        The more obnoxious we are…the less likely they will ever accept us.

        I'm not for forcing my gayness on people. I'm not Rosa Parks...my gayness doesn't really give me a major disadvantage that I have to fight against and I'm not putting myself into the mindset that I'm a victim or a minority who needs some sort of social justice. I don't need their validation. I just want to be left to my own affairs.

          I guess I don't understand why there needs to be a separate  LGBT diversity video.  Why not just have a diversity training programs that includes all groups?

          Perhaps it is in direct response to employee attitudes?

          Then they should create a diversity training video that is inclusive of many different groups.  You can't say we need you to treat all groups equally but here  is  a video that teaches you how to treat gays equally.

            Well, it's either self loathing or self centered.

            A lot of people in the US are still affected by homophobic laws and homophobic people.

            Why should homophobes get special rights to discriminate against GLBTs, rather than everyone have equality?

              They deal with social security. The video could have been in reaction to the law change due to the supreme court ruling regarding same-sex marriages.  There were no such laws which stopped other minorities from claiming jointly which could be why there was no video for them.

              Without seeing the video or have insight into the companies reasoning for it their reasoning for it all we have to go on is this homophobe's notions of what the video he never watched might entail and other people's assumptions of what it entails. Comments from an employee who actually watched it would be helpful before we leap to conclusions on whether the video was warranted or not.
