Question

"persistent and marked distress about sexual orientation" are as free as anyone else to apply for jobs involving safety-critical work, then a backlog of people with "persistent and marked distress about sexual orientation" will be applying for jobs involving safety-critical work, so there is an obvious risk that unsuitable people will be recruited and projects will suffer, with safety implications for the purchasers of the supposedly safety-critical systems ?

Answer 1

sounds like the same reasons for backing all the support for Don't Ask, Don't Tell...It just sounds like some bogus company or legislatory stop gap measure for not allowing *certain people* to work or contribute there.

Answer 2

Sounds like we are back to the old CIA saw about homosexuals being a security risk. Someone who is in the early stages of sexual orientation reassignment might well be insufficiently stable for a high-stress high risk job (not to mention it is hard to walk the high steel in heels,) but jobs that involved security clearances or public safety (like police work) often have psyche evals required before an applicant can start working, so theoretically unstable people of any sort (including paranoid bigots, they are out there,) would be screened out of some forms of employment. But to put the issue on a sexual orientation/identification basis is to say "nut jobs who shoot up churches welcome, fairies not." and I would hardly say that is a formula for critical-safety.

Answer 3

Whatever...in your attempt to sound intelligent you've written a bunch of hooey.

Answer 4

The same could be said about people with "persistent and marked distress about" things that may or may not happen in the future.

If this is about so-called "national security", then I'd say that anyone who desires employment in that line, at this stage of the game, is a flat out, no question about it, security risk.
