Sokolow quoted on gender-neutral restrooms

“Everyone is protected under Title IX if they are discriminated upon on the basis of their sex or gender,” said Brett Sokolow, UNA’s Title IX compliance attorney. “Some sexual orientation discrimination is gendered and when it is, it comes within the protections of the statute. Transgender individuals are protected, but the law does not explicitly require gender-neutral restrooms.” Sokolow said providing gender-neutral bathrooms is a good idea wherever possible.
