Here we go again - Advocate advocates throwing the trans poplation under the bus

[MMarieN]

The Advocate has set up a poll asking if people would support ENDA if gender identity was cut out of it. I find it deplorable that they would even ask, but as long as it is up there we should try to overwhelm them with NO votes.

You can also leave comments below the poll as well.

So far it's 91% against with 186 votes.  So I guess that the voice of the comunity is pretty much in our favor.

And the Advocate is taking an extreme beating in the comments as well for even bringing up such a survey.

Ahhh, what the heck; I'm used to being ostracized.

So, in fact the headline is 180 degrees off base and misleading?

Make that 92% now

Actually...
A lot of people probably wouldn't care if gender identity was included or not.. As long as they themselves would be covered by the rules of protection, it's fine, by most people.

And this poll doesn't even remotely advocate anything. It just asks this question: Do you care enough to not support the bill? (yes/no) That's all there's to it.
