Supporters emphasize the importance of equality\u200c and inclusion, stating\u200d that everyone, regardless of their gender identity, deserves\u2063 equal opportunities and should not be discriminated against.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, opponents of Yates&#8217;s rehiring argue that his gender identity\u2064 undermines traditional \u200cvalues and may influence impressionable students.
