All it will take is a parent or legal guardian telling the school that little Johnny is really little Janie or little Susie is really little Sammy!

They are being taught that there is no distinction between the genders, thus there is no need for sex-segregated facilities. They are being taught that modesty and the desire for privacy are discriminatory, biased, unloving and uncaring. Students in American schools are being taught that feelings are the all important component of life — reality is what they make it.
