Now everybody --- every-damn-body --- can sue anybody else at any time if their inward sense of gender is not promptly and universally accommodated.

According to a different source,

Valeria's hurt feelings should be able to get her (his, its) former employer to fork over $500,000 (LINK).

I'm so offended, I may just want to sue myself.

People and companies have no responsibility to make you feel better for your personal decisions.

I was hoping there’d be pictures....

Just refer to everyone as an IT then and we’ll be covered, right?

Or, slap these idiots upside the head and ignore them. Cripes sake...

there will come a time.....at the rate we’re hurtling toward the twilight zone...that we wont be allowed to DIscuss what Gender is... or possibly even use the TERM in public or on the internet.

These ‘gender-neutral’ people are beyond sick.

What a screwed up world we’re living in.

and another $500,000 for humiliation and suffering...

Sometimes welfare, disability, food stamps and/or unemployment is just not enough.

I wonder if one can assume one gender at odd hours, and another at even ones, and then sue if your employer can’t sort it out.

Your gender is not “designated” at birth. It’s not a Coin Flip.

It’s a great scam. No matter what the employer says or does, it’s always wrong and the “victim” is always due a payoff. Al Capone is spinning in his grave because he’s an amateur by comparison.

People are free to call themselves whatever they wish.

And I am free to call them whatever I wish.

And they are free not to associate with me, including quitting the job I’m providing them.
