No - I view it similar to if someone mispronounces your name (which wouldn’t be a hate crime)

like

No, that is not a hate crime by any means

No - but I see this is the UK. We don’t criminalize name calling in the US. That being said, misgendering is actionable harassment/discrimination in the employment law realm now.

likefunny

Absolutely not. I’ve seen worse behaviour and things that would be considered hate crime vs misgendering someone.

Since I’m clearly in the minority here — I’ll just say that if the person on the receiving end does go so far as to prosecute it, I’d imagine that repeated, intentional misgendering is certainly harassment that would justify and constitute a hate crime.

This is like the McDonald’s coffee lawsuit. We joke about all of these ridiculous sounding lawsuits but the reality is that actually going through with a case is pretty difficult— you have to show damages and i imagine if someone did want to press charges they’d be in a pretty tough spot.

No it isn’t a crime. It’s not illegal in a criminal sense to call names or tease someone, this would include intentional misgendering. Repeated verbal assaults on someone may ultimately result in a civil action if there is some kind of tangible harm, but this is a country of free speech, no matter how offensive it may be.

Never - It is ridiculous to believe that addressing someone with the incorrect pronoun is an atrocity.

What if it wasn't intentional? What if someone wants to be referred to as some unusual gender that only they would know?

It’s not a hate crime.

No.

Im working at a big multi-product company and we're having 5 dedicated product teams, however, teams are working in silos. Each team's has its own process, design system, technology etc. We identified that most of the teams use and need components that were already conceptualised, designed and developed, for our other products, and we are starting to create a global set of components, a global design system that we will use on all our products. What is your approach?

Any Deloitte folks going to DU this week?

I know I will get hated by saying this. Do you think gay pride events are portraying a bad image about our community to public? (Drugs, sexual, inappropriate clothes, and sometimes like strip clubs- some parts). I know it is right to present us but I just feel it is not the right way to show who we are. I wish the pride where everybody can connect in a more friendly way (outdoor game- team work, dance, drink something not too sexual.) there are some good parts of pride tho. Any opinions?
