Trans student kicked out of Baptist school

A student was expelled from a Baptist university because she came out as transgender on MTV.

Domaine Javier appeared on an episode of True Life called “I’m Passing As Someone I’m Not,” i.e. she’s biologically male but identifies as female. In August, she was kicked out of California Baptist University when the school found out. Representatives from the school wouldn’t provide comment to media.

Oh, you have got to be kidding me. This is all kinds of messed up.
