Ok, I agree this is stupid and invasive. But it is not mandatory yet as it has to go before a full board vote later this month. But in reading a few articles about this, one sentence kind of stunned me:
Do they think people don't know? Do they think a teacher or administrator or other students will forget that 2 years ago Jill was Jack? I don't want to seem insensitive here, but aside from a few high end drag queens or models, you can tell. And even on them you can tell if you look close enough. There is nothing to out. People already know.
