The term gender identity means the gender-related identity, appearance, mannerisms, or other gender-related characteristics of an individual, regardless of the individual’s designated sex at birth. The term including means including, but not limited to, consistent with the term’s standard meaning in Federal law. The term natural hair includes— protective and natural hairstyles, which includes braids, locs, weaves, twists, afros; and natural hair texture, which includes wavy, kinky, curl, and coily, and also the variation of texture in between.

The term sexual orientation means an individual’s actual or perceived romantic, physical, or sexual attraction to other persons, or lack thereof, that includes heterosexuality, homosexuality, and bisexuality. In providing a remedy under this Act: In the case of any conduct alleged to be discriminatory on the basis of sex, the remedy under this Act for such conduct, to the extent it pertains to pregnancy, childbirth, or a related medical condition may not result in a less substantial remedy than any other remedy for discrimination on the basis of sex. In the case of any conduct alleged to be discriminatory on the basis of sex (with respect to gender identity), an individual shall not be denied access to a shared facility, including a restroom, a locker room, and a dressing room, that is in accordance with the individual’s gender identity. Nothing in this title shall be construed to limit the claims or remedies available to any individual for an unlawful practice on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin including claims brought pursuant to section 1979 or 1980 of the Revised Statutes ( 42 U.S.C. 1983 , 1985) or any other law, including the Federal law amended by the Customer Non-Discrimination Act, regulation, or policy. Nothing in this title shall be construed to support any inference that any Federal law prohibiting a practice on the basis of sex does not prohibit discrimination on the basis of pregnancy, childbirth, or a related medical condition, sexual orientation, gender identity, or a sex stereotype. A reference in this title to an establishment— shall be construed to include an individual whose operations affect commerce and who is a provider of a good, service, or program; and shall not be construed to be limited to a physical facility or place.
