Firefighters and medics will take their first Trans 101 course on Tuesday, learning the correct way to interact with transgender people and even getting a lesson in what LGTBQI actually stands for, a city official said.
The two-hour sensitivity training was launched in March by the city Commission for Human Rights after Mayor de Blasio signed an executive order allowing people to use any public bathroom or locker room they identified with, regardless of their sexual anatomy.

DOA?
The powers that be can’t seem to pull their heads out of that bottom hole. Taxpayers have absolutely no say has to how their hard earned dollars are being spent on such waste. We would rather watch shrimp mastering the tread mill.
So deranged freak is not appropriate, even though it’s totally accurate?
...Totalitarians will tell you what to say and how to say it....
Big Brother calls it Newspeak. It was that way in 1984. It is that way today.
“you people” pretty much covers everybody doesn’t it.
And finally, when someone is trying to save your life, do you really care what pronoun they use?
“It” and “creature” work for me.
Inmates...asylum.
If Shrillary wins this will be nationwide... hell, Obozo may try to implement it before he leaves office. He’s on the verge of doing it to our military, damn him to hell.
How about just using “IT”.
In the crisis moment of fighting a fire or saving someone from being shot, why would any RATIONAL city entity require that, in addition to the essential things necessary to save a life, a policeman or fireman ALSO has to remember what stupid pronoun to call the people they are trying to help? And will those ingrates then subsequently sue him for addressing their little snowflake selves by the wrong pronoun? Libtard stupidity at its most blatant. It might even jeopardize lives. I cannot imagine the level of stupidity of the people who voted in the politicians requiring this garbage. I know it sure wasn't ME.
They are part of the U.S. Yes, I disagree with this transgender crap, but I love NYC. It’s a great city.
Implied: you will be fired if you use the wrong pronoun and the specially-privileged abnormal sex practitioner complains.
You are right it is the stupidest thing I have heard about.
I was just being sarcastic.
Here you are at post 32 and you are the first to address the question rationally.
A bigger issue here is lifesaving communication. The EMT or Paramedic will be in communication with a ER doctor and eliminating confusion between the EMT and the doctor is paramount with the lifesaving goal.
Sex, age and vital signs are the big three that the doctor needs to know and any confusion in those three can cause the death of the patient.
The Left always needs a boogieman to fight to keep their coalition marching in lock step. LGBT discrimination is the New and Improved version of racism. As usual the likely hood of incents being the victims of the Lefts political maneuvering is of no concern.
There will be a class on Goosestepping later on this week!!!
But then again, if I'm truly a leftist, I want to keep as many unknowable pronouns as I can in order to confound conservatives, and use it against them politically.
Which to choose - "true" social justice, or a club to use against conservatives?
This is really important!
There’s “Man”, “Woman”, “Moron”, and “Flaming Moron” we need to acknowledge.
