This was the turning point where I started actively defending gays about two decades ago. Before then I didn’t really care I was younger and it wasn’t really in my life.
But if you’re going to tell me that some middle/high schooler is going to choose bullying by assholes by announcing (or someone finding out) that they’re gay there’s no fucking way you’re going to tell me that’s by choice. Leave the damn kid alone.
Of course there’s more details than that but that’s the gist of it. It’s hard enough as it is leave them alone, it’s none of your business.
IMO, being trans would be bad even if other people were all supportive. Transitioning is a lot of effort and no one ever wants to have dysphoria.
