Many thousands of Californians have signed a repeal petition regarding this law. If the state determines there are enough valid signatures the matter will go to the voters to see if the law stands or fails.

If any of you free thinking individuals had a 13 year old Daughter, can you honestly tell me it wouldn't concern you that the bathroom she used at school was open to any male student who wanted to go in there ? Where do we draw the line on stupidity ? To satisfy the desires of a very small percentage of students who have "gender identification problems" we put the vast majority of otherwise normal students in a bad position and possible danger ? Land of Fruits and Nuts seems pretty appropriate with this new ruling.

When you include some back story with your post it is easier to comment to it.
CALI is the home of anything obtuse. If one person out everyone in the entire state wanted access to restrooms of the opposite gender because that person claimed to be ''special'' in some manner, the wacko state would bend over backwards to accommodate - through legislation - that person regardless of cost or how it may inconvenience tourists or other residents of the state. I was born there and gone before I was a year old. I have been back on business twice. That's enough for me.
How would you feel if someone of the opposite sex walked into the bathroom while you were in there ? I wouldn't even want a female to come into the bathroom when I am in there and I am a male, how will females feel ?
Sounds awesome actually...grrrrrrrr. Id love to see more women in the mens room....that's hot!

You gotta be kidding, so the sum total of what you know about "Cali" is based on 2 business trips and living here when you were an infant (oh, and living in Maryland is such an improvement)?!!
If someone had told you this a year ago you would have said they were nuts, it could never happen, but here it is !! I can't imagine how this is a good idea for most "normal" kids who have no problem with gender identification. How would you feel if someone of the opposite sex walked into the bathroom while you were in there ? I wouldn't even want a female to come into the bathroom when I am in there and I am a male, how will females feel ?
California is opening themselves up to a whole lot of problems if you ask me (rape, molestation, etc). Just one more nail in the coffin of decency in America.

Cali has ALWAYS been strange, so this is just a more perverse flavor of strange.
You got a dick? Use the men's restroom or don't cry foul when two women beat your butt in a baltimore McDonald's
I have one of those, and I'm not scared to use the women's bathrooms (and haven't you ever seen a woman book it for a stall in the men's room while you're standing at the urinal? Live and let live, you know?).
Many thousands of Californians have signed a repeal petition regarding this law. If the state determines there are enough valid signatures the matter will go to the voters to see if the law stands or fails.
Over 90 days, using volunteer and paid signature gatherers, Privacy for All Students amassed about 620,000 signatures, 400,000 of them directly from churches, according to political consultant Frank Schubert, the Prop. 8 campaign brain who is handling this effort. Schubert is also the political director of the National Organization for Marriage, or NOM, which is also backing the effort.
Though the results won’t be known until early next month, and possibly later, supporters on both sides have have been biting their nails, frequently checking the California Secretary of State’s website for updates about whether enough valid signatures have been collected to get the referendum before voters.
About 505,000 of them — or a little over 80% — must be deemed valid. So far, the rate is hovering at about 76%.
