This entire discussion from Texas makes me sick — What happened to the ‘treat others as you would want to be treated?’ Why is there so much hate? I just don’t get it.

The milk of human kindness is not strange. It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven - except in the US Bible Belt Red states towards anyone significantly different or even for harboring " strange " ideas. I butchered the Bard of Avon, but it was for a good cause. I think that Shakespeare would give me a pass here.

In about 1992, my "audio guy" from TV told me in a midnight rain-shining parking lot that he "knew I knew" [I had zero clue] that in his heart he had always been a woman from when he was a child. I nodded sagely & we hugged. She made the change & was clearly whole & truly happy tho Stunned by the Abyss of Misogyny she was now exposed to (by people who had no idea she was trans, only that she was a woman). She could NOT believe how women endured the Ceaseless Rubbish. Seeing her as her true self, tho, is a highlight of joy in my life.

The amputation of healthy organs from children too mentally and emotionally immature to drink, drive, vote, marry, serve in the armed forces, or sign a binding legal contract is 100% valid! They're unable to give consent to all those other things, of course, they're much too young for that.
