"The conservative group argues, however, that the bill may open up doors to "shocking" policies such as those that have already been implemented in Los Angeles Unified School District regarding transgender students. According to the school district's web site, if a male perceives himself as a female, he must be granted access to female locker rooms and restrooms. Furthermore, if the student wishes to keep his sexual status from his parents, the teachers and administration must refer to the masculine pronoun (him/he) when talking to the parents and use the feminine pronoun (she/her) at school."
