Bathrooms, Schools, & Other Public Accommodations For the LGBTQ+
The fight over public school bathrooms has become a flashpoint — and a symbol — for the LGBT rights movement in recent years. At the heart of the issue is the right of all Americans to public accommodations — that is, safe access to goods, services, facilities, and privileges in the public sphere.
That’s a bit wonky, but the battle being fought over bathrooms is about whether trans and gay individuals have a right to use all of the facilities the rest of Americans use in a way that accommodates their needs. For trans kids in school, that means being able to use the bathroom that suits their gender identity — not the gender on their birth certificate, or the gender that the school thinks they are.
