Six-Figure Fines for Gender Pronouns?

 

The left used to congratulate itself on being the “Free Speech Movement.” It used to celebrate the rebellious anarchists who used obscene words and forced sexually graphic images and conversations into the public sphere. Conservatives were the ones who insisted on decency in the public discourse and demanded regulation, both within the private sector and from the federal government, to protect the public from that obscenity.

But now, as the world turns upside down on sexuality and gender, leftists are becoming the ones who censor and fine. Instead of a Hays Code for decency, there’s a Gays Code. Breaking the new language rules of the LGBT lobby can be very dear. Literally. 

Washington Post blogger Eugene Volokh revealed that the New York City Commission on Human Rights has issued guidance that employers, landlords, professionals and businesses can now be fined up to $250,000 for not using an individual’s preferred name, pronoun or title, under the New York City Human Rights Law, “regardless of the individual’s sex assigned at birth, anatomy, gender, medical history, appearance, or the sex indicated on the individual’s identification.”

  1. I have THE perfect gender neutral pronoun that should work for both the mentally unhinged perverts, and these rest of us who are still sane. We don't need to invent a new word. All we need to do is combine the traditional words for male, female, and neutral; she he and it. If we combine them (s)he, (h)e and (it), we get s/h/it. And that kiddies is what I think of all of this nonsense, shit!

    BTW, Sex is NOT assigned at birth. It is stating the obvious. Again the unhinged left is playing word games. New York City, on my list to stay the hell away from.

  3. NYC has its ups and downs. While Giuliani was mayor things were better. Also there was a period I was in yeshiva in NY and that was a very good period.
