Transsexuals, dress codes, and the law

2001-07-23 17:30:45+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Interesting Find Law Forum on Transsexuals, dress codes, and the law, about the legal maze that gender dysphoria poses to anti-discrimination law, where sexual orientation discrimination doesn't come into play, and how Title VII allows employers to maintain sex-specific dress and grooming codes. Mentioned as an exception to that is Price Waterhouse v. Hopkins because that ruling was made based on expected behavior, not appearance.
