Concerns about misgendering dogs
Ms Chivers, a lesbian from Northamptonshire who works in adult social care, said: “On this particular occasion, we had been discussing gender-neutral toilets and I said I wasn’t comfortable using them because statistics show women are eight times more likely to be raped in one.
We don’t know who the “we” there are because the Telegraph never says. The conversation went on to climate protests and Nike clothes and Dylan Mulvaney modeling sports bras and mocking women.
“Afterwards, I was contacted by my managers who demanded to know what I had said. I was then told by the recruitment agencies that I use to apply for jobs that they would not find me work until conclusion of the investigation.”
The Telegraph never explains how and why the managers got involved.
Ms Chivers added: “I do have to bite my tongue in a lot of these training sessions, I once attended an ‘Alphabet Soup’ session run by Cambridgeshire County Council when a member of staff expressed concerns about people misgendering dogs.
“It is getting ridiculous. None of this improves the social work we do. Like a lot of people, I’m fed up with this obsession about gender ideology and just want to get on with my job.”
That is indeed a major part of the problem with gender ideology: it keeps using up all the oxygen. It keeps interrupting absolutely everything in order to talk about itself.
A spokesman for Leicestershire County Council said: “We’re committed to equalities, diversity and inclusion and like other organisations, will take action if we believe legislation or professional standards have been breached.
“The matter has been referred to Social Work England. The recruitment agency has been informed so that they may consider the issues raised.”
Blah blah blah – vapid meaningless generalities instead of grappling with facts and specifics. Somebody said somebody did something so someone else said somebody is being investigated to find out if somebody did something unapproved. You’re welcome.
