Lesbian discrimination is a type of discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender. It is a form of prejudice. It is also not against the law in many of the states and cities of the United States. Lesbian discrimination is found in school and in the workplace. While school policies may discourage and prevent any form of lesbian discrimination, it may still be legal in the workplace. In fact, a majority of states do not have legislation protecting any form of employment discrimination against lesbians, gays or transgenders. Legally, an employer in these states, may fire a lesbian employee for her sexual orientation. If you or someone you know is experiencing lesbian discrimination at school or the workplace, it is a good idea to contact a lawyer to discover what can be done to prevent it.
