簡介 | The New York Post reports the Metropolitan Transit Authority has ordered all subway personnel to refrain from addressing riders as “ladies and gentlemen.” Instead, staffers have been told they must use gender neutral words like riders, passengers, and everyone according to a memorandum obtained exclusively by the Post. Subway workers say political correctness has derailed the nation’s largest subway system. “They are trying to be politically correct,” one worker told the Post. “They are acknowledging that they have some transgender riders. They don’t want to offend. An MTA spokesperson told the Post that gender issues were a consideration for the move. |
