I'm glad I don't inhabit the workplace any more. Me and my dog walking mates, male and female, come out with some language that might just be a hanging offence these days. The other day one old girl, must be 80, said she was heart broken when it turned out that Rock Hudson was a shirt lifter. Her words

Excellent!

DTM will be mightily relieved that not only will he be able to be authentic at work, but he'll be able to transition there as well! 

No need to hide the lippy. high heels and fish nets now Mark. 

We already have to state our pronouns in our email signatures 

Yup, same here.

Obviously I refuse, so me and my gaffer have "meetings" about it.  Give it about 3 years, I'll put them on, with something like "I have a penis, so He/Him"

Also, I am not allowed to post that here either, so no doubt another "chat" coming....

To the point, efficient use of language, everybody knows what she was saying.

Far better than all the talking around something in a D&I way, and nobody knows WTF you are talking about.

Why?

To make it a condition of employment would be decisive and therefore discriminatory.

I have so far resisted this by asking if it's a condition of my employment.

Apparently it is not.

You'll get cancelled, mate

Pretty sure that would count as constructive dismissal

I experienced it there on Union courses 40 years ago before the rest of the world had even heard of it.
Problem is the kids who were students there at the time are running the show now.
I well remember lunchtime in the Students Union bar I kept trying to order a Ploughmans lunch and the girl behind the bar just walked away each time I asked for it.
Eventually someone informed me that I could either ask for a Plough persons lunch or stand there hungry all day.

Ireland has just passed an act identifying 79 different genders that have to be recognised by law , the presenting minister couldn'y pronounce some of them and had to stop for breath several times in the 25 minutes it took her to read them out .
I have no problem with anyone deciding to identify , dress and live as , well ....anything , but firmly believe that the birth gender should be sacrosanct .
Call yourself what you want but you are what you are from an official /administrative/ legal  point of view," piss standing up you go in that door , sitting down then that one's for you luv ......"
It's believed that < 150 people have had surgical sex change procedures in Ireland ,over an unknown or announced time period , but here we are again catering for the vast minority .
I read recently ( sorry can't find the source so correct me if I am wrong ) that in Scotland when anyone is being admitted to  A&E they are asked if they believe that they are pregnant , this includes males .
I really do not understand why we waste time and effort  on this immensely uneccesary subject .

[Rangie]

They can call themselves whatever they like , as far as I'm concerned there's only male or female end of.

Have to, or have the option too?

Neither is a good idea......but 'have to' is to buy into, or be forced to accept the 1000 genders ideology as reality rather than lunacy.

I saw this. Very sad. Utter insanity.

Why do  99%  of people worldwide who know there are just male XY and women XX, have to go along with this crap.

Those who believe this crap can probably be made to believe the world is flat and dragons still exist.

As you are everyone else should.

How did our ancestors know male from female before pronoun badges?

Dragons do exist.  I've known a few.
