From now on, you will be required by law to have a department store in California supermarkets where you can buy gender-neutral baby products.

With regard to children, California supermarkets with at least 500 employees should have a section that does not specify whether toys or children’s toothbrushes of a certain color are more for little girls or boys, he writes. USA Today.

The law requiring the sale of non-discriminatory baby products was signed by Democrat Gavin Newsom, making California the first US state to name gender-neutral merchandise for young children on store shelves. At the same time, this does not mean that the classic pink and blue sections (that is, girls / boys) will disappear from stores, it is only necessary to ensure that everyone, regardless of gender, feels comfortable choosing between games.

Democrats in the western state succeeded in passing this legislation for the third time, and they failed in 2019 and 2020 as well. Democrat Evan Low noted this year’s proposal, who said the law was inspired by the ten-year-old daughter of one of her colleagues. The young girl asked her mother why parts of the job were “forbidden” on her just because she was a girl, he said.

Thus, the law did not hit supermarkets unexpectedly, especially since there were already nearly two thousand stores in the United States that announced in 2015 that they would not use gender-discrimination labels.
