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…

no, there are only two genders anyone who thinks otherwise is mentally ill and should get help you cannot just say you are something you are not like if you are born a man you are a man you can't just change that because that's how you feel yourself you are what you are and deal with it or go get help
@8TNGFRXConservative4yrs4Y
It shouldn’t be forced upon people
@8ZR8QDRConservative3yrs3Y
No, all discrimination is wrong, therefore laws should not be made for special interests or minorities.
@8Z5RJYQConservative3yrs3Y
It's not myproblem nor myown fight.
@8YTR7BFConservative3yrs3Y
Your a boy or girl there is no other way around that.
@8YJ7WXZConservative3yrs3Y
It does not matter what someones gender identity is as long as they receive fair treatment
@8YFHZQZConservative3yrs3Y
Yes, but there should be a recognized list of genders and gender identities to allow proper representation and the means to be able to enforce laws involving them
@8V93X6QConservative4yrs4Y
you are either born a boy or born a girl
@8V5BZS8Conservative4yrs4Y
Yes, but there should be an exception for sports so that people must only be allowed to compete against athletes of the same biological sex as them to ensure fairness in women's sports.
@8TWWH2ZConservative4yrs4Y
No it hasn’t been there before it’s fine as it is
@8THYJHNConservative4yrs4Y
Yes, and the government should protect everybody from discrimination. However, personally I think that there are only two genders that are determined generically and not psychologically .
@8F3PG2ZConservative5yrs5Y
Yes, it doesn't matter what a person is or thinks they are. We have no right to judge.
@8DS3W9SConservative5yrs5Y
the Government should not control what you can and cannot say
@B4BMNQYConservative3wks3W
Non, le Genre forcé doit être discriminatoire!
@9TXQ77FConservative7mos7MO
This is a mental heath issue. There have only every been (2) genders, what is the point of creating new ones. Every person should have equal rights regardless of the gender.
@8R377JD4yrs4Y
Yes, but only have complete surgical transformation
@8C7KPKS5yrs5Y
Your one or the the other you got a 50/50
@8WC3QKP4yrs4Y
I believe there are only two genders. But I think that gender identity should be added to the anti-discrimination laws because my beliefs should not affect whether people are being included or not.
@8Q6C4Y44yrs4Y
No, and businesses should generally be able to operate however they please
@heatherdvdprincess3yrs3Y
Yes, except in jobs where gender identity matters. For example, a gay man shouldn't see boys naked in non-medical environments. And if the behavior they choose, rather than simply the orientation they don't get to choose, interferes with their ability to perform all aspects of their job fully, then they can be discriminated against. For example, an openly and clearly gay man working as a server af a restraunt may make customers feel uncomfortable. In this case it is their behavior, not directly their orientation, that can be discriminated against. I think I should be discriminated against for my religion if I choose to say that my religion means I can proselyte freely to unwilling customers.
@8ZH59GG3yrs3Y
No, there are only two genders which are genetically not psychologically determined and we should address gender identity as a mental health issue because acting like you can change your gender can mess people up for life.
