It's important to me, a trans person, that I'm allowed to take my medicine, use the bathroom that aligns with my gender, and be addressed with my chosen pronouns. But I don't matter to you, I'm just a freak and the source of your problems.

You don't matter to me because I don't know you. You are not the source of any of my problems. You aren't that important.

I don't know where you live. Come to Boston. People will bend over backwards to give you a job because every company is desperate to prove how diverse their workforce is. Our governor is a lesbian and pro-queer. Of course, the big catch is, if you want to live here, you better be rich. We don't want poor queer/trans people here, only wealthy ones! I have had quite a few trans/queer friends in my decade living here. But I have also known shitty trans people who I hate because they are whiny entitled people who treated me and other people horrible, including violence and rape. I have no clue if you are a good person or a shitty person, you could be either. Being trans doesn't automatically make you special or good in my book though, it is meaningless to me. You probably also care a lot more about what's between my legs than I do.

Sucks that other states hate trans people, but I don't live there and I have no say in their government policies.

It doesn't sound like people would bend over backwards to give me a job. I work in a factory and live in a trailer. They bend over backwards to give rich people jobs, and it has literally nothing to do with being queer. You're getting mad about gender, but you should be mad about inequality.

Just as planned.
