Catholic women’s college backtracks on admitting transgender men due to strong opposition
Catholic Women’s College Reverses Decision to Admit Men Who Identify as Women After Major Backlash
A Catholic women’s college that recently made headlines for its controversial decision to admit men who identify as women has now reversed its stance. St. Mary’s College, known for its commitment to Catholic values, faced significant backlash after announcing its plans to dabble in transgender admissions.
However, in a surprising turn of events, the college has now clarified that it will only admit individuals who were born as women. This decision comes after widespread criticism and opposition from various groups.
The controversy surrounding the college’s initial decision sparked a heated debate about the intersection of gender identity and traditional Catholic teachings. Many argued that allowing men who identify as women to attend a women’s college would undermine the institution’s core values and mission.
St. Mary’s College’s reversal on this issue highlights the ongoing struggle to navigate the complexities of gender identity within religious institutions. It also serves as a reminder of the power of public opinion and the importance of open dialogue when addressing sensitive topics.
For now, the college has made it clear that it will continue to uphold its commitment to providing a Catholic education exclusively to women who were born as such.
