Despite the women\u2019s descriptions of Langford\u2019s alleged actions, the judge ruled that the school did not violate any policies by allowing the student to join.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The University of Wyoming chapter voted to admit &#8211; and, more broadly, a sorority of hundreds of thousands approved &#8211; Langford. With its inquiry beginning and ending there, the Court will not define \u2018woman\u2019 today. The delegate of a private, voluntary organization interpreted \u2018woman\u2019, otherwise undefined in the nonprofit&#8217;s bylaws, expansively; this Judge may not invade Kappa Kappa Gamma&#8217;s freedom of expressive association and inject the circumscribed definition Plaintiffs urge,&#8221; the judge said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The ruling continued, &#8220;Holding that Plaintiffs fail to plausibly allege their derivative, breach of contract, tortious interference, and direct claims, the Court dismisses, without prejudice, Plaintiffs&#8217; causes of action.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/trans-teacher-known-massive-prosthetic-breasts-returning-canadian-classroom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>TRANS TEACHER KNOWN FOR MASSIVE PROSTHETIC BREASTS RETURNING TO CANADIAN CLASSROOM<\/strong><\/a><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The lawsuit brought by seven members of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/lawsuit-against-univ-wyoming-sorority-alleges-trans-woman-watched-female-members-visible-erection\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kappa Kappa Gamma claimed<\/a> that Langford violated university policies by joining a sorority despite not being a woman or making efforts to appear female.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Langford states that he is transgender and that he self-identifies as a woman. His behavior, however, does not reflect a man living as a woman let alone a man attempting to \u2018consistently live\u2019 as a woman,&#8221; the complaint said. &#8220;Other than occasionally wearing women&#8217;s clothing, Langford makes little effort to resemble a woman. He has not undergone treatments to create a more feminine appearance, such as female hormones, feminization surgery, or laser hair removal. Plaintiffs often observe Langford with the facial hair one would expect on a man who either did not shave that morning or whose facial hair has regrown by the evening.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Additional court documents alleged other unacceptable behaviors such as &#8220;voyeuristically peeping on them while they were in intimate situations, and, in at least one occasion, had a visible erection while doing so.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/dylan-mulvaney-mocks-bud-light-controversy-criticizing-transphobia-hate-awards-speech\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>DYLAN MULVANEY MOCKS BUD LIGHT CONTROVERSY WHILE CRITICIZING \u2018TRANSPHOBIA AND HATE\u2019 AT AWARDS SPEECH<\/strong><\/a><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Though multiple women took part in the lawsuit, the sorority itself filed a motion to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/wyoming-university-sorority-pushes-lawsuit-transgender-member\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">dismiss the lawsuit in June.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The central issue in this case is simple: do the plaintiffs have a legal right to be in a sorority that excludes transgender women? They do not,&#8221; the motion read.<\/p>\n<p>It added, &#8220;Plaintiffs request the Court to insert itself into this controversial political debate and declare that a private organization can only interpret the term \u2018woman\u2019 using Plaintiffs\u2019 exclusionary definition of biologically born females.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/download\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>When Langford was originally inducted into the sorority in 2022, reports noted that Kappa Kappa Gamma was &#8220;the first sorority in the University of Wyoming\u2019s history to accept an open-transgender student into their ranks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i><strong>For more Culture, Media, Education, Opinion, and channel coverage, visit <\/strong><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i><strong>foxnews.com\/media.<\/strong><\/i><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/federal-judge-dismisses-university-wyoming-students-lawsuit-trans-sorority-member\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/federal-judge-dismisses-university-wyoming-students-lawsuit-trans-sorority-member <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>University of Wyoming sorority members\u2019 lawsuit for the inclusion of a transgender student in their organization was dismissed by a federal judge on Friday.
