Commentary: The importance of protecting gender expression
"Autumn Sandeen writes that unless nondiscrimination laws specifically include protections for gender expression, and not just gender identity or sexual orientation, effeminate men and masculine women could find themselves unprotected and subject to being fired. That's one reason why working toward the broadest possible laws and policies makes sense for everyone under the LGBT "sociopolitical umbrella," according to Sandeen."
