Isn't it amazing all that we do here is smoke and mirrors? We have all of this training by all of these activists to make sure we act right in the workplace and tattle on those who don't act right!! We have all of these pronouns on our emails, zoom call backgrounds for every special interest and occasion. Donate millions to social causes and all of these flags flying and safe spaces everywhere!! Org health surveys that we spend so much money on to gauge the temperature of the front line employees and action p!an that to death!! But when push comes to shove when we fill out our health Insurance paperwork guess what? That's right only 2 boxes to check there, male or female!! Pure lip service plain and simp!e!!

Surprised that the company didn't make alternative gender boxes a priority. Believe me, I have LBGTQI friends, so hear me out. The company has been very LBGTQI friendly for 10+ years. The company legal probably has a full plate all day long and the gender boxes have probably been overlooked. I'm sure if you bring it to the executive chair for diversity, it will be fixed yesterday if the wheel is squeaking enough. I'm not really here to defend the LBGTQI community or the company. Just keep in mind, they only pretend to care in an email, poster or PR advertisement. Just my two cents.
Valid, but I believe that is determined by the insurance provider, have two LGBT kids, and I appreciate where pep has come in a few years.
I'm so sorry your health insurance forms don't accommodate your place on the LGBTQ+ spectrum.
