From out here in California, it's hard to understand what the fuss is about. A law allowing students to use bathrooms or join teams corresponding to their gender identities has been on the books since 2013. And just last week, the Assembly passed legislation requiring all single-stall bathrooms to be open to any gender.
In fact, the Obama administration distributed a list of "emerging practices," such as installing privacy curtains in locker rooms, that are already in place in schools around the country.
But the fear of change is powerful. So is ignorance.
