[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It seems like the right has accepted LGB and now has TQ+ in the crosshairs. I imagine a (somewhat) gender conforming lesbian in a big city will be fine.[/quote]

No way.

The right has TQ+ in the crosshairs because it's a softer target. LGB is in the blast radius. [/quote]

This is true. My trans friends are terrified. Trump’s language about trans people has been reminiscent of interwar Germany. They are afraid of being rounded up and put into camps.  If you have trans friends call them up and offer support. [/quote]

Even the conservatives in this country are so libbed up that they can't admit that they hate transgender people. They'll say things like, "I don't hate trans people, I just believe that..." and "I don't hate or want them to die but...". The religious right is invested in thinking they're good people. Once they're sending trans people to camps, they won't be able to claim they're the good ones any longer. Once the right in general starts just saying they hate people that are trans, gay, LGBTQ, queer, gay, etc then I'd start worrying about camps.

All that being said, I think trans people are going to be banned from playing all sports. They can't ban trans people from participating in local recreational sports but I wouldn't be surprised if they try to make a cultural shift where trans people aren't even allowed to play ultimate frisbee in with mixed teams.
