Refusing service because of political party.
RE: Refusing service because of political party.
Quote:To me gender identity simply doesn't rise to the level of race or ethnicity. A gender identity is defined by desires (not chosen) and the types of behaviors manifest in response to those desires (chosen). You cannot tell if someone has a certain gender orientation unless they tell you or telegraph it by doing something like a public display of affection. Race and ethnicity (to a lesser extent) are visibly objective, cannot be hidden, or changed. I could pretend to be gay but I could never pretend to be black, for example. I am NOT saying that gay people should have to hide or deny expressing who they are, only that there is a difference, maybe not of kind but most certainly of degree. Perhaps gender identity / sexual orientation should be a protected class but the case is not nearly as compelling as race or ethnicity.
