This trial is set to last for three weeks. The main issue brought up by the Asian-American students is that Harvard rated Asian students lower on personality which decreases their chances of being admitted in the college despite scoring higher than other groups.

This is the most vocal the Asian-American community has been in a while when it comes to social issues. Normally Asian-Americans ignore anything negative that’s directed to them but now, many Asian-Americans have united for this. As a college student myself who is part Asian, I’m glad many Asian Americans are starting to speak out against this subtle discrimination and prejudice rooted in “political correctness”. Even if the Asian-American students lose this lawsuit, at least the public will know that Asian-Americans have had enough of being treated as expendable.

I don’t know what are the chances of the court case going in favor of the students based on the fact that Harvard is one of the most prestigious colleges in the world and perhaps have a lot of resources and support at their disposal. Do you think the Asian American students will be able to win the suit?

This bull from Utah clearly wasn't down with it. He still got circumcised, though...

For context- this subject has come up for scrutiny in the UK in recent weeks. Some rulings in prison are devolved to different parts of the UK, such as Scotland, whose parliament's biggest party is the liberally-minded SNP. In Scotland at present, transgender prisoners may apply to be transferred to a prison that corresponds to their gender identity. They may apply regardless of if they have undergone transition therapy or legally changed their gender, though of course the prison board may reject the application. However it has recently caused major controversy as one inmate, Karen White, who had been convicted of sexual offences against females, was approved for transfer to a women's prison despite not having legally changed their gender or begun any form of gender therapy, and four inmates subsequently came forward to testify that they had been sexually assaulted by White within a few days (White was then transferred back to a men's prison.) It gained some wider publicity after the author JK Rowling retweeted a tweet calling urging stricter control in future. So, I just wanted to know what your thoughts on the matter were.

(A couple of additional bits of information:
There are fewer than 200 transgender inmates currently in the UK, with a population of about 60 million.
However, over 50% of transgender inmates at present are either in prison for sexual crimes or have been convicted of sexual crimes in the past.
On the other hand, some activists argue that transgender prisoners are more likely to suffer abuse from fellow inmates in a prison that does not correspond to their identity.)
