You should be embarrassed that I need to explain this to you.

Systems of government confer rights.
Rights are not distributed by biology, and biology does not vote.
Because biology is not a system of government.

But maybe you knew that already, or you wouldn't have put "vote" in quotes.

I CAN see some people claiming to be gay after the fact.. just to raise a stink and try to get some compensation.

After all, some people do fake disability in order to get benifits... why not fake being queer?
I imagine a small percentage of people might do that, just like a small percentage of people are already claiming to have been fired for being a woman, being too old, etc.

There are always going to be abusers of the system. That is not a reason to not protect the rights of a group of people.

The difference is that age and gender are very apparent, and stated by candidates on an application form. But homosexuality can be hidden.

How do you propose that employers be made aware of whether potential employees have homosexual tendencies?

And if they are made aware and still offer that homosexual a job, how can they later be accused of discrimination against homosexuals!

Face it Cyn - this Bill is unworkable.
