Every "equal opportunity employer" in the states has a part of the application that's a dryer form of, "we're working towards equal opportunity, so please tell us what you consider to be your race as well as which gender you identify with and which you prefer to have sex with, which we promise are completely work-relevant questions because we care so much about representation and pinky promise this information won't be used in any other way".

Seems completely backwards to me, but I've seen it on quite a few job application forms.
