I cannot believe a person not vote for Trump after going through with heartbreaking of having a trans identifying kid. It’s baffling.

Trump’s all about hate. Hate for the foreign, hate for the different, hate for the weak, hate for the poor, hate for the empathetic, hate for the soldier, the veteran, and any woman with an opinion she didn’t get from the pulpit, her husband, or her father.
Don’t let go of the next bite of food you put through the garbage disposal.

What the fuck do you think is going to happen? Trump takes office and your kid is magically not trans? Or do you just see this as permission to beat the shit out of them?
Or that Trump’s gonna declare something like “You know all those Population 0 ghost towns around the country? In not long, I’m gonna issue an Executive Order making all of them Reservations for all the LGBTQIAwhatever! The start of them having their own society, far away from us normal people!!”?
When a person learns that a close family member is trans it definitely stirs a huge range of emotions. I’m not here to question the validity of them. I also feel like the LGBTQ+ community could do better at letting people have the space to work through those emotions because the people who oppose our existence defiantly take advantage of this to recruit people to their cause.
But this is also the exact same language that was used by those opposed to the rights of cis-gays and lesbians. It’s the same language that was used by those who oppose interracial relationships that are cis hetero normative. So, the hate remains the same, it’s just who their particular target is that changes.
I’ve never had any children, and I don’t plan to have any anytime soon, but if I did and they turned to be transgender, I wouldn’t love them any less, or consider it a “heartbreak.”
Confused?
