Max Hightower With lawmakers in Austin hellbent on targeting the LGBTQ community with harmful bills during the Texas Legislature’s 2023 regular session, school administrators at all levels around the state were doing their part, as well, to advance the conservative agenda.
But the community and its allies refused to take the attacks sitting down. FRISCO ISD Reports about a complaint filed against Frisco ISD board of trustees member Marvin Lowe didn’t hit the headlines until February this year, even though the incident actually happened in September 2022, and the complaint was filed by a student from Brownsville in October 2022.
According to reports, at the Texas Association of School Boards and Texas Association of School Administrators Convention, following a session titled “Transgender Students in Texas Schools: What You Need to Know,” Lowe approached a transgender teenager who had spoken during the session, and described his own “differing views” about transgender teens.
Lowe began talking to the teen, who was at the time just 16 years old, about the “locker room environment” and how “Men like to walk around naked with their junk hanging around,” according to information obtained by the Dallas Morning News through freedom of information requests.
