There are circumstances where an employee turning up to work saying that they are now a different gender should be fireable.
For example, a school teacher. Imagine if Mr. Richards turned up one day and says "hello kids, please call me Miss Richards, I'm transitioning to be a woman and I will be wearing a dress. My voice will change too as I take my magic pills."
Sorry, not appropriate. Should be stood down.

It sometimes does work that way.
shareWhen ? Link to an example of how it works the way you described. We will wait...
shareI don't have links to things I saw on TV years ago mate.

shareWe are not living 'years ago' mate. We're living in the present. Join us some time. You'd be surprised at how the world has progressed, and most people are more knowledgeable than they were years ago on matters such as this.
shareIt's still a disorder.
shareIt's not the FOX comfort zone, but caring about how certain things affect society as a whole, instead of pandering. We live in the "do whatever makes you happy, it's your life" syndrome. It may be our downfall, eventually.
shareWe have progressed into a 'live your true life, and be true to yourself' world. Those who oppose others living their true life are the cause of the downfall.
shareLiving your true life doesn't mean having an adverse affect on the rest of society, nor expecting to have whatever your want. Everything that gave society some structure is not out-of-date and discriminatory. . People today cannot differentiate between equal vs. different, since they are so wrapped up in how special and self-entitled they have been conditioned to feel, which can party be blamed on parenting. The "downfall" is already here. (and it has nothing to do with Trump or what political party you belong to, if any)
I don't know anyone who is living their true life as having an 'adverse affect on the rest of society'. An adverse affect would be just the opposite - society holding them back, which has been happening in this country for over 200 years.

No, they're not living a TRUE life, nor are they being TRUE to themselves. They're lying to themselves and they're lying to everyone around them, expecting for others to accept something that's not true. They then turn it on others living in reality by labeling them "intolerant" or some kind of "ist" or "phobe" because they can't handle reality and would rather others just accept the lie.
It would be no different than someone thinking they are a bear or a dog or a car or an airplane.
They are mentally ill and need help.
They don't need to be made fun of or hurt or be treated like garbage. They're human beings with an illness who needs serious help.
The "downfall" is ignoring this and not getting these people real help. If we do the opposite, we are pandering to a lie, which only hurts them more.

You fool. I am not talking about inter-racial couples, biracial people, handicapped, depressed or overweight people. 🙄
shareI didn't say you were - yet you are so tone-deaf to what you're posting, it's f*cking unbelievable.
I'm comparing your idiotic logic to how it was applied to other people in society over the decades, and centuries. Those who were trying to live their true lives, but were held back for the same moronic reasoning you bring forth today. But you're so far up your own ass, and so selfish when it comes to others, you don't see that. That's The Trump way - think only of yourself, and the hell with everyone else.

Dang, Doggie! You are close to 500 posts in 11 days! In another month you'll be caught up to me and that's my count since the day Moviechat started!
Your sock is getting dirty very quickly!
Slow down buddy. You may need help with addiction to this board.
Take a walk, breathe in some fresh air. Get some oxygen to your brain. Take off your Antifa scarf. Go watch a movie. Play a board game. Give your dog some attention. Eat a healthy meal. Get some rest.

I think a teacher's transition could work if the transition was explained to the kids but it might depend on their age. I think transgender teachers should be allowed to work and possibly put on paid medical leave while a strategy is developed. This might be a state or local issue.
I just remember a guy transitioned at my workplace but nobody told the employees. He showed up in a wig/dress/heels and it was awkward to see a 6'2" dude walking around in 6" heels with zero fashion sense. I'd prefer working with a competent transgender person over an incompetent fool.
Some parents would be OK with this and some wouldn't. I'm sure the school would have to address this if enough parents pulled their kids out because they weren't comfortable with their child being around this person.
