Legal case in the UK, they are a bit further down this road than we are, apparently.

“may well be profoundly offensive and even distressing”, but said they “must be tolerated in a pluralist society”.

Science is profoundly offensive and even distressing.

No. To the Normals, her views "ARE profoundly reasonable, common-sensical, and quite uplifting"

“Offensive speech”. “Hate speech”. These are tactics of the Left to get around the First Amendment (US). 1A gives you the right to be ‘offensive’. It does not give anyone the right to not be offended.

Yeah, if by "profoundly offensive and even distressing" you mean the God's truth.

Hmmmm...I need a family tribunal for this one: Our twenty-something nephew has decided he is a girl. He wears women’s clothing and hairdos, and has taken a girly name (legally changed? I didn’t ask). I’ve not heard if he’s had any surgery but assume hormones, because he’s showing tits. I still refer to him by his male name and decline to call him her or she. This is upsetting to some family members; my attitude is “tough $hit”. Since these are my wife’s family it creates some tension.

He was an Eagle Scout, and I wonder if a homosexual scout leader turned him.
