Not a regular poster on this board but I do read it.

Saw this during my morning Linked in scroll. Not a big discussion on it yet but questions as to the legality of it.

No words for this, just 🤦‍♀️

Wtf? Do they have a box to tick or something? What on earth could a man who identifies as a woman bring to the role that a woman couldn't? Or a man? That's just insane. And yes, is it legal? Wonder how they could justify that.

It would help even up their Gender Pay Gap stats maybe? Without actually having to employ a woman in a SM role and pay her appropriately.

The type-oh in the "particularly interested" (no space) makes me question if it's genuine.

This is where language is so important. Like you, I don't think that advert applies to me, because not only am I not qualified for it, but I simply am a woman, I do not "identify as a woman" any more than I "identify as 5ft 1". It's just reality.

Whereas the writers of that advert probably think it means women and men who identify as women.

My mistake, it says identity as female. But the same logic applies.

Oh! I did do a quick scroll down to ensure not a repeat but didn't see that!
