legislators-to-reconsider-transgender-bathroom-bill-cbs-newsTRANSGENDER children in Valencia will now be able to use the bathroom of the sex they most identify with at school.

They can also be called whatever name they wish and will be allowed to wear the clothes of either gender.

It comes after the regional government signed off on a new protocol in a bid to tackle transphobia.

A statement from the government said the new rules aim to ‘guarantee the right of gender identity, gender expression and intersexuality at educational centres.’
