    Ooo yeah let’s be concerned over the, what .002% of our population doing things they wanna do and being who they wanna be. Yeah that’s a big talking point when 80% of the rest of the country can’t afford rent.

    Fuck. Just leave trans people alone already Jesus Christ…

      I was about to say its’s 0.75% for USA, but your are probably right once you factor in how many Trans people then have to care about getting into a sport.

      USA seems to think every citizen plays or watches sports.

      I have had coworkers and randos ask if I saw the game last night, so I have to ask which game? They mention a football/hockey/baseball game. I reply that I don’t watch team sports. They then continue to talk about the game like I’m a decades old fan catching up on what I missed. At this stage I’ve tuned out the details and am actually wondering how their whole life centers around somebody elses accomplishments in a city they have never been to. And also wondering how they missed the cue that I’m not interested in sports.

      But that is USA; identity based on guns and sports. Trans somehow becomes an attack on their identity.
