There's been a lot of talk this past year about the sometimes-controversial move toward gender-neutral public restrooms. Those against it are often at one extreme — adamant that there should be a separate room for males and a separate room for females — while those for it are steadfastly in the other extreme, with most news reports focusing on transgender teens wanting to feel comfortable using the bathroom.
