so far, there isn't evidence (that I've seen) that these numbnuts have actually treated women or LGBTQ students unfairly when it comes to grading or other forms of assessment. And unless such evidence is found, most academic governing bodies will see this as a first-amendment issue.

A case can be made that, by filing this suit, these professors are creating a hostile environment for some students in their courses. That's a lot more likely to result in having their courses cancelled and their teaching duties replaced with other administrative work - not dismissal.

Not saying this is how it should be. Only how it's going to be at the moment.
