[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm solidly for Spanberger, no question there.

For Lt Gov, though, I HATE that Hashmi is for the Tyson's casino, so I'm thinking of voting for Reid. I looked at his website and [b]except for not supporting trans kids[/b], I liked his platform.

For AG, I really think I will write in a candidate or not vote. I cannot vote for either of them and I'm sick of voting for the Democrat just because. I think that's the problem on both sides across our country.

Convince me otherwise - I'm going to early vote next week. [/quote]

I am appalled by your ability to just brush that off. Do you know any trans kids? Or trans adults, for that matter? [/quote]

Hate to break this to you but most Americans prioritize other issues like the economy, health care coverage, and immigration FAR higher than trans issues. [/quote]

Why do republicans hate trans people so much? I don't understand it. I don’t see other people’s medical choices or what they choose to wear as my business. [/quote]

It’s a reality issue. I literally don’t care what someone does with their health or body or gender or sexuality. But people who ignore biological reality are weird and dangerous. They are legislating on misrepresented science. That is scary. What’s to stop them from doing it with literally any other issue if they do it for this?[/quote]

I mean, religious people do this every single day. The right has set its sights on birth control now that they have abortion banned at 6 weeks in many states. No “baby” is surviving being born at six weeks and yet women are being forced to die to “save” them. To say nothing of the torture that is conversion therapy for gay people. You are born gay. Penguins are born gay. It’s part of nature’s way.

The reality is gender and sex is a lot more complicated than the religious right lets on. I don’t know that it is any more complicated than it used to be but my aunt born in 1950 has the build of a 10-year old boy and lacks a uterus, and no one calls her anything other than a woman. [/quote]
