Transgender Woman Forced To Work As A Man

TSA was sued and and to pay for emotional damages, and restore back pay - if I heard it right. This was a clear example of a transwoman being harassed so she would leave. Her superiors should have put her into a better position to do her job, they didn't have to out her. Just because a woman was born in a male body and has not fully transitioned, does not make her a man.

But preaching to the choir here.

wow.

people are pretty dumb... why would anyone think that forcing a woman to dress & work as a man would be OK? SO STUPID.

I honestly can't even imagine that conversation.

Boss: Hi Ashley. You look lovely, today.

Ashley: Oh, thanks! Why'd you call me in here?

Boss: OH! Yeah, well... it turns out we want you to wear a male wig to work.

Ashley: Ummm....

Boss: Yes... and um... we want you to work in the men's line... as a man.

Ashley: But I'm a woman.

Boss: Uh... My hands are tied!!! Sorry, ma'am.

Ashley: *sigh*

or maybe a letter:

Dear Miss Ashley Yang,

In order to comply with section 23a of the TSA Employee's Manual, you need to pretend to be a man at work. Please buy a wig that gives the illusion of a crew cut. Failure to do so will result in your immediate termination.

Sincerely,

TSA Bureaucrats

...Ridiculous.

It was fortunate that there was a organization available and willing to take legal action. I doubt that anyone can really make up for all of the pain and humiliation she suffered during those two years.

Idiots.

Last year TSA fired a woman for being a witch, and their district manager was involved in the cover up, including falsifying records of her supposed misconduct so no one would know. Several people lost their jobs over it. The apparent reason is because she wouldn't stop complaining about harassment from her co-workers and her immediate superiors.

These people are complete morons, and I have not yet come up with a theory regarding why TSA policy is so bigoted.

May you find what you seek,

Landra

Wow that is messed up... sadly I think being in texas any work I get I might be forced to dress male too so idk.. :( Work is so hard to come by so they may think they can. Maybe that's why people do it, cause they know they can be picky with who they hire so getting a job they push you around more. Idk just a theory.

Kristina is one of my hero's! TLC does some really amazing work!

Dawn

Kristina is indeed. And we know that first hand Dawn. I finally responded because I don't want this thread to be about fear but about solutions and what we have going for our community and the people fighting for us, which includes each one of us. Ashley is a very impressive and strong woman.

      happy trans birthday! I can't speak personally on the subject, but I hope hormones bring you the changes you're looking for <3

      That’s super healthy, to see that something that becomes common has less effect on you and that you are able to decipher these feelings.   Sadly, this trend tends to only deaden good feelings as we tend not to let bad feelings attenuate the same way.   I have noticed less euphoria, but still feel the dysphorias that I have. Sometimes the good sneaks in and reminds me, but often time it’s just me seeing myself in the mirror and being comfortable about what I see when embracing my realized self. I may not get the same buzz I once did, but I don’t feel incongruous when looking at a more “drab” reflection.    Wishing you strength, you are amazing!

      Congratulations! and Happy Trans Birthday @LittleSam! That is such a BIG milestone.  I can still remember walking out of my clinic with my first HRT presciption.  I was on Cloud-9.  Wishing you all the best in the start of your new Journey!

      maebe thank you I try to be. I thank God for blessings, try to share them, beg forgiveness for my shortcomings n vow to try to do better...2 priests have said no, God doesn't condemn you just for being trans...but apparently evangelicals do   I shall vtry dear thank you  
    • MaeBe
      Meet him at the being good to others part of Christianity. At the heart of it, there are excellent tenets of the faith. Those that condemn are judging, Jesus would have us be selfless; stone casting and all that. Are you a good person? Are you putting good into the world? If your gender is an issue for God, let God judge. In the mortal realm, let your actions be heard. 
    • missyjo
      and just fi sweeten it..I'm catholic n he hasn't been for years..he's evangelical..whatever that is

      Let’s stick to cite-able fact. Most of my posts have been directly in relation to LGBTQ+ rights as it pertains to P2025 and I have drawn direct links between people, their quotes, and their agenda. I have made reference to the cronyism that P2025 would entail as well, by gutting, not cutting, broad swathes of government and replacing it with “conservative warriors” (I can get you the direct quote, but rest assured it’s a quote). All this does is constantly force the cogs to be refitted, not their movement. To say that agencies have directly defied a President is a bit much, the EPA did what Trump told them to do at the direct harm to the environment, the department of agriculture did the same by enacting the administrations forced move to KC which decimated the USDA.      How about Betsy DeVoss for Education? Or Bannon for anything? What about the revolving Chief of Staff position that Trump couldn’t stay filled? Or the Postmaster General, who did much to make the USPS worse?   Let’s not mix politics with racism, sexism, or any other ism. Because Trump made mainly white, male, appointments—many of them not, arguably, people fit for service—or unwilling to commit to term. I can argue this because, again, he’s up for election and will do what he did before (and more of the same, his words).   Please delineate how the selected diversity appointments have negatively affected the US, other than being black, women, or queer? Representation matters and America benefits when its people are inspired and empowered.
