More JC Penny's
The post entitled "Is J.C. Penny's" Transphobic?" generated quite a bit of interest here as well as elsewhere.
This comment from "Annah" is very enlightening and I thought worth re-posting it on it's own:
"as a formal employee, I have to say with a big resounding NO that JC Penney is not trans phobic.
When I was hired there, they did everything in their power (before my name was legally changed) to keep my legal name confidential. Everything was set up to accommodate me. They went above and beyond their own experiences to help me.
People need to be careful when a person offends them to not put the blame on an entire company.
JC Penney rates 100% on the LGBT equality index.
I would contact a manager rather than assuming they are inconsiderate to trans people.
This isn't just coming from my own opinions, but this is coming from a person who worked there up until December 2011."
Thanks so much for contributing such an insightful comment. That was why I specifically was careful not to indite the entire company!
