Asking males who identity as female to use men’s bathrooms creates ‘hostile environment’: UCSD trainingA mandatory training for University of California, San Diego students teaches that disagreeing with transgender ideology creates a “hostile environment.”A student sent images of the training to Young America’s Foundation with “concern that agreement with leftist gender ideology was being forced on [UCSD] students,” said Spencer Brown, chief communications officer at YAF, in an email to The College Fix.The screenshots illustrate the training teaches students that refusing to call a transgender student by their preferred name is “prohibited conduct” referred to as “dead-naming.”The training also tells students that not using a peer’s preferred pronouns or requiring them to use bathrooms that align with their biological sex may be “sexual harassment.”“Hostile Environment may be created when someone demands that others use a particular bathroom that does not correspond to their gender identity or uses the incorrect pronoun. Intentionally calling someone their name used prior to transition, as opposed to their lived name, is called dead-naming; and may be a form of sexual harassment,” the training states.Students who do not complete the training will be placed on academic hold that prevents them from registering for future course, according to the university’s website.“This means even students whose deeply held religious beliefs of adherence to biological fact must say that men can become women and must be treated as the sex of their choosing,” Brown told The Fix.UCSD has not responded to The College Fix’s requests for comment.The hour-long training is part of UCSD’s Sexual Violence and Harassment, Anti-Discrimination, Prevention and Education, or SHAPE, trainings.“California law now requires all students to take an annual sexual violence and sexual harassment prevention training, and it also expects students to be trained about other forms of discrimination and harassment, including hostile environment based on other Protected Categories,” according to UCSD’s Office for the Prevention of Harassment & Discrimination’s website.
