Wait, I think you’re misunderstanding a bit. The culture of professionalism ALREADY inherently represses non-straight people (and allows straight people privilege to be who they want). For example, men suits women dresses. There is no culture of professionalism that I know of that gives the privilege to all people. Like a dress code would be fine if it wasn’t obviously biased towards certain culture standards (in this case, western/white, straight).

Edit: to put it another way, professionalism in the case of clothing for example would be more fair if there could be a professional qipao, or professional burka, rather than only a professional western option aka the suit.


Great job. I could scarcely describe the failures of multiculturalism better if I tried.


what?!?! you have clear bias so this is pointless. A descriptive - factual - term has nothing to do with excluding one race or class of people.

I'm gay. That does not mean that every non gay man is excluded ffs
