While LGBTQ candidates and their supporters celebrated several milestone victories around the nation in this year’s midterm elections, California quietly reached its own: At least 10% of its state lawmakers identify publicly as LGBTQ, believed to be a first for any U.S. legislature.

The California legislators, all Democrats, are proud of their success but say it underscores the hard work that remains in their own state and elsewhere, such as handling the fallout from measures such as Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” law, which bans some lessons on sexual orientation and gender identity, or laws in other states limiting transgender students’ participation in sports or blocking gender-affirming medical care for youths.

How about declaring that 90% are heterosexual? There’s a headline.

Thirty years ago gender dysphoria was a mental illness. Nothing has changed. At least 10 percent of the Californicator legislature is mentally ill.

Yup. They all rolled there in the last century from the rest of the country. Now California is starting to return the favor. It's even worse, since the fruits and nuts that went there have been intermarrying for 100 years.

The legislature doesn’t seem to be exactly representative of the populace.

Being “different” is a hoot until you have to go home at night and pay the piper.
