Florida cops receive transgender sensitivity training to avoid
2015-09-08
[Right Scoop] Cops in St. Petersburg seemed rather perplexed and bewildered as they were given sensitivity training on how to avoid "misgendering" transgender persons.
Might as well enjoy the classroom time, and the lunch.
What I find odd is that they are being told that it doesn't matter what the name is on a person's license, or what their gender is -- they need to respect the wishes of what the person wants to be called, not whatever gender God made them. But the case they cite as the cuase for this training is when police mis-identified the gender of a dead transgender dude. But how were they supposed to know what gender he preferred? He was dead. He couldn't tell them. But I guess *I'M* the intolerant monster here in need of sensitivity training.
