Remember the U. of Wyoming Sorority Sisters Forced to Accept a Transgender Member? It Gets Worse.

Even though President Donald Trump and his amazing dream team of an administration are doing an extraordinary job, the debris field left across the country by Joe Biden and his feckless administration will, in some aspects, literally take years to clean up. Even if we are fortunate enough not to elect another Democrat president for a few election cycles. But although President Trump has signed several executive orders reversing Biden-era decrees, there are still plenty of left-wing activists who will "resist" at all costs. The alarming part is, some of them wear black robes.

In 2023, I brought you the story of the Sisters of Kappa Kappa Gamma (KKG) Sorority at the University of Wyoming. In May of that year, their new "sister," Artemis Langford, a transgender woman, a.k.a. a dude, applied to move into the sorority house on campus. When several members filed a lawsuit asking to declare Langford's membership null and void because he was a biological male, a judge told them basically, too bad, deal with living with a man.

Last week, the same judge dismissed the lawsuit for a second time, this time with prejudice, ruling that the University chapter of KKG did not violate any of its rules by allowing Langford to join in 2022. Judge Alan B. Johnson, a Reagan appointee, wrote in his ruling that the sorority's own documents showed that it “defines women by their gender and not their ‘biological sex.’” What kind of Kamala Harris-worthy word salad is that? Johnson went on to write:

Nothing in the Bylaws or the Standing Rules requires Kappa to narrowly define the words ‘women’ or ‘woman’ to include only those individuals born with a certain set of reproductive organs, particularly when even the dictionary cited by Plaintiffs offers a more expansive definition.

As we have learned, activist judges are not necessarily the appointees of Democrat presidents. In addition to word-saladry, Johnson also dismissed the reference given by KKG members to the definition of "women" in Trump's January executive order as "adult...human females." Johnson then appeared to channel his inner Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, writing:

We are not entirely sure what this definition means, not having a degree in biology. But even assuming this definition aligned with Plaintiffs’, it only applies to the Executive Branch’s interpretation of federal laws and administration policy. It is not relevant in the world of private contracts, which is where we currently find ourselves.

In short, KKG is a private organization that can define "women" or "woman" in any way it wants. KKG members not only got no help from the university, but they also claimed that Kappa's national organization violated their own bylaws by admitting Langford, and cited a 2018 “Guide for Supporting Our LGBTQIA+ Members." In it, KKG states that it is a "single-gender" organization and that they do not discriminate based on gender identity.

The judge dismissed the case with prejudice, meaning that the sorority cannot bring the same claims to his court. However, they can still file an appeal with the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals.

As I wrote in 2023, when the lawsuit was filed by KKG members living in the residence, Langford was not a resident of the sorority house but spent time there and ate meals. Members told stories of how Langford would sit and watch them for hours and make inappropriate comments. On more than one occasion, members claimed that while sitting and watching them, Langford would become physically aroused and put a pillow in his lap to hide it.

Even in the era of Trump, campus refusal to do away with things like diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), as well as biological men invading women's spaces, like sorority houses, is not going away. Statistics for the number of biological men attempting to join sororities are hard to come by, but Artemis Langford is certainly not the only one.

Neither the University of Wyoming nor Kappa Kappa Gamma has commented on the lawsuit. What better way to say you condone young women being violated in this manner?
