I interpret this as that it's to protect their trans friends, treat them like human beings, and let them come out when they're ready and feel safe. It's unfortunate that conservatives want to put their hands in the pants of trans folk though.

I believe the question was about whether schools should teach about or mention the existence of trans people, not whether schools should out closeted trans people.
