If I’m sexually oriented to dress as the opposite sex, why should they discriminate against someone who’s sexually oriented to be into leather and bondage or who’s turned on by being an exhibitionist and wants to go nude at work? If a cross-dresser can get their rocks off at work it’s discriminatory to say people of other alternative orientations can’t.

Someone should go to a Dem’s office or call them asking for bondage and nudist rights. They’ll probably be told, we’ll get to that eventually once it’s viable to do so and still be reelected.

And the fact that this issue wouldn't get them thrown out of office is the problem. The lack of common sense with the public and the easy way they're manipulated into doing anything once someone cries "discrimination" is the problem.
