You need to go a DEI course. That way you will be become more inclusive of our much loved pansy and nancy boy community. :)

There was a time when people went to work.....to work.

You would leave your sexual preferences at home and not feel the need to wear a badge telling everyone your pronouns.

Yep. you need to be a social justice activist first....and then maybe put in a bit of graft once everyone has been told the evils of straight white men. Everyone can then wave their rainbow flags and take the knee to George Floyd.

Now that's a proper day of hard graft.  :)

I, me & mine.


If that isn't good enough for them, insist that you believe that using gendered pronouns when referring to other people is a distraction from genuine equality and inclusion so we should only use its, their and who.

Why?

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

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  ;D

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.

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.  ;D

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 .

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. :-X

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. :-X

Fortunately, I have two winning cards in my hand. Firstly they won't find anyone to do what I do for them for what they pay me, and we all know it. Secondly (and more importantly) my boss is possibly the only person in the whole organisation who cares less about all that bobbins than I do!  :y

That said, I know plenty of people aren't in such a fortunate position and have to conform to keep a roof over the family's head, which is incredibly sad!

Has your better half had much issue with kids identifying as lawn chairs, or whatever the latest gender is these days?
