Out of the Closets, Into the Bathroom
Every single-occupant bathroom in Philadelphia may soon be legally required to be gender-neutral.
Philadelphia’s bill is an effort to make good on promises set down in the LGBT equal rights law that Mayor Michael Nutter signed two years ago to fulfill his stated goal “for Philadelphia to be one of, if not the most, LGBT-friendly cities in the world and a leader on equality issues,” according to a report in The Advocate. The newly introduced legislation does not apply to multiple-occupancy public bathrooms in the city.
Council member Anthony Squilla introduced the bill on behalf of the Nutter administration, the Daily News reports. “It’s making it comfortable for everyone, whether you’re a transgender person, whether you’re a straight person or a gay person,” Squilla said.

“It’s given us a happy, care-free mood,” Ashley Carney said. Carney, a member of the Gay-Straight Alliance at Richwoods High School, self-identifies as pansexual. “We don’t have to worry about people judging us. We’re just here to have fun with each other.”
