My guess, no one cared much about it but transgenders are known for being on the narcissist side so it may have been more inside the head of the person. He/She made a lot of noise until it became a liability and they fired him/her/it/whatever.

Honestly is amazons fault for hiring them in the first place, just having transgenders in the workforce and expect them to behave like your average guy is ridiculous. They may not like it but it is a mental disorder.

Last May, a CNET investigation found at least seven lawsuits filed by women in California, Pennsylvania and New Jersey claiming they were fired by Amazon after disclosing their pregnancy.

This guy/girl saw an opportunity and took it. They aren't stupid.

Eh, ruining your body for life in order not to be fired is pretty stupid.

From a legal perspective they are using a recent spate of lawsuits to 'jump on' since now precedent is set for just settling.

With all the negative press attached I'm amazed they didn't just quietly settle. Legally this is the perfect time to sue, regardless of whether they were smart to begin with.

If this thing is an idiot they have a smart lawyer.

That's mostly men pretending to be women. The women pretending to be men and putting cucumbers in their pants (to pretend they have something) have a different array of mental illnesses.

But they are not threatening anyone with rape for disagreeing with them, because... big surprise, that is not what women do.
