A Sign of Progress for Thai "Ladyboys"

Picture trying to wedge a 51st star into the American flag, and you'll get an idea of the task that may soon face sign makers worldwide, thanks to a new policy at a rural high school in Thailand.

Administrators at the Kampang Secondary School, in the northeastern province of Sisaket, recently created a third set of toilets exclusively for the more than 10 percent of students who identify as "ladyboys," or transgender.

The symbol representing them combines a male and female figure.
