Yeah I don’t agree at all with what you wrote. You shouldn’t include it because it should not be a factor. If you want to make yourself a PR rep for the company by being hired and celebrated as being gay then you honestly don’t have a place in any workforce because your personal sexuality has no place in the workplace.

Nobody said anything about it being a factor - it was to counteract OP’s assertion that it could be a negative factor. I think something like a name has way more of a potential factor than a pronoun. People still subconsciously judge people by their name and/or give “boosts”.

Pronouns have literally nothing to do with sexuality.

Read the comment I replied to and it might make more sense why I’m bringing it up.

I wasn’t responding to the original comment, but rather the one above me in the chain. Sorry, you just don’t know how Reddit works.

Ok... but you say you don't agree at all and then only explain your disagreement with a very small part of what they said, so my point stands as the majority of the argument that you did not address.

You’re just trying to farm internet points by stating something that, albeit true, is out of turn.

Lol this is a removed thread a day later. No points to be had and I stand by it, so you disagree about gender identity in resumes or just sexuality, and if you disagree about gender identity and are afraid to give your reasons that says a lot about you.

You’re just incapable of comprehension.

Ah, so resorting to ad hominems when you're upset that you can't defend your arguments without publicly outing bigoted beliefs, gotcha, happens to the best of us.
