Blogging Assignment Week 8

http://www.enewspf.com/latest-news/gay-and-lesbian/27607-california-governor-signs-two-bills-to-advance-transgender-equality-.html

This article talks about two new Californian laws, the first one reinforcing equal rights for transgender, and the second one allowing birth certificate change without a proof of surgery.

Interestingly, the sole comment on the page is "Who's in the bathroom stall next to me?" While these laws are certainly advancing equality and making life easier for transgender people under the law, is society's views changing too slowly to keep up with new legislation?
