. In California schools, if a boy feels like he is a girl (or says he feels so....), he can use the girls' bathrooms, or locker rooms....
Last month, Governor Schwarzenegger signed SB 777 into law, by which gender is defined by individual choice, regardless of a person's biological attributes.
Bob Tyler, general counsel with Advocates for Faith and Freedom, contends the bill violates privacy rights of students throughout California's public schools. He also says the law will leave children vulnerable to predators who will use the law just to get a "look-see" at other people. "It's ridiculous that a young girl would be required to share private facilities such as restrooms, or locker rooms, or other private locations with a male, when society has always separated males and females in certain situations in order to protect the privacy of these kids," argues Tyler. "This bill just defies common sense." In the same state, “mom and dad” as well as “husband and wife” are now banned from the school vocabulary, in order to not discriminate against children who have two moms and no dad, or two dads and no mom, etc.
Are we going toward a new "norm".... with same-gender parents? I always thought that the "norm" is defined by the majority, and that's what should be used in schools.
I guess I was wrong....

But is that not the consequence when people "feel" what is right and wrong? When it is not reality, but imagination that is cultivated? How big does a train have to be before you realize you cannot step out of its path?

No one knows how many laws their are in this country, but few if any are ever removed. I often thought how nice it would be at the Federal, State and County level if once each decade they would write no new laws but just cull a lot of worthless laws.
You cannot legislate behavior, if you try you will end up writing laws upon laws because behavior is multifaceted. Somehow our legislatures have forgotten the basic test of any law, does it meet the common sense threshold and is it enforceable.
The tragedy of this law it places way to much power in the hands of educators many of which cannot even pass the common sense rules unto their own interaction with students.

OF COURSE male and female facilities are separated in Austria, by biological attributes, not by fantasy....
What are you insinuating with your question...???

Yes, it is definitely going too far.... Because then, little (and bigger) girls cannot live safely anymore.... That's obvious.

I do think it's a bit extreme. As a victim of sexual abuse, I would not want my daughter sharing the bathroom with any male. I don't care if he feels like a girl.... he still has a penis. Enough said!

hi travel, it's not quite that simple. Apparently you just can't feel like you are girl for a couple minutes to gain access to a girl restroom (important pervert update). But have to be living as a woman etc. I first leaped when I heard this too, but decided to look up more info.

Family associations are suing now against that law BECAUSE it does not stipulate details like that, and it looks like predators CAN actually use this law for getting off the hook when molesting girls.... .

oh brother. Well, here is one more embarresment for America. California is truly ther home of the whackos. And people wonder why we hate it when they move up here?!? We have enough screw balls...stay in California! But, this will go nicely with the new transgender reality show.
#1 trouble with America: TOO MANY OPTIONS!
I swear, when I travel next and somebody asks where I'm from, my answer will be: CANADA! I don't want to have to answer any stupid questions about all the idiotic things that go on here.
You are who you are...period. That is an option that God made for us, or what ever other deity you choose to worship. I'm pretty sure none of them condon flip flopping your sex like the wind blows.

this blog is not about transsexuals.... like in grown-ups...
This blog is about public schools in California and laws concerning those schools.
As for the transsexuals.... I have no clue whatsoever what's in their mind... .

Per Request:
Judgment is astray in every human endeavor because people praise fantasy more than objective reality. Biological fact establish the moral code for all of human endeavor. The human mind, if it is to rule, must learn to be the servant of all. This is what Christ was trying to get at, but man is still blind.

You cannot legislate behavior You cannot legislate sanity nor intelligence, this is why one has to legislate behavior--however that behavior must be abstracted from biological rights,
A human body life sense system is that human body system which must acquire something from the environment, process that which it has acquired for a product that sustains and promotes the life of the body.
This gives one the Holy seven metaphored from front to back of the Judeo-Christian scriptues.
Each one is so that we can have life and have it more abundantly. One is not yet working--Human judgment which is why the scripture was written--and why man is still in the Garden of God.

PERVERT?
Boys like to have fun! I won $20 in bets from my friends and got a 2 day vacation!
The people in California are WHACKED - how can they administer something like this? Can you imagine what will happen in the locker rooms?
Have they nothing else worth spending their time on?
Personally I am hoping for an earthquake that separates California from the USA -
