Title: Teacher was "forced" to resign for using a trans student's last name instead of preferred one.

Reason: User Banned (5 Days): Excuse and downplay transphobia.

I feel like using a transgendered person's last name is as close as you're going to get with a certain segment of the population, so in some cases you might as well just shrug your shoulders and take it for what it's worth. It's something you can't really fuck up - a last name is a last name is a last name, and isn't associated with gender identity at all. I can see someone using it as a diplomatic stop-gap measure. Not that this was that, though.
