    A law didn’t stop the school in Texas from doing it… more than once… to the same kid.

    Hopefully it gets through this time

    Call your Reps and tell them how important it is to you that it gets through

      To be fair, we thought we were done with the KKK too, but the right is showing that they’ve only been hiding.

        For what it’s worth I’m a guy with a ponytail and I had a dudebro at a bar in Nebraska threaten to kill me because he thought that meant I was gay, so I suppose the saving grace is we’re not facing off against intellectuals on this front.

          Classic Nebraska. I started wearing pride clothing just to piss off the old fucks in restaurants, and I always give them a big old smile when they stare.

            Keep up the good work!

            I overheard a conversation between two old guys at the Omaha VA discussing one of their relatives coming out as nonbinary. The sentiment was, in essence, “well, are they gay or what? Idk what these damn kids are doing anymore…” After some internal debate, I piped up and explained the sexuality and gender are two separate topics. To these guys’ credit, they seemed to take it in stride, if a little befuddled by it all. Considering the other options and prevailing opinions of many of the patients around here, I’ll take a couple of Vietnam vets’ bewildered acceptance of non-cisgendered people over ignorant hate seven days a week, and twice on Sunday.

    It’s okay the GOP has already decided some light wordplay and bad faith concern trolling are enough to get around that law.
