CHICAGO, November 10 /Christian Newswire/ -- Americans For Truth reacted to the news that an Obama Administration will likely enact "gender identity" as a nondiscrimination category by questioning whether federal female employees will be protected from transsexual men wearing dresses who demand to use ladies' restrooms on the basis of their self-perceived "female identity."

"Men who believe they are women, and vice versa, will be officially protected based under Obama on the basis of their 'gender identity' (read: gender confusion)," said Peter LaBarbera, president of Americans For Truth about Homosexuality. "Cross-dressing, 'male-to-female' activists already demand the right to use female restrooms on the basis of this same notion of 'gender identity'-based rights. So will an Obama Administration allow these big-boned men in female clothing to use ladies' restrooms in federal buildings?

"What will a President Obama do to protect the right to privacy of female federal workers who don't want men wearing dresses – with male genitalia – sharing their women's restroom?" LaBarbera said. "Will a President Obama request funds from Congress to embark on an ambitious 'Transgender Restroom Construction Project' to build special "trans" bathrooms in government buildings – so as not to subject female employees to sexual harassment and violations of their privacy?"

The ACLU is commending the Obama for including "gender identity" in its hiring criteria, calling it a "bold departure from the past." The news is circulating on homosexual-oriented websites and e-mail discussion groups, increasing the likelihood that many men and woman embracing gender-confused "identities" will be applying for jobs in an Obama Administration.

The online Obama-Biden job application site stipulates that the presidential transition agency "does no discriminate" on the basis of "gender identity," among other categories. President-elect Obama has boasted not only of his strong support for homosexual activist policy goals, but also transsexual rights ("gender identity" nondiscrimination). Obama supported a pro-transgender homosexual rights bill as an Illinois state senator, and backs the more liberal, transgender-inclusive version of the federal Employment Nondiscrimination Act (ENDA).
