J. Crew Discriminates Against Transgender Applicants?

This is just awful!

Civil rights group Make the Road New York sent two subjects, one transgender and one not, to apply for jobs at 24 different stores.

Out of all the stores that were applied to J. Crew treated the potential transgender employee unfairly, but when it came to the other applicant they offered them the job.

After the results, the civil rights group staged a protest outside the company's Fifth Avenue store.

Also worth noting is Dean & Deluca was the only store to offer jobs to both applicants and Virgin Megastore only offered the job exclusively to the transgender subject.

Sad.
