This ought to stir the pot among our liberal friends.
It is now illegal to refer to a transgender individual in NYC by the "wrong" name or pronoun. In the workplace, if a worker informs the employer that he/she/it wants to be referred to as he/she/it or a specific name, the employer faces a $125,000 fine in they or other employees don't comply. The individual does not need to have surgery to lop anything off or tunnel anything in, just the "intent" to change gender. They can change their mind anytime they want, so someone can tell the boss they want to be called Stephen this week, then change it to Stephanie next week. He can be a she in January and she can be a he in February. And the employer and other employees are expected to keep this straight? (no pun intended). In addition, any complaint to the NYC Human Rights Commission becomes a he said/it said issue. This also extends to customers as well. And I thought it was bad when the Univ. of Maryland required the Freshman (yes, not PC term and I don't care) class choose from over 100 gender identities that they want to be classified under.
I suggest we use the pronoun "fk" to universally address these people, which stands for freakazoid. Everything should be OK as long as the circus is not in the 5 boroughs.

You can paint lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig.

Bruce Jenner can change his name but he can't change his gender. He's still a "he" no matter what he wishes to be referred to as. If a female wishes to be addressed as Mr. I can do that as a courtesy, but it doesn't make her a him. If they want to live a fantasy world, they can fool themselves but they can't fool nature or God. Squatting to use the toilet doesn't make a guy a "her."
First time a guy dressed as a girl walks into a restroom behind my wife, he may find a fist in his lipsticked mouth and teeth on the floor.
They can make all the laws to protect freaks that they wish, but it won't force intelligent people to accept warped behavior as normal.

Me thinks you protests too much! Sounds as if this really hit home with you and that your mother did a real job on you as she raised you. You should just go along with your true feelings, enjoy the fact that the Supreme Court says you can now legally marry your boyfriend, and go to the Rainbow Club dances. They will welcome you.

I doubt it. The only way I'd walk into such a place is with a Glock and an AK-47. I might get a medal for improving the human gene pool.

.....although, I don't believe in bullying. I wouldn't walk into one of those deviant lifestyle establishments to begin with, but as long as they didn't force their lifestyle upon me, and keep it private, then I would ignore their abnormal behavior. In their warped but mostly harmless minds, they believe it is perfectly normal behavior, so they should be pitied.

Better watch out with that kind of wording on a public forum. FBI can act and the result might not be to your liking!

Another warped and abnormal person speaks. Unlike you, I am fine being a normal heterosexual with a wife, four children, nine grandchildren and four great grandchildren. Of course, you probably DO feel that this is an abnormal lifestyle , in your warped and demented state. Stay out of my way, keep your perversion private, and you can live your fantasy lifestyle. Don't expect PC from me. I am past the age that gives a **** about PC. The only PC I recognize is my Personal Computer. If I offend you, then take into consideration that I consider your abnormal and deviant behavior to be offensive to me. So, shut up about it and go in peace. I am protected by the first Amendment, even with a Tyrant in the White House.

I think the term "I'd" as in "the only way I WOULD" keeps the comment in the hypothetical. Besides, I don't own a gun, never fired a weapon, never even held one so I believe I'm in the clear.

I find it amazing how this whole transgender PC culture evolved. First, TV talk show hosts such as Oprah, Dr. Phil and Jerry Springer dug these freaks up and gave them a forum to "tell their story" Then Hollywood and the far left embraced these people as if they were "normal" rather than just lock them up in an asylum where they belong. Then legislators get involved passing laws to "protect" these individuals---I'd rather they passed laws to protect my grandchildren FROM them. Now, we also get to pay for their aberrancy---if you cannot afford the surgery, just commit a felony and the penal system will pay, or join the military and commit treason, and the feds will pay. We also get to hear them whine incessantly about wanting "equal rights" Now, in NYC, your 1st amendment right to free speech has been denied, with the threat of a huge fine. Face it, a transgender can walk up to any of us on the street and call us any name they want---free speech. But if you so much refer to it as a he instead of a she, you can be facing legal issues. When are we going to take back the America we grew up in?

Oh, but you sound scary, so you have to be censored. Be careful or they will tell your mommie on you. And then what will you do?

LOL. I get the sarcasm. But remember, it's the progressives who are living on Mommy's couch, I work for a living.
