off is really off the wall when it comes to TLG things. Part of the "hate them" crowd. You can figure the comments were skewed. Lots of likes dislikes about this story at the school and on the net. Net search of the story turned up a little less hate mongering at the following site.

There will always be those who hate for one reason or another or for no reason. It's part of human nature for some.

Maybe it's time to go back....
I came to Wisconsin from Colorado Springs in 2000 in part to escape the incredible hostility I received from neighbors, strangers on the street, and so-called Christians, the last of whom insisting I should return to presenting as male because it was "more honest."
Suddenly, one school there has allowed a transgender six-year-old to use the girls' restroom, and now this. There are far more resources for transgender people there than here--maybe I was just in the right place at the wrong time.

Rachel,
There is and always will be, "what if" we had (name your poison of choice here) There are no perfect places to live. The way a person present themselves is never going to please everyone. There will always be those who look at anyone else and hate because those other people don't look like a mirror copy of themselves.
Hugs hon, I pray you find peace and happiness soon.
always,
