Question? When will the ethical male firefighters stand up and show the unethical firemen how to treat female firefighters? At the Los Angeles Fire Department, female firefighters are being treated lower than animals only because they want to be respected as human beings who deserve equal rights as the male firefighters in doing their jobs. With all the fires that are happening especially in California, the state needs all the firefighters it can muster up during these catastrophic times. What are these male firefighters thinking or not thinking? One of the female firefighters may be the very one to save one of their lives. Fate has a way of showing humanity how insensitive one can be and how we all need each other.

2021, while women have come a long way in society functioning in various jobs, but some misogynistic firemen have proven there are yet some ways to go for acceptance. Female firefighters have being hazed and retaliated against by some male firefighters at the Los Angeles Fire Department, learned during a recent city commission hearing. During this hearing, it was brought to the committee and the public attention that when female firefighters were subjected to retaliation of the most horrible type when they stood up for equal justice.

Some of the female firefighters have been driven out of the fire department due to inhuman cruelty. Along with defecation on the bathroom floors, one had “junk” written on her helmet, destruction of the women’s bathroom, sexual harassment, and urine on the floor, these firemen made it clear that some female firefighters were not welcomed in this firemen created and very unsavory work environment.

Along with a hostile environment created by hostile firemen, female firefighters have a distrust in the department’s complaint system, thereby causing many to suffer in silence as there is a stronger desire to keep their job in the face of much madness at the hands of some male firefighters.

Some female firefighters face much humiliation just like many minorities or people of color who are dealt a similar fate of harassment and retaliation at the Los Angeles Fire department.

These attrotcies happening at the fire department against women and minorities have caused Mayor Garcetti to voice his displeasure of hearing of such discrimination and intimidation and is committed to necessary changes in this hostile environment.

As a result of the committee hearing, and the various testimonies, the city is committed and supporting those female firefighters who have the courage to stand up and speak out against intimidation and harassment.

According to past history, the fire department has had a history of incidents involving fecal matter and the harassment of Black firefighters who were served a similar fate as the female firefighters; feces placed in a compartment, harassment, retaliation, and race-based discrimination for having the courage to stand up against such cruelty, which is part of a 2018 lawsuit brought on by a Black male firefighter.

In conclusion, to have this problem in the public and court system is a major step for change. However, change does not happen overnight, as this type of behavior is probably so deeply embedded in the LA Fire department that it will practically take a bulldozer by the courts to unearth and eliminate such practices of hatred.
