    As long as children keep dying from measles, this is a wonderful distraction!

    Easy loophole: Just identify as your gender. Trans women are just women now. Trans men are just men now.

      My theory is that anyone who’s bothered by gay/trans/etc people is a closeted something and doesn’t want to be reminded of their own insecurities.

        They can’t fucking stand that they are required to hide whatever seriously fucked up thing that they are into, and think everyone should have to suffer.

        They’re terrified of seeing an attractive woman and later learning she has a dick, ✨ making them gay ✨

        In most decent states there’s been a ton of progress. I never claimed we were always perfect. No country has been.

        The sad thing is that Mango Mussolini would be stupid enough to actually pass something like that.
