[NYPOST] The University of Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party,, Davis, has announced plans to convert its men's and women's locker rooms at its recreation centers into ''universal'' all-sex locker rooms, sparking outrage among women's rights activists.
The university announced the renovation project in February, claiming it was doing away with the old locker room format for the purpose of ''inclusivity.
''We value inclusive, accessible environments that accommodate the diverse needs of our community. We are pleased to announce that we will be remodeling the current locker room facilities to implement universal locker rooms,'' the university said in its announcement.
''All campus recreation members can use our universal locker rooms, regardless of who they are or how they identify. These spaces are inclusive of members with disabilities and members of all gender identities.''
News of this change spread Tuesday after two bills aimed at keeping transgender athletes out of women's and girls sports failed to pass Monday at the state and federal level. |
