Flat Earth: Boys will be girls
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Shakespeare, who had boys playing women pretending to be men, could have done something with this. Jennifer Miles, a musicology student at New York University, is suing the institution for alleged sexual harassment by her professor, who fondled her breasts and buttocks, tried to kiss her and repeatedly asked for sex.
The thing is, nobody - least of all the professor - realised Jennifer is technically still a man. (S)he is having hormone treatment, but has yet to undergo the sex-change operation. A judge has just ruled, though, that that is no obstacle to the $14m (pounds 8.7m) suit going forward.
