| Subject: Ridiculous: school makes bathrooms gender-neutral, making it 'like it is at home' Tue Sep 08, 2015 1:18 am | |
| In a move to accommodate students who do not fit in with typical gender-norms, an elementary school in the US has made their bathrooms – just bathrooms.
At the beginning of the year, Miraloma Elementary in San Francisco, California, (for children ages 4 to 11 years) started removing all signage associated with bathrooms.
So far the change only affects kindergarten and first grade bathrooms.
SF Gate reports the change was "in part to acknowledge six to eight students who don't fit traditional gender norms — kids who range from tomboys to transgender," said Principal Sam Bass.
