And since when did you take a two-year-old into the toilets based on their sex rather than that of the adult accompanying then - let alone based on their sense of gender identity at that given moment?

I don't understand why people don't just let people (children/adults whoever!) just like the things the like. Why is there a desire to label things 'boys' and 'girls' with the exception of safe sex specific places.

I get that you don't want to limit children to just dolls for girls and building kits for boys but gender neutral?Seems a bit limiting.

Surely for anyone with common sense it just means having double the selection...? This whole 'gender neutral' thing is just Confused because unless you believe that there are intrinsic differences gender is utter rot.
