I am all for the respect of differences but have we gone too far? This is the “footnote” from a company looking for new staff:
The [Company Name] is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate because of race, color, creed, religion, sex, marital status, domestic partner status, ancestry, national origin, weight, height, physical or mental handicap, pregnancy, medical condition, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, citizenship, veteran status, or age.

This is when I feel like I am a European that does not take a micro-community perspective on each thing. And not a legalistic one too!
