It never means giving them manageable class sizes or health coverage or time to plan lessons. It means inspecting their bodies and identities like the state has become the vice principal of a dystopian middle school.

A teacher’s job is to teach. To help a kid understand algebra, history, language, art, maybe even the radical concept that human beings deserve basic dignity. The job is not to pass a daily government approved gender inspection before first period.

Children are not confused by trans teachers. Children understand far more than adults give them credit for. What confuses them is watching grown ups preach kindness in one breath and write laws designed to make another human being feel unsafe in the next.

If a child sees a trans teacher showing up prepared, patient, capable, and committed to their students, the lesson is simple: people are different, and difference is not danger.

But if a child sees lawmakers use public power to single out that teacher, shame that teacher, and make their livelihood contingent on conformity, the lesson is darker: cruelty can wear a suit, carry a Bible verse, and call itself “public service.”

Maybe the lawmaker behind this bill should spend less time regulating teachers’ wardrobes and more time learning what humanity looks like. It looks like letting people live. It looks like protecting workers instead of targeting them.

It looks like understanding that a classroom is not made safer by making one teacher afraid. Because when your biggest contribution to education is deciding which adults are allowed to exist comfortably near children, you are not defending schools.

You are teaching persecution as policy. And that is the real indecency.
