  They listed the protected classes. Which one is astrology?

    Yeah yeah not protected, but same could be said for requiring blond hair or blue eyes. Still discrimination

    I am not a lawyer

      They did specifically list genetics

        How is that different from any other accident of birth that can’t be changed? People really do discriminate based on when you were born:

        • Discrimination in China
        • Zodiac shaming

        Not hard to extrapolate a case from this. Imagine a landlord refusing to rent because you’re a “scorpio” or an employer turning you down because they’re looking for a “dog” person.

      Because requiring blond hair and blue eyes would, by definition, exclude people based on race.

        Not necessarily true, but 100% discrimination based on genetics, which is a protected class.
