This is complete insanity.

Residents of New York City can now select from among 31 different gender identities, and 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 identities includes options such as “gender bender,” “two spirit,” “third sex,” “androgynous,” “gender gifted,” and “pangender.” The city does not provide a guide to or definitions of the gender identities.

A city official told The Daily Caller on background that the list of gender identities are all protected by the city’s anti-discrimination laws. The source also said the list is not exhaustive.

Exhausting perhaps, but not exhaustive.

The gender identity “guidance” was issued by NYC in December 2015.

Seth Hoy, the Human Rights Commission’s press secretary gave the following statement to The Daily Caller:

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.

Because someone who demands that businesses accommodate the “gender gifted” or “two spirit” gender identity certainly deserves respect and dignity.
