I'm with you. I even have some questions. I lost my best-friend-questioning-first-nations-friend and fault myself for not going down this rabbit hole.
I think the community is interested in the fashionable choices. Not so much the explorations and education.
If you are just looking for any ally I am. If you are being factious, it's an old joke. Probably was so funny the first time I heard it I kicked the slats out of my cradle.
Thank you for this. I hope you and your friend can patch things up eventually. I'm not good at discussing things like this at all, so I can understand when people don't take my question seriously or think I'm just trolling. In America at least I feel like the media and politics want to be focused on what makes people different and not what makes us alike.
Sadly he is gone. I hope it was a choice due to much larger looming medical challenges but I do not know.
It seems like all societal discussions in this country are centered around popular talking points and that if you are concerned with things that are outside those talking points you must be a troll.
