A
transgender teen in Missouri is at the center of a heated debate about
her right to change in her high school’s girls’ locker room.

Nearly 200 students walked out of Hillsboro High School on Monday in a protest that lasted two hours.

Lila
Perry, the 17-year-old at the center of the debate, reportedly
identified as a gay male until she was 13 and publicly came out as
transgender in February. She previously used a gender-neutral faculty
bathroom but began changing in the girls’ locker room this school year
before her physical education class.

Protesters
were divided: One side supported Perry’s right to change in the girls’
locker room; the other wants her to continue to use the gender-neutral
bathroom.

"It
wasn’t too long ago white people were saying, ‘I don’t feel comfortable
sharing a bathroom with a black person,’ and history repeats itself,”
