A worthwhile quote from the net (author unknown)

*Employment anti-discrimination is not about making anyone "believe" anything-- it is about protecting people from being fired (or not being hired) regardless of their abilities or qualifications, merely because they are transgender.  If such legislation is enacted, transphobes will retain their right to believe whatever they want, but they will not be allowed to use those beliefs to justify discrimination or workplace harassment. Anti-discrimination laws are not "thought crime" laws.
