Surely bravery underlies the punishments or dismissals which reward acting according to society's norms. Or maybe fear drives profits.

Or, y’know, the Government implemented laws which are intended to protect a minority which doesn’t have another option under capitalism.

Come out and say it - “I would prefer you dead than have to work alongside you”.

Stop shouting it from the rooftops and you'll be accepted however you present yourself. That's your option, but you refuse to take that one.

You're continually bashing your sexuality and gender identity politics into people's faces and then complaining that they don't like you. Nobody else does this.

If I work with you, I would prefer to not know about your deeply personal issues at all.

You would know my deeply personal issues only by how I dress. I don’t shout about shit at work, I do my job (better than most could), and still I get harassed.

I wish people did see it as a deeply personal issue and felt embarrassed about bringing it up, or trying to get their fingers into my healthcare as in the rest of this thread.

You cannot have it both ways - attempt to tell me to shut up when defending myself, while trying to tell me you know better than my doctor and me about my healthcare and gender.

And if your accusation were in the workplace, you win automatically. Good job seizing the means, I guess.
