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.

Throughout history humans have been much less stuck up. The Romans had communal bath houses where males and females did their duty.
Genitals, we all have them, why be so scared and uptight about it?

Gotta love the way folks who don't even live in California are so concerned for our "well-being"!
BTW, they could at least start by getting their info. from some reasonably mainstream source, instead of your typical fear-mongering, right wing rags (like "The Blaze" or the "Washington Examiner")!
I won't live there because it's too expensive, too crowded, taxes are too damn high, and their government is horrid.
That being said, they do have some progressive aspects I like but not enough to endure all the other crap.
I'll visit California but never live there.
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.

That's the logical issue Don. How about a little privacy and respect for the young girls.

Thanks for the informative article. How interesting that the Los Angeles Unifed School District (with over 700,000 students) has had a similar policy since 2005. So the alarmists who would have us listen to their predictions of what will happen actually have a history from which to draw examples. That is, if those alarming things actually happen. Well, don1945? Do they?
Debates are fine, but we have a real-world example of a policy having been implemented, so we don't need claims of what will happen - we can see what has happened. So, please, identify for us the specific problems that have arisen in LAUSD since 2005 due to this policy.
I've got a question about this law--can gender-fluid and/or cross-dressers also legally use opposite-gender bathrooms here in California?
