University of California President Janet Napolitano is responding to concerns raised by gay and transgender students and staff by directing the system's 10 campuses to create more gender-neutral restrooms and to allow students to update their records with a preferred name that does not necessarily match their legal name.

Napolitano said Monday that the two actions respond to recommendations from a task force that started meeting before she assumed the president's job and that she has asked to provide her with ongoing advice for how the university can be more LGBT-inclusive.

Can my UC name be Bruce Wayne and my gender Batman? Can I keep my restroom in a secret cave that nobody else can use? Batmen can't go if someone else is in the cave.

Only when normal people stop sending their kids to idiot factories like this, and even better, when graduates of UC are laughed out the HR offices across America, will things get better.

and people wonder why politicians take us for fools

Well, this will end when women start noticing the pools of urine that tend to propagate in men’s restrooms.

to allow students to update their records with a preferred name that does not necessarily match their legal name.

I would be known as "Malcolm X John Lennon Huma Hussein" and would demand a private bathroom.

Will there be urinals in these restrooms? Or will they be cleverly designed as sinks so as not to cause offense?

Just wait till some big boy delays his zip up and flashes his ying yang accidentally...WWIII.

Well, this will end when women start noticing the pools of urine that tend to propagate in men’s restrooms.

And when men see what liberated women... Maybe I shouldn't go there.

Butch is bringing the university down to her level.

“and to allow students to update their records with a preferred name that does not necessarily match their legal name. “

So we are all free to use aliases as our official names on official paperwork.

Insanity.

Why not just let everybody piss in the hallways at will?

[RightGeek]

to allow students to update their records with a preferred name that does not necessarily match their legal name

Golly! Just like Barack Obama!

[Crazieman]

I’m a free spirit and unconventional thinker. Its my right to piss in the hallways. I’ll sue for discrimination.

[morphing libertarian]

Don’t students change there names all the time when they marry?

[Argus]

Can I use my preferred name with the IRS? How about Selective Service?

[TChad]

This should significantly expand opportunities for false rape accusation.

The LGBT community is just trying to make it possible for them to have gay sex in bathrooms.../s

[POWERSBOOTHEFAN]

If I had to go to the bathroom REALLY bad I would run into the men’s room. That’s only if I had to urinate really bad and the ladies’ room line was far too long. Thankfully I haven’t had to do that yet.

Don’t worry,guys. I’d give you a head’s up if need be.

That being said, I know I’m a woman and I’m perfectly sane. ;)
