Sorry for the terrible topic title. Department of Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller issued a memo with that specific statement.

From the memo -
An employees appearance should reflect the culture, dignity, and professionalism of the Texas Department of Agriculture. All employees, regardless of assignment, are expected to present themselves in a professional manner that cultivates a favorable impression from coworkers, other government officials, agency customers and the general public. Employees are expected to comply with this dress code in a manner consistent with their biological gender. Basic elements for appropriate attire across the board consist of clothing that is in neat and clean condition

In a previous topic Totalnerdken had asked where trans freedom of speech was being violated - I didn't get a chance to reply but this (dress) was one example.

It sounded fine up until that part of it. Hope the workers challenge that in court, because fuck that.

So according to Texas this guy should wear a dress and continue to go into womens bathrooms:

If you didn't know this guy is biologically born as female

This is not about protecting women or any sort of "professional manner". It's just punishing trangenders and trying to remove them from society.

It's not about logic, it's about being a dick to transgender people

The words "biological gender" should be an immediate disqualifier, as that is not a thing that fucking exists

Conservatives don't actually care about any of these values. They just weaponize them against liberals and leftists to claim that they don't care about these values. That way, every time Democrats try to implement common sense shit like firearm regulation, they can claim they're being "big government" and rile up uneducated voters who actually do (superficially) care about these values.

I'd be explicitly doing this if I lived in Texas. And there's not shit they'd be able to do about it.

The problem is another part of the memo says females *shouldn't* dress provocatively... and that all of this is up to supervisor discretion >.<
