[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 6003174, member: 12952"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-14025427/brandy-livingston-sues-hooters-rejected-job-appearance.html[/URL] Speaking with [URL='https://www.news10.com/top-stories/transgender-woman-sues-local-hooters-for-discrimination/']News10[/URL], Livingston said she was not respected as a woman at the establishment, alleging that workers actively discriminated against her. On her being denied employment, she added: 'I said, do you want to see my experience or anything? Because I had previous jobs I had written down. 'And he said, “Oh, we don’t care about experience. We hire on the basis of personality. And there’s an image that needs to be met".' Livingston said that she had also heard employees and a manager at the restaurant harass her about using their restroom. She claimed: 'I overheard one of the servers after I left the restroom talking to one of the managers and said that, "Why are you allowing him in the women’s restroom?" 'And the manager said, "Oh, I don’t like it any more than you do".' Livingston filed a claim with the New York State Division of Human Rights who investigated, and found evidence her rights may have been violated. [/QUOTE]
