We’re talking about deviant behavior in the USA, not the Middle East, Asia, Africa, or Europe.

Op is from the middle east.

And I live in Boston. You'd be surprised how many immigrants are extremely socially conservative. Give them a generation and they'll be Republicans

Weed, anal, tattoos (esp visible or neck/face), sex toys, stomach-bearing shirts, long nails and nail polish on men.
Openly disclosing mental health diagnoses, treatment, and meds, disclosing assault/CSA, sex work.

I think all of those are for the good! They allow more people to embrace who they are, fully.

Where are you from? Almost all these things are still deviant in US.

Well there it is. Barely a page and a half before someone had to throw their transphobe hate in. It's becoming kind of a sport. The Godwin's law of DCUM

Oh I tried to research perhaps a fine in Ancient Rome but found this gem instead:

Abstract
Today we view the ancient world through a highly sanitized lens. In reality, the Roman world was a filthy, malodorous, and unhealthy place. This article focuses on ancient toilet habits and toilet facilities, with special consideration of the situation in Roman Palestine and rabbinic Judaism. The toilet habits at Qumran—where excrement was considered a source of impurity, defecating on the Sabbath was prohibited, and the sectarians practiced toilet privacy—are exceptional for antiquity. In contrast, rabbinic Judaism did not associate excrement and defecation with ritual impurity. The final sections of the article discuss the toilet in the temple of Jerusalem and its priests’ toilet habits, as well as Jesus’ position on the impurity of excrement.

Wait so you think the majority of people in the us DON’T think it’s deviant?

The comment wasn’t that it is or isn’t, just that the majority of people think it is. That is not being transphobic. Though I realize that “transphobia” is not like “racism” - it’s pretty much lost all meaning and is thrown around at the drop of a hat.

Same sex relationships were never illegal.

Only sodomy and same-sex or polygamous marriage were illegal.

And the criminalization of sodomy applied to all sexual preferences and genders equally.
