Like Dr. Moore, I’m pretty confident that the anti-trans culture warriors will eventually be the losers, but I don’t think we’re close to that yet.
Yeah, though I sense trans-acceptance is on the exponential part of the s-curve. My son’s best friend just came out as a girl. No one in their friend group cares. Same person, is what they say. I’m proud of them.

Could very well be. I’m not concerned about my daughter’s peers at all. And when that generation is in charge, it simply won’t be an issue. But R politicians always pick a boogie man, and right now Trans folks are a major target.

“Trans folks” are a major target? Where and how.

Do you distinguish between trans folks and liberal and progressive ideologies?

Speaking of boobs. Why is cosmetic surgery to change one’s appearance, to include genitalia (labiaplasty, butthole bleaching, dong straightening, etc.) cool with Mormons, but a trans surgery isn’t? If you’re not happy with what God gave you, why don’t Trans people get similar consideration?

Where are the hair shirts, the racks, and the iron maidens of yesterday? Are non-LDS faith traditions growing soft? The LDS Church still has Stake Centers to burn heretics and witches.
