"LOS ANGELES — Warning that boys soon will be able to use girls' bathrooms and locker rooms, social conservatives and religious groups are trying to block a California law from taking effect in January that is designed to prohibit discrimination against gay and transgender people in schools.
Opponents are circulating petitions and fliers in churches and elsewhere warning that the law will permit "homosexual indoctrination" of schoolchildren as young as 5 and that "gender-specific bathrooms would also be discriminatory.""

Well we are talking about a country which couldn't pass the Equal Rights Amendment.
I think at the time one of the wacko complaints was that it would mandate unisex restrooms.
