New California bill would require gender neutral sections in retail stores |
2020-02-26 |
[10NEWS] A new Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, bill would require some retailers to have gender neutral floor space inside their stores, Politico reports. The bill, called Assembly Bill 2826, was introduced by Assemblymember Evan Low, a Democrat from Campbell. According to Politico, retailers would be able to sell the same products, as long as they dedicate space where customers can find clothes and toys regardless of whether the items have been marketed to boys or girls. "Keeping similar items that are traditionally marketed either for girls or for boys separated makes it more difficult for the consumer to compare the products and incorrectly implies that their use by one gender is inappropriate," the bill states. The bill stipulates that the rules would only apply to retail department stores with 500 or more employees. If passed, retailers who fail to follow the new rules would be liable for a civil penalty beginning on January 1 of 2023. |

#11 Remove labels, put pink all over the previously girls section and blue all over the previously boys section and the consumers will figure it out. Also helps spot the location from a distance away, and for non-English speakers. |

#9 Why don't these lawmakers in Kalifornia do something useful? They believe that hastening the decline of our society is useful to the revolution. When everybody is poor, drug addicted, ignorant and sexually confused so they are no longer making babies then society will be ripe for the communists to solidify their grip on power. |

#4 So just label the section the it section. He/She/It, the three genders. Or I guess you could use non-human. That might make them feel more at home. |
