More Progress

I recently pointed out an example of degeneration that some would deem to be progress. Now I see that in the two new elementary schools built by a Kansas City-area school district, boys and girls will share gender-neutral restrooms. Some renovated restrooms in North Kansas City High School will also have gender-neural restrooms. “The bathrooms still have an open alcove area with a common trough sink, but the toilets are enclosed inside individual stalls with floor-to-ceiling walls and lockable doors. A single sign on the wall outside displays both the male and female symbols.”

Here is a quote about this from what has got to be the dumbest mother in America: “‘I think it is great,’ said Melanie Austin, whose daughter will be a first-grader at the district’s Crestview Elementary and in gifted classes once a week at the innovation center. ‘You just don’t know what gender a kid might identify as. This helps everyone to feel comfortable, accepted.'”

Some will see this as a solution to the school gender conundrum. Including some libertarians no doubt. Why do I say this? Because I remember when all of this “boys in girls restrooms” nonsense started a few years ago that a well-known libertarian organization with a website, a blog, and a magazine ridiculed those of us who questioned this nonsense.

Now, if a private business wants to have only gender-neutral restrooms, that is its business. Those who don’t like it can take their business elsewhere. But a government school is not a private business.  This idea of having gender-neutral restrooms will certainly not stop with schools. See my review of When Harry Became Sally.
