Cracking the gender binary

Queer Student Union is fighting to establish gender-neutral bathrooms around campus.

Ash Yezuita would like to wash her hands in peace.

"I don't want to think twice about which bathroom I use, so I do use the men's bathroom," said Yezuita, a junior women's studies major. "But sometimes I get so nervous about leaving [the stall] and having a run-in with someone. Yes, I do put myself in that situation. But why is that even a situation? When you want to pee, you shouldn't have to feel like you're making a life decision."
"Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." Oscar Wilde
