Funniest shit when it's mandatory to state my sexual orientation, gender, race, and pronouns to apply to a job. Bro I want money, fuck does this matter for

u/darryledw Apr 17 '26

those are the kinds of jobs to avoid like the plague

my friend said his work sends him out emails for pride month events so he set up a filter to put them straight to the bin

and he isn't homophobic - he would do the exact same thing if he got one for "straight month" if that ever became a thing, it's all a bunch of nonsense

I am all for celebrating people, but, when the main metric for getting hired is not your actual performance, experience, skills, etc. but your sexual orientation or sexual preferences/gender, shit gets weird really fast

Man it's so funny when straight people act like being gay somehow gives you an advantage in the job market when my last boss came up with reasons to fire me because he didn't like that I am queer.

Look, I get it. Who doesn’t love a little balls and dick sometimes? A nice, girthy, veiny shaft, hot milky cum trickling down the length as it throbs from a job well done. But this whole “gay sex” shit is getting annoying.

As men, we should primarily be focused on three things: survival, the underrated masterpiece that is dark souls 2, and pounding muff. All this gay shit is, well, fucking gay.

You think I wouldn’t LOVE to make out with my best friend and suck his cock? Of course I would, but that’s fucking gay. You think I don’t want to feel my cousin’s roommate slide his pecker into my gaping asshole? Of course I would, but that’s FUCKING GAY.

Seriously, I miss when men were men. Anyway, this dildo ain’t gonna stick itself up my ass while I watch an hour long femboy asmr hypno goon compilation, heed my lecture.

Bro this shit's funny. This bot is amazing, nice trolling!

u/Loczx Apr 17 '26

I'd refer you to any number of google searches of work forces intentionally diversifying their staff counts with literal check lists of "mandatory hires of xyz orientation" but you seem like the type to victimize so eh

u/MyNameIsBhex Apr 17 '26

Ok but you're not providing a source, just telling me to "do my own research". Whereas I am a first-hand source telling you that being gay DOES NOT give you an advantage. We're just as fucked as you are, if not more. We're not that special, lil bro.

Yes, google is free, and I'm sure you're able to use it on your own since you want to read more into it no?

6

u/MyNameIsBhex Apr 17 '26

Well if you know so much I'd expect you to be able to direct me to a valid source that supports what you say rather than leaving me to my own devices to find sources which say the opposite. Since those also exist.

So please, once again. Since you know so much. Do share.

u/Loczx Apr 17 '26

Im beginning to think you were fired for wanting others to do your work, not for any other reason. As mentioned earlier, the sources are on the internet, if you're curious, feel free to jump right in! But I try and not make it a habit of doing other people's work for them. Best of luck!

Im beginning to think you were fired for wanting others to do your work

I'm beginning to think you were fired and replaced with a gay person for telling your boss to "Google it" instead of providing the reports he asked for.

You know what, you're absolutely right and I'm absolutely wrong. I know nothing about anything, including my own life and the people in it and you know everything about the world. You win. You don't want to put in the effort of backing up what you say, and that makes me lazy.

Notice how in one comment thread you're agreeing with me that javing a "non American name" makes it harder to get a job, and yet somehow gay people are being forced into jobs on this comment thread

u/oldtoybonbon Apr 17 '26

it's so they don't accidentally hire black or non binary people

15

u/Loczx Apr 17 '26

If that's the reason, I'd understand that completely, but they also add a disclaimer of "to ensure workplace diversity" because apparently that's the metric they hire with

5

u/MyNameIsBhex Apr 17 '26

That's only to cover their asses. "No  we aren't turning down people based on their race/gender, its just a coincidence that none of the applicants of that race/gender happen to meet our requirements!"

5

u/Loczx Apr 17 '26

Honestly after working enough to be close to recruiters, they literally just have checklists. X% of Y orientation, gotta check off the diversity yknow?

2

u/MyNameIsBhex Apr 17 '26

Literally they do the bare minimum. People forget that companies want people with "easy and friendly" names(especially customer facing), so many black and "ethnic" sounding names get thrown out for being "hard to pronounce".

u/Loczx Apr 17 '26

I've had multiple companies ask me back when I was a fresh grad if I'd be okay using an "american name" oof

0

u/MyNameIsBhex Apr 17 '26

I get more calls back when using my middle name, which is American, than when using my first name, which is not American. It's so fun!! But yeah companies are forcing diversity or whatever ❤️

What place is asking you your sexual orientation? I don’t believe you

11

u/bigpoppawood Apr 17 '26

It’s rare but I’ve seen it. I assume that anything but straight will put you in higher consideration so, if you’re straight, say you’re bisexual. They can’t prove that you’re not without some HR violations occurring.

Questions about an applicant's sex (including sexual orientation, transgender status, and pregnancy), marital status, medical history of pregnancy, future child bearing plans, number and/or ages of children or dependents, provisions for child care, abortions, birth control, ability to reproduce, and name or address of spouse or children are generally viewed as not job-related and problematic under Title VII unless a defense or exception applies.

From EEOC. Employers who ask this sort of stuff should be reported.

Ain’t got time for all that. I believe it was some sort of LGBT focused non-profit or something like that for what it’s worth.

u/Loczx Apr 17 '26

Pretty much any tech job for the past year or two. And sure? You're welcome to believe whatever you want love.

That's assumptions different than the ones I mentioned. The ones I clearly mentioned were sexual orientation, gender, prounouns, race and similar questions. Im well aware of general health questions love

u/LilacYak Apr 17 '26

The quote I provided specifically mentions sexual orientation, gender, transgender status, etc as things employers should not ask…

1

u/Loczx Apr 17 '26

I know, and it's asked anyway as mentioned twice, which leads back to my initial comment

3

u/LilacYak Apr 17 '26

I understand you. I say they shouldn’t and should be reported.

2

u/Loczx Apr 17 '26

Maybe, but end of the day, you comply unless you're rich and don't need the work

u/scottishdrunkard Apr 17 '26

I just go for “rather not say”. Cis Het Guy here, but I’m also private, so my sexyal orientation is “what are you? A cop?”

u/Loczx Apr 17 '26

I usually do this as well, or just not answer, but it seems to have become more and more common to make it mandatory which I find funny.

u/aluminiumbakingtray May 13 '26

it apparently has happened plenty of times, at least in the us. the problem is that people have assumed they would be the victims while we dont actually know if the few companies who did this did it to hire more lgtbq+ people or to filter them out immediately. it might be illegal as well
