This is the case with virtually all “conditions”. If having a “condition” confers any social proof, any bonus resources, or any excuse for bad behavior, then many bad actors will claim to have that condition.
Fat people claim to have genetic or medical conditions when they are really just lazy. Unemployed people on benefits claim there are no jobs when they just want more free money. Everyone has a “good excuse” for everything now. That’s what happens when you normalize mental illness and elevate unfalsifiable feelings as sacred.
Which is great for them. There's an opportunity and they are using it to their advantage. But I'm not sure why I have to take part in that fantasy in order to get done what needs done.
I'd go so far as to say expecting it is more time consuming and needless that it being preferential.
The only times I would ever need to know someone's gender and sexual orientation is if I was wanting to be intimate with them or treat them in a medical capacity. It really doesn't matter to me outside of those context and if someone thinks it does they are imposing on my creed which is wrong.
But, for the moment at least, this goes all the way up to the board of directors across various companies as a fad which is somehow a good thing to be part of?!?
