Scenario

When shared identity doesn't prevent workplace boundary violations

I work for a progressive nonprofit but my lesbian supervisor keeps making assumptions about my dating life and politics because I'm also a lesbian and it feels weird but I don't know if I can complain.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Common marginalized identity can mask inappropriate assumptions and behaviors that still constitute professional misconduct.
