DP reported for Anti Trans at work

[goingback]

dP is a retail manager and yesterday one of his student weekend staff asked if the company will follow M&S and allow staff to show their pronouns . He replied that he didn't know but suspected that not many people will want to do it and will most definitely not be forced. The worker said that as a CIS man he is privileged and should understand gender rights better . He asked what she meant by CIS and she said that he was not a trans man , he stated he was a man and she has went away , told other staff that he is anti-trans and also emailed HR.
To say he is pissed off is an understatement but he now expects to have to explain himself at work. He has said to me that surely he gets to decide what how he describes himself and i agree. Can anything happen to him?

She's the type of 'woke' that makes trans people look bad. She shouldn't be responding like that to him when he didn't know if their colleagues would want to share their pronouns.

Glad HR took him seriously, and he knows what to do in future with questions like that.

I agree with all of that. It is reassuring to hear that there are HR Dept’s that take the wider workforce into consideration, rather than dancing to the tune of an authoritarian, virtue-signalling minority.

OP glad to hear it's not being progressed. As for always ensuring witnessed conversations in a retail store. It's so much effort to tread on eggshells around this individual but it's a sensible move.
