I have met a few of these people. And, of those I have met, they appear to be the opposite sex of what they want us to think they are. Trans whatever “women”,look like men in drag. Which is not surprising since they were born male.
Considering that they appear to be the opposite of what they want us to think they are, they have a lot of audacity to be angry at us for not correctly understanding what “gender identity” they are trying to convey to us. They are the ones who are deciding to go against how the rest of society construes gender appearances. Yet the 99% of us who aren’t with it in this area are the bad guys. Go figure.
If they want to play Let’s Pretend, that’s their business. It is not, however, reasonable to expect us to move to the Kingdom of Make-Believe with them.
"I'm not Alanis Morissette! I'm Captain Jack Sparrow! You, know that guy Johnny Depp played!"
The “it” in the article wouldn’t have been so shocked if it hadn’t become accustomed to people nursemaiding and humoring its mental illness.
