Edit: Sorry for any spelling mistakes or grammar errors, I wrote this while tired, which causes me blurry vision.
It's Transphobia, that's what it is, all of it. There's no logical reason to FIRST target this as a budget cut, like wtf.
Within the past week or two, I've basically have been accepting the fact that I'm transgender, after literal years of questioning. It's shit like this that makes me want to closet myself back in. Why is it not normal for people to just simply have respect (human decency!) For people's varying sexualities and gender identities. It's not hurting anyone.
It may be easily seen as entirely sexual, but it's really not, because that's really correlated to love, features of your body, etc. But there so much more to it than that. All of this is normal for human beings to do, it's only been thought of being normalized in recent years, and people are just now finding comfort in being open about it.
I just want everyone to be able to (within reason) be comfortable, confident, and be open about who they love, what they feel about themselves, how they want to express themselves. And I don't mean making entire personalities about it (I think some of us have to be more involved about it, because we have to fight to exist), but not making or going out of your way to discomfort them.
Let us live, in peace, please. We don't want to hurt anybody.
I simply just didn't think of it. I also said "Gotcha." to the other dude, acknowledging their side is (from what I can see and understand) is right. I rest my case. I'll edit my messages too.
Can someone help me out here? I'm lost.
