MANHATTAN — When Manhattan city commissioners last week authorized research into adding sexual orientation and gender identity to the city's list of protected classes, the process hung up on one point. What exactly is "gender identity" and can it be defined for purposes of law?
The city administration, with help of the city attorney's office, drafted the proposed amendment to the city's discrimination ordinance. But city administrators chose not to define gender identity in the proposed amendment because there was a question of whether commissioners wanted to include it along with sexual orientation.
(bump)
Wouldn't that be "Expected dress norms, grooming and behavior of one's biological gender?"
As in "It shall be illegal to deny employment or promotion to any person because their behavior, attire, or grooming do not adhere to the expected norms of their biological gender."
Would that work? can y'all add to it?
