It was just recently announced that retail stores in California may be required to maintain gender-neutral sections for clothes, toys and childcare articles.
This proposal comes from a Bay Area lawmaker. The new bill would require retail department stores with 500 or more employees to maintain areas on their sales floor not divided by gender. They believe this stigmatizes children who want to wear or play with something that is marketed for the opposite sex.
The new bill would fine stores up to $1,000 for violating the policy.
