The biggest and most interesting change I’ve heard about on campuses recently - and I’m talking about the most liberal ones - is that no one cares about your gender, gender identify, gender expression or sexual orientation any more. D says ‘You are who you are, and you love who you love. Use whatever bathroom has the shortest line.’ She says there is much experimenting, much fluidity between what used to be boundaries, and very little judgement. The only issue is how much political activitism there is on campus around the issue and push into the surrounding community (where safety issues do indeed become a factor.)
That’s a very different reality from the one that existed even a decade ago. Not sure that this is the reality campus-wide, but it is her reality and I couldn’t be more delighted.
