It's happening because people are losing their livelihood over it. One shouldn't have to sue or fight HR over this. It's a shame.
That may be, but if you want to get paid for doing a job, you kind of have to do that job. If you don't like it, you have options...up to, and including, finding other employment.
Right, cause I'm sure there are a lot of jobs that part of the job description says must be able to lie. Or there are a lot of places that are open with their participants and tell them they must be subject to indecent exposure in order to participate.
I'm not an employment counselor, it's none any of my business what someone is hired to do.
I was just letting you know once again that you were wrong to claim there were no laws.
So you claim, but I've yet to see exactly what this law says. Care to provide specifics? I don't recall seeing any specific laws cited in your sources, so I'd appreciate more information. Otherwise, I can't comment.
The right to claim that that I'm being discriminated against because I'm black.
You can claim that
now, if you want to. I don't know how seriously anyone will take you, though.
Should I be allowed to say my race is black on all legal paperwork?
That would depend on how seriously perjury is taken with whoever issued those forms. You may run that risk unless you can prove, objectively, that you are black, should they require it. After all, they're not asking you what race you identify as, are they?
My driver license? Those sorts of things. Why or why not?
If they ask what race you identify as, you can answer that; but if they ask what race you
are, you would need to answer that truthfully.
Remember how I keep saying that identity and biology aren't the same thing? This would be an example of one of their differences.
You keep missing the issue here. Yes you can identify in your personal life however you want. No one has denied that. The issue is your biology determines if you are correct in that identification.
And you keep missing the fact that identity and biology aren't the same thing.
And whether or not I should be required by my job, the government, agencies etc to treat you as the opposite sex, race or whatever.
The government doesn't require you do that...but I can't speak for your employer. That'd be between you and them.
And don't try and tell the kids that it's a legitimate identity and it's okay to medicalize that.
No one has asked me, or needs my permission.
Would it be okay that schools tell your kids that it's perfectly okay to identify as a cat and medicalize yourself to become a cat?
I don't know of any school district that assumes the role of health care proxy for its students.
Would it be okay to teach kids it perfectly legit to identify as an American Indian and put that on all their legal paperwork, and receive the American Indian benefits?
They can try, but the only American Indian benefits I'm aware of are issued through the specific tribes involved, and they usually require more than just identifying as a member of their tribe before they grant them.
Kids should then color their blonde hair black and get a dark tan. It's would be perfectly fine to do that correct?
Is there some reason why they can't dye their hair and sit in the sun now?
No you didn't. I asked you to define woman. You said a woman was an adult female.
No, that was not my answer. I could requote myself here, but I prefer to leave you to find out what I actually said instead. Otherwise, how would you learn?
So what is a female? I'm looking for you to answer it and you are not.
I did. You didn't like it then, and you didn't bother to read my previous post to remind yourself of what I said, so obviously you're not really interested in how I'm defining it. Why don't you define it, make whatever point you're trying to make, and see where that gets us.
But, just for fun, let me anticipate that conversation and offer the reply I'll most likely have to it: Identity and biology aren't the same thing.
I've found it very typical that the left can't answer that question.
I don't represent "the left", I only speak for myself.
Obfuscation is what you do.
I've only ever tried to be as clear as possible.
Why is that. It's a very simple question. Why the obfuscation?
I'm not obfuscating. I answered the question to the best of my ability, as clearly as possible.
Yet somehow you would know whether or not my identity of being African American is legitimate or not.
I have
never, not at any time
EVER said your identity, or anyone's identity wasn't legitimate. And this fact will be definitively confirmed in your next post when you fail to quote me saying anything even remotely close to that.
I have no way of knowing whether or not your identity is legitimate. Only you can know that.
You would know if my identity of being a redtail hawke was legit or not. Or are you making a claim that you would have no way of knowing?
I have no way of knowing what species you identify as, no.
But you vote for lawmakers, or do you not vote? Is that how you go through life? Feeling you have no impact on anything going on around you?
Sure, I vote. But they don't call and ask for my advice, so my impact on how they do their jobs is severely limited.
Do you somehow feel you would need to check everyone's genitalia? I don't.
I don't feel that need, no; and I wouldn't do it, even if I did.
Simple acknowledgement? Really?
Yup. Pretty much all I can do, really. Not that anyone's asked me to do anything else, mind you.
Do you support or approve if men competing against women in women's sports?
I have no opinion on the matter. I don't follow sports.
Do you approve of or support men showering with women?
I can only speak for myself, and if I started showering with women, my wife would have something to say about that.
Do you approve of or support schools transitioning children without parental knowledge?
No school has asked for, or requires, my approval or support. Beyond that, I don't know of any school that functions as health care proxy for its students, so it doesn't seem to be much of an issue.
Do you support or approve of California's law removing parental rights from parents who's children come to California for medical transitioning?
As I said earlier in this post, I haven't read that specific law, so I can't comment on it. I also don't live in California, so my support or approval is irrelevant anyway.
These are simple yes or no questions. But I'm guessing you are going to continue to obfuscate.
I did not obfuscate. I answered to the best of my ability.
Sorry if that's not what you wanted.
You seem to be seeking my approval, or disapproval for these things...but the fact of the matter is, my approval, or lack of it, is entirely irrelevant. I tend to not offer my approval or disapproval for things no one needs me to approve, or disapprove, of.
