Gender identity is defined as a personal conception of oneself as male, female, both, or neither. In 2014, President Obama signed an executive order barring discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity among federal contractors. The order covered employers who perform federal work and protected an estimated 20 percent of American workers. Opponents included religious groups, who argued that the order would prevent them from receiving federal money or contracts if they could not meet the new guidelines because of their beliefs. Proponents argue that the order was nece…

It is already covered, and should only be applicable to transgendered persons, not people who decide they don't like gender roles and decide to be non-binary (a choice)
@8Z3PZTNNew Democratic2yrs2Y
It depends upon how it is used. Like if they are brutally murdered for being trans then yes but i feel someone would use this law as "someone misgendered me put them in jail"
@Mitchfynde3yrs3Y
Yes, as long as there are clear limitations on what "gender identity" means
@8TTDS3B3yrs3Y
Yes As long as it doesn’t infringe upon free speech or other rights
@9HJSSRYNew Democratic5mos5MO
Yes, however, there should be a distinction between one being confused about another's gender and, discriminating against someone due to their gender.
@9GYSNHD5mos5MO
No, it is already covered and should be only applicable to transgendered people, not people who decide they don't like gender roles and decide to be non-binary.
@9GCJ9X96mos6MO
For the purpose of the government, protectivelaws should be based on sex, not gender. This would still protect the gay community.
@Daboss2o1Conservative 7mos7MO
It should not be. if you have a PP you are a man, a Hole there and you are a woman, there are no other combinations. and what your birth sex is is what you are.
@8XHPLF32yrs2Y
Yes, but on certain restrictions
@8XH6SN92yrs2Y
I lean more towards yes. Some people feel that they do not socially fit into the male or female boundaries but I don't really know that much about this.
@8XDJPRG2yrs2Y
if that person is happy do what they please in that situation so not yes and not no
@8XBJ3YGNew Democratic2yrs2Y
I need more explanation. like perhaps re word it or sum?
@8X7R8D92yrs2Y
There are biologically more than 2 genders :) There is something called "intersex", which is the third biological gender, in case you didn't know. Non-binary exist naturally.
@8X2SVZY2yrs2Y
Yes and no. It depends on how sensitive the person is towards the subject.
@8WYH9VF2yrs2Y
I don't really care what people say their genders are
No, gender identity is too vague and subjective, and would would conflict of free speech. As is hate speech. Trans can do and identify with what they want, but do NOT legislate speech!
@9JC6BKV3mos3MO
People with legitimate issues shouldn't be discriminated against, however there is a large subgroup of that culture that's using the litigation as a shield and playing a different power game that I would consider unethical, though I haven't given it enough investigation to determine exactly what's going on there.
@9DHRMNZ8mos8MO
If you’re a plant people should laugh at you. Other than that, I support gender identity added to anti-discrimination laws.
@9D5G4P89mos9MO
Yes, but don't make the non-adherence a criminal matter
@9D2BF3P9mos9MO
I am for gender identity however I don’t think it should have legal ramifications if someone does not respect it unless it violates the person who has gender identity charter of rights
@9CQJF7L10mos10MO
No, anti-discrimination laws are too subjective and infringe on our freedom and liberties.
@8ZVJLZG2yrs2Y
theres only man and women
@8ZTYPCD2yrs2Y
No, but I believe being more respectful to people who don't fall under situated gender categories is necessary.
@8ZTRGND2yrs2Y
you can i identify as what ever you want but that dont mean u are that gender u just prefer 2 be none as it
@8ZT423M2yrs2Y
If intentionally used as a sourse of harrasment/bullying you should be charged, but not for small issues such as messing up pro nouns
No it shouldn't because its getting ridiculous at this point
@8ZR8QDRConservative2yrs2Y
No, all discrimination is wrong, therefore laws should not be made for special interests or minorities.
@8ZQ72FN2yrs2Y
It's important that people give others the chance to try and understand different gender identities and not be criminalized for adaptation time
@8ZM4Q6D2yrs2Y
Yes but as I stated before, everyone's entitled to opinions in a moral and ethical extent, ie discrimination should be looked down upon.
Yes, but descrimination laws should be universal
@8ZKR6Z82yrs2Y
No, It is too much of Anti-discrimination.
@8ZKQNKH2yrs2Y
If the pronouns are not weird
@8ZHLXYW2yrs2Y
I think all people should be treated with respect and not discriminated against but I do think gender identity is linked with mental health
@8ZHHYDM2yrs2Y
Sex is a biological and unchangeable thing. Gender identify his more of a social thing, a social identity. Gender identity needs to be respected but we can't put it in laws, because it is something that can change. In laws identity needs to be solid, in things like legal documents and passports for example.
@8ZHCM232yrs2Y
i can not respond to this question at this time
@8ZGYVY42yrs2Y
сложно ответить на этот вопрос
@8ZGRXJ72yrs2Y
Gender is gender be who u wanna be
@8ZFWNWG2yrs2Y
no, only biological “genders” should be recognized.
@8ZFGRY32yrs2Y
I don’t understand the context/question
@8ZBS5B82yrs2Y
Yes but only if someones isn't claiming there gender identity something completely absurd for example a potato just to draw attention.
@8ZBJDHQ2yrs2Y
they're making gender identity too big of an issue when we should be focussing on over stuff. gender identity is important to an extent but is over ruled in some circumstances.
@8Z8Z3QW2yrs2Y
We should define gender and agree about what were actually talking about before making a decision
@8Z87ZRQ2yrs2Y
Yes and stop sacrificing women's rights to appease your white guilt.
@8Z82ZM22yrs2Y
And I have Zero use for one Jordan Petersons viewpoints and rhetoric. I think his podcast fuels social and political discord.

Depends on the impact, sports teams no, firing yes
