At that point, don't you just start using the girls facilities to try and force the issue? The girls would get their parents to complain a "boy" is in their bathrooms and delaying gym by waiting for him to use the locker room. How incredibly asinine that a doctor is not enough to assert the kid's gender to their administration

The locker room is about to be very uncomfortable.

Given his wrestling I wonder what his weight class is. If he's on the bigger side he will be destroying the legacy of women who likely would have won against other women.
