New York City Lets You Choose From 31 Different Gender Identities



Individuals living in New York City can choose from a minimum of 31 different gender identities, many of which allow them to fluctuate between some version or combination of male or female identities.

Businesses that don’t respect and accommodate an individual’s chosen gender identity risk incurring six-figure fines under rules implemented by the city’s Commission on Human Rights.

The list of protected gender identities is available online and includes options such as “gender bender,” “two spirit,” “third sex,” “androgynous,” “gender gifted,” and “pangender.” A city official speaking on background confirmed to The Daily Caller that all of the listed identities are protected by the city’s anti-discrimination laws, but said that the list was not exhaustive.

The city does not provide definitions of the various gender identities, but TheDC was able to define several of them from glossaries provided online by the University of Wisconsin and the University of California Berkeley.

Someone who identifies as “genderqueer,” for example, is a “person whose gender identity is neither man nor woman, is between or beyond genders, or is some combination of genders.”

A “gender bender” is someone “who bends, changes, mixes, or combines society’s gender conventions by expressing elements of masculinity and femininity together.”

Similarly, someone who is “gender fluid” is a person “whose gender identification and presentation shifts, whether within or outside of societal, gender-based expectations.”

If someone self-identifies as “androgynous,” it means they are “appearing and/or identifying as neither man nor woman, presenting a gender either mixed or neutral.”

“Two spirit” individuals are Native Americans “who have attributes of both men and women, have distinct gender and social roles in their tribes, and are often involved with mystical rituals (shamans).”

If someone is “pangender,” their “gender identity is comprised of all or many gender expressions.”

The full list of gender identities can be viewed online in a document provided by the city’s Commission on Human Rights.

The city’s gender identity guidance was issued in December but has been the subject of ongoing media attention in the past week. As noted by law professor Eugene Volokh, businesses can be fined up to six figures for knowingly using the “wrong” pronouns to refer to a customer or employee.

Seth Hoy, the Human Rights Commission’s press secretary, told TheDC that the guidance was issued to “ensure that every transgender individual in New York City is treated with the respect and dignity they deserve” but assured that that “accidentally” using the wrong pronouns “will not result in a fine.” His full statement is below:

The Commission’s legal guidance on gender identity protections under the NYC Human Rights Law addresses situations in which individuals intentionally and repeatedly target transgender and gender non-conforming people. Accidentally misusing a transgender person’s preferred pronoun is not a violation of the law and will not result in a fine. The Commission issued this guidance last year so that employers and individuals understand what the law says and to ensure that every transgender individual in New York City is treated with the respect and dignity they deserve.

Hell why stop at 31? Let's Heinz 57 it...make up some more

thats only 24...

4 of these 31, I never heard of.
To hell with it.... pointless to even look them up!

Next stop on New York's list will be a variety of Bestially & Children & Inanimate objects... & Extraterrestrials

Does it really matter once it goes past 2?

not to me, but female or woman wasn't on that list...plus, it's amazing how many different ways they can term the same exact thing...

Insanity on Steroids!

You know the libs DO love wordplay...

can the world just come to an end already....I dunno if I can take much more of this type of ridiculousness....u know what...I've decided I'm a dinosaur and if u don't respect that I'm a dinosaur Obama will send lawyers after you...as a matter of fact I'm a cross dressing dinosaur and demand that im allowed to use any bathroom I want and the taxpayers have to pay my rent because I'm a dinosaur now...can we all as a society just simply return to reality please...enough shenanigans already

Oops, sorry that last pic was huge.

Only slightly off topic, just wanted to share a pic of a tranny in the bathroom.

I think we are going to have to end up just treating all men and women as exactly the same in all public spaces; and then maybe we can stop all this gender craziness.

If you don't want to share a bathroom with whoever, then you'll have to use one of the private rooms.

guess they all want their Own Restrooms now?

We should NOT have to change anything!... for .03% of the population!

If anything.. It could of been for certain places to ADD a bathroom for them by a certain date, or PAY a fine.

Welcome!
Welcome, one and all!

Step right up, to witness...
Obonzo's Flaming Circus of Freaks!

Yeah, I wasn't trying to say what is right or wrong, but just make a comment on how things seem to be going. If you look at the last couple decades of LGBT rights and activism, and the way most liberals operate, and the opinion polls of university students, and the impact of twitter and tubmlr and such.... well these people and these beliefs aren't going anywhere. I honestly believe they are going to win. And if they are going to win, I'd rather live in a more gender-blind world than the bizarrely gender obsessed world they seem to want.

Some of these folks are basically playing Dungeons and Dragons, or some kind of weird LARP, with a mix of oppression olympics. It gives them a sense of purpose in their otherwise purposeless existence. Its the meme-propagation machinery here is really strong and compelling, since its so easy for people to find a sense of purpose and a feeling of 'specialness' by embracing the Cult of the SJW.

It was just a general vent, of disgust.
I am sick if reading about it, but at the same time... I want to know wth is going on
