Individuals living in New York City can choose from a minimum of 31 different gender identities, many of which allow them to fluctuate between some version or combination of male or female identities. Quoting: Laura Bow Businesses that don’t respect and accommodate an individual’s chosen gender identity risk incurring six-figure fines under rules implemented by the city’s Commission on Human Rights. The list of protected gender identities is available online and includes options such as “gender bender,” “two spirit,” “third sex,” “androgynous,” “gender gifted,” and “pangender.” A city official speaking on background confirmed to The Daily Caller that all of the listed identities are protected by the city’s anti-discrimination laws, but said that the list was not exhaustive. ... Someone who identifies as “genderqueer,” for example, is a “person whose gender identity is neither man nor woman, is between or beyond genders, or is some combination of genders.” A “gender bender” is someone “who bends, changes, mixes, or combines society’s gender conventions by expressing elements of masculinity and femininity together.” Similarly, someone who is “gender fluid” is a person “whose gender identification and presentation shifts, whether within or outside of societal, gender-based expectations.” If someone self-identifies as “androgynous,” it means they are “appearing and/or identifying as neither man nor woman, presenting a gender either mixed or neutral.” More at [link to dailycaller.com] Here's the actual list taken from PDF at [link to www.nyc.gov] Bi-Gendered Cross-Dresser Drag-King Drag-Queen Femme Queen Female-to-Male FTM Gender Bender Genderqueer Male-To-Female MTF Non-Op Hijra Pangender Transexual/Transsexual Trans Person Woman Man Butch Two-Spirit Trans Agender Third Sex Gender Fluid Non-Binary Transgender Androgyne Gender-Gifted Gender Bender Femme Person of Transgender Experience Androgynous Also from the PDF link: This means individuals have the right to: • Work and live free from discrimination and harassment due to their gender identity/expression. • Use the bathroom or locker room most consistent with their gender identity and/or expression without being required to show “proof” of gender. • Be addressed with their preferred pronouns and name without being required to show “proof” of gender. • Follow dress codes and grooming standards consistent with their gender identity/expression • Can have sex with children of any age without consent. So I guess all of NYC allows bathroom swapping? Whoa. |

The easiest way around that is to have single stall bathrooms again with locks on the inside. Even if a business has to remodel the ones they have and just change all the bathrooms to single stalls. This way any gender can flipping use it and not have to worry about some dude walking into a girls room. Maybe do the same things from now on with shower rooms to and so on. |

If I was running a coffee shop, I would close up shop and move to another city with out such a mentally insane law. Lunatics are running the Asylum now. You can't operate a business under those ridiculous conditions and still be profitable. The fines alone for using the wrong gender pronoun would be enough to bankrupt you. What small coffee shop can afford to pay a $250,000 fine for calling someone the wrong gender pronoun. All it would take is one malicious asshole to complain to the city and poof there goes your business. This is absolutely ridiculous. Why aren't businesses in an uproar over this? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 72211292 Totally agree. That entire list is insane. NYC is not only having a moral breakdown, they're having a mental breakdown as well. A small business can't operate under these conditions. You know that there will be "all types and stripes" out to try and trick these businesses into saying something that sounds discriminatory, and then poof the lawsuit. |

What if "someone" suspected that a certain year might actually contain an important event; for everyone? What if, God forbid, they either wanted this event to happen, or knew that at least something would happen that was big, not "The End Of The World," but would at least change the nature of the world to something that at you or I at least (THANK GOD!), would like even less than the way the world seems to be going now? ...who knows; maybe they might want to distract you by coming up with ideas like, for instance... Politicallymandatedtransgenderfreedomofbathroomchoice to accomplish two goals at once: 1). Distract you. 2). Test the waters to try to find out if they are succeeding in their goal of getting the general public dumb enough to just accept ANYTHING; of whatever nature... ...would something like that scare you? The time for anger though is over, at least over something like this. Results (good ones at least) are better acheived through calm directed action, though to reiterate; just ignore issues like this. I forgot to tell you about Goal #3: ...they WANT you to be angry. |

I can relate to this. I was born a male but I felt trapped in my body, I knew inside I was really a woman. After much soul searching I decided to express myself and became a woman. After sometime, I realised I felt I was really a man trapped in a woman's body so I decided to express myself that way. So I'm a trans-transgender...lol I didn't see my one on the list, can I get 6 figures? The world just keeps getting more insane. |

I could make a longer thread of my own on this, been thinking how everything is backwards from what I was brought up with. Quoting: Vision Thing In the old school feminism of the 1970s, I thought the whole point was that it didn't matter whether you were male and female, you were a person first, an individual, not a member of some assigned group. Now all of a sudden the thing that matters most is whether you are or aren't male or female? Also I have been aware for some time, that women have had more freedom to dress the way they want to. A hundred or so years ago wearing bifurcated garments wasn't an everyday option for most women in the Western world. Now a woman can dress like a man and really, no one thinks anything of it, either it's not even noticed or maybe it's amusing. So is a lot of this about clothing, and personal expression through dress? If a guy wants to wear a skirt or dress, does that mean he should be treated as a woman? Why? A woman wearing pants is still a woman. It doesn't change her to wear the clothing that used to be considered men's clothing. It's just so bizarre that this stuff is such a big deal. I thought we went through a whole sexual revolution to make it NO BIG DEAL one way or the other. I thought people were people first, before it mattered about their sex. There are really just two types of people in the world, I've come to realize: reasonably sane, and completely batshit crazy. |
