A Delta Airlines employee has garnered widespread support after a video surfaced of his encounter with a transgender-identifying individual who was outraged for being “misgendered.”
Transgender activist Tommy Dorfman, who is associated with controversial transgender figure Dylan Mulvaney, recently posted a video to his TikTok complaining about a Delta Airlines employee who “misgendered” him.
The video, recorded by Dorfman, records an interaction between the transgender activist and a Delta employee. The altercation begins with Dorfman telling the employee he “misgendered” him, followed by the employee’s refusal to cooperate with Dorfman’s insistence on being referred to as a “she” instead of a “he.”
“You just misgendered me again, multiple times, both of you have,” Dorfman complained.
When Dorfman condemned the employee for not using female pronouns and “misgendering” him, the employee responded, “It wasn’t intentional, but if you want to take it personal, that’s also okay.”
The Delta employee further responded to Dorfman’s attitude by threatening to escort him out of the building for his behavior.
“You’re being condescending and if you want to continue, I have full authority to escort you out the building right this moment if you want to play that game with me,” the employee stated. “Would you like to continue three days before Christmas? I really don’t mind.”
Dorfman, taken aback by the employee’s assertiveness, quietly responded, “I’m good.”
Despite Dorfman initially sharing the video online to condemn the Delta employee, social media users overwhelmingly supported the employee for standing up against the “narcissistic” behavior.
Delta Airlines has a long history of being pro-LGBTQ and catering to the demands of transgender ideologues. The airline does not use the phrase “ladies and gentlemen” when addressing passengers, and its travel system allows passengers to select an unspecified sex when booking tickets.
It remains to be seen if the airline will condemn its employee for how he responded to this altercation. Many individuals rightfully pointed out online that this Delta employee should not face consequences for how he responded to the situation, but should instead be applauded for his refusal to bend a knee to this individual’s demands.
