US Supreme Court rejects case about student's 'There are only two genders' T-shirt

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The U.S. Supreme Court declined on Tuesday to hear a student's challenge on free speech grounds to a Massachusetts public school's decision to bar him from wearing a T-shirt reading "There are only two genders" due to concern about the message's effect on transgender and other pupils. The student, identified in court papers as "L.M." because he is a minor, sued officials at John T. Nichols Middle School and the town of Middleborough, seeking monetary damages. A trial judge and then the Boston-based 1st U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled against him.
