Although, we did have a few Muslim families that partly objected to the topic on religious grounds.

But even for folks who may have had a religious sub-agenda, the grossly-disproportionate coverage of the topic was enough to lean on. Near-daily, maybe even daily? C'mon, who dreamt up this approach ....

Of course, we had some administrators who responded to any effort to curtail their enthusiasm with "you're just transphobic." For people who want to take that approach, I'm sure the religious right is a convenient bogyman -- sometimes legitimate, sometimes contrived.
