It's scary to me that these people have so much power in the US government. I live in a pretty left-leaning state, but how long until they manage to pass a law federally?
Not exactly a big reveal...
Amazing how you can specifically state American groups, as if the whole Middle East doesn’t do worse shit.
From greatest country in the world to: there is actually a worse country somewhere, even tho we liberated it for 20 years
The rest of the world will never care about trans rights, you have to accept that. It's seen as mental illness because it is mental illness to them. You have to build bridges with traditional cultures, but instead the typical response is "bigot!" which is precisely why nobody outside the US cares
Hatemongers like you are always so whiny and uneducated... talking about 'returning to tradition' until they actually learn about the traditions, then it's all 'not like that'.
Turns out many traditional cultures recognized a variety of trans and nonbinary genders, it's actually the bigotry that's new.
Well that's not true, they'll care eventually. Progress takes time, and just like being gay was and is in certain areas seen as a mental illness, eventually the stigma will be worn away until only the truly fanatical cultures still have issues with it.
It's also worth mentioning the conceptions of gender varies wildly cross culturally. Many cultures have millennia of trans acceptance pre-colonization. Truly the hegemonic obsession with gender is the anomaly in human history (i.e. shampoo...FOR MEN).
Are you saying America is the only place where people care about trans rights? 'Cause I gotta say, as a Canadian and a trans person, I'm SO glad I was born on this side of the border. I imagine I'd feel the same if I were born in (most of) western or northern Europe, Australia, New Zealand, etc. In my view, much of the US is absolutely full of vile bigotry towards trans folks, and only getting worse.
