To clarify they didn't ask me my sexual orientation as an employee, I was talking about a notice saying that the state is going to add those questions to all the applications for welfare benefits. I was working in the state's welfare office. But yes, it's wrong to ask that question in any of these contexts. Totally insane.
It is appalling that ANY employer feels they have the right to ask your sexual orientation!
Unless, of course, one is employed in the sex trade. I suppose it could be relevant there.
