Where I work people are treated well.  Whatever goes on in their personal life is is a whole separate thing that doesn't involve us.  We recently had a guy come in dresses as a woman, talked like a man, had an adams apple, but excellent taste in womens clothing and accessories.  Same treatment as everyone else.

It's a scam. If you say no thanks, they'll threaten to list you as a anti-trans business.

Just print off a trans people flag, put it up by your business door, take pic, take flag down, email pic to them with the explanation that you've already received trans friendly training from a local affinity group.

Put pronouns in your email signature to really sell it.

I saw a commercial where discover now has a card for LGBTQWTFBBQ people.

Mastercard announced on Monday, June 17, its True Name card initiative, which will allow for chosen names to appear on the front of consumers' cards.

Many members in the LGBTQ community, particularly trans and non-binary people, have run into issues purchasing items with a credit card and been faced with discrimination. In fact, Mastercard shared research that found nearly one-third of individuals who have shown IDs with a name or gender that did not match their presentation reported negative experiences, including being harassed, denied services and/or attacked.


Mastercard did some research into its network's rules to understand if there were requirements for individuals to include their legal names on their cards and found that there weren't. This spurred the True Name card initiative.


"It first starts with their name, that's who they are, that's their identity," Randall Tucker, chief inclusion officer for Mastercard, tells CNBC Make It. With Mastercard True Name "you can choose your name on your credit card, your debit card and your prepaid card, which is amazing."


Mastercard is hoping this initiative will spark conversation within the industry and is urging other businesses to apply these standards, so financial products can reflect their owners' true identity.


"We're paying it forward, not because it's in vogue, but because it's who we are as an organization," Tucker says.


Mastercard plans to have True Name cards on the market by early 2020.

And in the other thread we make fun of Putin because he's short.

Not only does gender mean nothing but so does having a legal identification. So the answer isn't to require legal names, it's to allow people to conjure up fake realities.

Your mistake is believing that fraction of a percent is the one pushing these things and not the entire leftist/progressive block that will use any cause to destroy not only our culture, but the stability and foundation of the country.

In other words, it should be obvious by now these smaller populations are mere tools for the larger movement that's happening and their goal. Has anyone here not noticed how many white people participated in the rioting, especially in the northwest? Has anyone not noticed what comprises antifa, or what agenda is pushed on college campuses, controlled mostly by white heterosexual people?

The fake realities helps salve their self esteem from distress when they notice that reality doesn't match their delusion.

So they keep demanding more and more workarounds to try to get reality to match their delusion, or at least force and intimidate other people into pretending to agree with their delusion.

Even in the Middle East this is what I see. FYI apple auto correct makes Middle East proper but not apple. Gotta be some hierarchical ranking in that.

If a male (XY for clarity in clown world) employee dared remark about how he is so proud to reeeallly like sex with women (XX) he would likely be canned instead of celebrated. Pun not intended.

This is our ceo for the last year. Carol Tomé. Hope I got the fancy accent right. Keeps touting better not bigger. Seems right in line with build back better.

I know 2 people (male) who somehow decided they were women. One used to be in a band with me and was married with kids at the time, so I did not suspect anything, the other was more a friend of friends but seemed nice enough and was on motorcycle rides that I was also on. Didn't see it coming for either.

Haven't spoken with either directly since they came out. Not by any decision on my part; there was just no reason to. Am FB friends with both so will occasionally see posts by them, but not very often. Like you, I would just treat them like anyone else as best I could. I don't know what I would do about the urge I have to tell them that they have a software problem, not a hardware problem, which is how I see it.

"Harassed?" "Attacked?" I’m going to go ahead and call bullshit on that.
I’m sure their definition of what constitutes harassment/attack is much different than a normal persons.
Now, denied service? I don’t doubt it. You look like a man, but your card has a woman’s name (or vice versa), that’s going to raise red flags in a retail setting.
That’s common sense, not "transphobia."

What you’re talking about is just being a POS. No amount of policy, meetings, or factual evidence of the benefits of being a halfway decent person is going to change a POS from being a POS. Never going to change. Sure there are people that organize this stuff that genuinely mean well. However, you and I both know that it has very little to do with caring about the victims and everything about pushing an agenda. Especially from a Fortune 500 company.
