• Should a person that gender identifies as female/male/transgendered (regardless of their sex) be able to use the bathroom in public schools based on their gender identification? Why? or Why not. Please give a good argument to support your answer.
• Share your thoughts on if the federal government should be involved with state policies and laws in terms of this issue?
