It seems most employers have not embraced the TQ despite their corporate virtue signalling. Recruiting managers are giving the They/Thems a swerve.

Non binary = me me me on steroids. Most bosses just want the work doing so they can profit off their sweat, blood and tears. Can't earn company money from just tears.

Goodness, I can't imagine why employers might want to swerve attention seeking naval gazers.

Maybe they've been following the various employment tribunals surrounding gender and decided it's not worth the risk?

I doubt it as she’s based in the US so I suspect the survey was too. My suspicion is that the managers assume people claiming a NB identity are going to be difficult to work with

Wait... she added her pronouns after reading this research that showed it biased people against her? Some people. Tchuh.

Yep, she’s really sticking it to the man by…..disadvantaging herself

I’m not surprised either. I should imagine employers see it as a big red flag and a HR nightmare galloping towards them.

I’m not surprised!
