My hot take: I find transgenderism to be weird. I don't get it. It weirds me out. I suspect I'm incapable of understanding.

Here's the thing though: it doesn't matter what I think. None of my fucking business. They can do what they want. Why is this a national issue?!? I find it weird, yes, but building a political ideology around hating them for it, that's WAY weirder. And more dangerous.

Americans love freedom right? I'm having trouble thinking of anything more free than waking up a man and going to sleep a woman. Yes, I find it odd. But I'll fight to the death their right to practice their flavor of odd.
