I wonder if taxpayers are going to balk at paying for additional restrooms and locker rooms in schools to accommodate the spectrum of genders -- since there aren't just two genders these days.
Since school faculty and staff need to monitor activities in the restrooms and locker rooms, which gender of teacher will be allowed to enter the rooms for these newly fabricated genders . . . hermaphrodites?

(AgapePress) - Reports say a growing number of public and private elementary schools are allowing young boys to enroll as girls and vice versa. One five-year-old boy who is said to be rejecting his biological gender was enrolled by his family in Broward County Schools and is being called the youngest transgender child in the U.S.
A recent San Francisco Chronicle article featured two Oakland, California, elementary schools that are developing new ways to accommodate students who are said to be exhibiting "gender dysphoria," which is described as confusion or discomfort about one's birth gender.
However, noted mental health counselor Dr. Warren Throckmorton of Grove City College in Pennsylvania believes children who feel they are the wrong gender require individualized, case-by-case intervention. In some cases, he suggests, reported incidences of gender dysphoria indicate as much about the mental health community as they do about the actual problem.
Throckmorton says he has counseled children with gender-variant behavior who later embraced their God-given biological gender. Unfortunately, he contends, homosexual and transgender groups often use cases of gender confusion in children to promote their own political agenda.
