I saw a story on KIRO TV about a person on Capitol Hill named Dylan Paul. Dylan Paul is 24 years old and transgender. Dylan was a man and now has breasts. But she still looks very much like a man if you watch the piece.
The story reports on what happened when Dylan was working at Pagliacci up on Capitol Hill. She says that a customer mis-gendered her.
According to Dylan, she was working at the salad station there and the customer said, 'Thanks man.' And she said, 'Well I'm not a man, I'm a ma'am.'
"When he heard that he laughed in my face and then made his way out of the store," Dylan tells KIRO TV.
Dylan was really upset that this customer laughed in her face and left the store. She said that she talked to her manager at Pagliacci, and her coworkers, and they didn't take her side in the situation. It sounds like she wanted them to not serve this customer again, wanted to ban him because he said 'Thanks man,' and laughed when she said, 'ma'am.'
So Dylan quit her job at Pagliacci Pizza. She's still very upset about this, so she went to the Transgender Justice League and Elaine Wiley -- who also used to be a man, said they want to take up Dylan's cause, and they recommended to the Pagliacci owner that they have transgender sensitivity training.
Now, you understand the situation that the owner of Pagliacci Pizza is in. He's got a place on Broadway, on Capitol Hill. I have no idea if he really believes that they need to have transgender sensitivity programming, but they're going to now.
The LGBT will shut his place down if he doesn't just cave in to any demand they make because a customer said to a woman who looks like a guy, 'Thanks man.' That's the source of all of this.
The owner of Pagliacci is saying all the things that the transgender community wants to hear right now. "This incident has shown us that we need to spend more time talking to all our employees about Trans issues and doing a better job of kind of educating our employees and our managers," Matt Galvin told KIRO.
Do you? Do you really have to do a better job of training your employees because they didn't take Dylan's side in this?
Maybe your employees thought Dylan was being ridiculous when a customer said, 'Thanks man,' and Dylan said, 'It's ma'am,' and the customer laughed. Why do we always assume that the transgender person is in the right in something like this?
Maybe the other Pagliacci employees were right in saying she's being a drama queen about this. Maybe the customer was being just a normal human being and thinking I don't know why that guy said, 'It's ma'am.'
But the fact that because of political correctness we are all forced to assume that one side is right in a dispute like this, it's just somebody that is looking to be a victim here. That's what it sounds like to me.
So Pagliacci is going to close down, lose a day's worth of business for the sensitivity training. And the owner has got to do it or else they'll be after him.
Everybody has to be a victim. It's the American way.
Because PC is a trump card that defies common sense, logic, and reason and is a Get out of Jail card to excuse bad behavior and stupidity...: )
Dylan Paul was and is and always will be a man with the delusions that he is something else and somehow he wants others to pretend along with him.
What does this group of Super-heroes look like????
Political Correctness ==> Fascism ==> Authoritarian Dictatorship
Notice this author also calls this person a woman.
Leather chaps and thongs.
“Transgender Justice League”
Wonder what their superpowers are.
There is no such word as "mis-gendered."
Well, see, they have these magic "wands ..."
Because political correctness is the exact opposite of actual correctness.
This is all about “Look at me I’m special. I’m better than you. You’re a hater’’. I’m so sick of this bs.
I’ve met 2 transgendered people in my life. Both came from very normal and supportive homes. However, both were totally messed up straight out of the womb.
Transgendered people have a mental illness.
The illness should be treated, not coddled.
Do you like my nose ring, and the cabbage on my head?
What a drama queen! No one even fired this guy.
The gay org needs to tell him to stop being a whiny baby.
Btw, you’re not really a woman since you don’t have pms and a period. Some guy wanting those is batcrap nuts!
Yes, it’s possible for a male to be a drama queen.
It really frosts me when people like the pizza shop owner cave. That sets a precedent. He should have told that pervert to go jump in the lake.
Yes. Also, the black accusing you of racism is always right too. The woman accusing you of harassment is right.
I worked at a company where any professional white who was not in management could be disciplined or fired based on a single report from any black on the floor. Didn’t work the same way with management, though. We always tried to have witnesses when we had to talk to people on the floor.
