    Yeah, I assumed Kentucky would be banning something positive. I’m surprised that the state would make it harder to punish people for the crime of being queer.

        When I read “[Republican state] bans ____ for youth,” it tends to be something to do with removing protections for queer people, especially trans people. As a trans person myself, I have strong feelings about that. Apologies for posting right before I had to leave for work and making a mistake. Feel free to assume that I’m ‘irritatingly horrible’, I am used to it, because I encounter plenty of queerphobia.

          I didnt call you horrible. I just called the comment horrible in case you had meant it in the way it was perceived by the people here including myself.

          Mistakes happen, i just wanted to be sure that i understood you correctly before passing my judgement.

            I wish everyone was more like you in this regard (and probably others)!
