The city of WestHollywood in Los Angeles just took some big steps to help people feel safer when using public bathrooms. A lot of public bathrooms are labeled women’s bathroom or men’s bathroom.

For many gender non-conforming, genderqueer, or transgender people using a bathroom can be really stressful. While many communities have already started doing this, cities like Philadelphia and Washington DC are following their lead.

This law helps people make the best decision for themselves about which restroom to use and encourages other people not to judge, police, or mistreat fellow bathroom goers. The law also supports parents with children of another gender.

Everyone has the right to use public restrooms without discrimination or fear!
