Transgender worker suing Nike for $1.1 million cites pronoun abuses

According to a civil lawsuit filed this week, Nike and Mainz Brady Group, a staffing firm that hired workers for Nike, discriminated against computer engineer Jazz Lyles, who identifies as transmasculine and prefers the pronouns they/them/their. The complaint was filed with Multnomah Circuit Court in Oregon.
During Lyles' tenure at Nike — from May 2017 to September 2018 — the engineer was repeatedly "misgendered" by coworkers, the complaint said. While Lyles notified management about the issue multiple times, the companies allegedly failed to implement any policies, procedures and trainings around the use of gender pronouns in the workplace.

I hope whatever it is wins.
We as a society need to see how ridiculous this all is and Nike has been at the forefront of it.
Just do it you transmasculine hero

On the one hand, Nike deserves this. On the other, I couldn’t care less about some stupid pronoun usage.

Theyll probably publicly settle for 2.2 million. That's a drop in their ocean and is cheap PR.

I thought only in the South are transgenders mistreated

On one hand, screw Nike. On the other, it’s absurd to demand that the rest of the world conform to your psychosis.

When will this country say frick you to the mentally ill .05% that tries to pull this bullshite? Maybe these pussified companies getting sued by the same frick ups they try to promote will help.

Lol frick that

I say frick your pronouns and if you entertain that madness you are weak. I hope it wins though because Nike is part of the PC problem.

Jazz Lyles, who identifies as transmasculine
Is that a man who wants to act like a woman, or be a woman, or is that a woman that wants to act like a man, or be a man?
Also, They/them are plural. Apparently there is only one deranged person suing. Does he/she also think he/she is a crowd?
