It really is far reaching and very damaging.

That being said, all these issues that affect trans people

that you hear as a transgender issue, really, when you boil it down, are just about a regular person getting to have access to the things that we all need, housing, food, healthcare, a job.

That's what it means.

I don't want some trans discriminatory law to go out because it's gonna stop me from being able to hold a job, from being able to have fair housing, all these things that everyone fights for and should have in what's supposed to be a free country.

I know.

And that also coincides with all of the anti-trans bills and laws that are on the books is in Oklahoma.

You know, there is an obsession.

And I think that there's something to be said for people who are extremely conservative in any sort of like Western patriarchal society having, you know, like sort of these really, really, really strict laws.

what they would call moral values, that women should be this way, men are this way, and having this sort of binary thinking with everything.

Everything's just so black and white and simple.

And human beings are not simple.

Human beings are complex.

And so any human being, regardless of how you identify politically or sexually or in your gender identity, every human is complex.

And so even conservatives who subscribe to being extremely religious and extremely this and extremely just simple

All men are this.

All women are that.

Even conservatives can't really hold to that.

And so they end up doing what is more human.

Now, unfortunately, they end up betraying their humanity because they're actually attacking those people that they are either attracted to or drawn to.
