Abstract
In recent years, there has been a surge of anti-LGBTQ+ laws in the United States. These laws undoubtedly reinforce cisheteropatriarchal ideologies that heterosexuality and gender conformity are the only acceptable ways of being, while other forms of sexuality and gender identity are unnatural, immoral, and deserve punishment. Given that the workplace, mirroring the broader society, exhibits the prejudices and preconceptions that are ingrained in our cultural milieu, it is incumbent upon human resource development (HRD) education to expose students to the ways in which cisheteropatriarchy structures workplaces so, as HRD practitioners, they can work towards disrupting it.
